Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved Companion

Tips & Strategies

The sarco has a variety of moves that can make it dangerous so I recommend learning it’s moves before you fight it. While ridden you can turn the camera and then press attack to make the sarco spin around and attack making up for its lousy turn radius. Like modern day crocodiles it can also do the death roll. The sarco grabs a small creature in its jaws and spins itself around doing lots of damage. If the death roll misses its target the sarco will instead lunge forward.

my dodo (lvl 4 at the time, thought he was dead until i whistled my other dinos to follow me) was apparently in the direction of the sarco (lvl 5). he walked right into the sarco and i was convinced he was dead meat. until the sarco’s corpse just flew into the air. man, that dodo was a trooper
Sarcos spawn around my base (Stonehedge) so I tame or kill them

Leeches are nuisances.
Meganeuras a rude.
IF YOU SEE SARCOS, YOU ARE DOOMED.
Only go near one its out of the water. Try to avoid them if you are a beginner. If one charges stay away from the water. It may seem slow, but it can lunge with shocking speed. Do not climb on a rock, it can lunge and bite you. Run away and stay on land. Sprinting helps.
