Tips & Strategies
On land they are relatively easy to defeat if you have a Bow. When you can use Pikes, Swords, and other stuff, you can defeat a Sarco using melee.
In the water, they will circle around you and make things difficult. Confront on land ONLY (if possible).
Standing on rocks usually does not help, as a Sarco can just lung at you and knock you off you little perch. Shoot the creature with Arrows and keep backing up. You may need to turn around and sprint a bit to stay ahead of it. You CAN outrun a Sarco on land.
If you kill one, make sure you harvest all the useful hide, meat, and Sarco Skin (a trophy).
At level 21 I had over 5 Sarco Skins, many from Sarcos with 10+ levels.

If u see one of these go kill it or tame it they are a pain if they are on your island I have had these constantly spawn right where I live but thankfully I set up a nice spike wall along with watch towers be careful around these AND KEEP YOUR DINOS AWAY I learned my lesson already when it took down my first Dino my otter called cuddles.... please click up to pay respects.....
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 sarcoβs corpse just flew into the air. man, that dodo was a trooper
The sarco is very easy to escape, considering it's slow movement speed on land, but don't get to comfortable. And don't go into water with one around, they are VERY fast In water. I would recommend taming a high level one, they are , like I said fast in water, and overpowered for how easy they are to tame. Highly recommend.
If you want to kill a sarcosuchus, you need a dodo armee. Or a dinosaur armee. Just tame 10 dinos etc. That's the easiest way (I think so)
Warning! These guys are kind of broken in asa as sometimes they canβt attack out of water and have many other issues. Just hold off on taming these in asa until they are fixed.
Interior crocodile, alligator. I drive a Chevrolet movie theater
It's death roll attack is so scary when you are on the receiving end, just fighting through the swamp and suddenly half the screen is a mouth π
Just takes a 140 and I canβt do any damage with it in ascended. I might get lucky and a little bit of damage here and there but the attack on it is messed up. It is still super fast in the water though
Big croc is mean
In the Wirithing Swamp poem:
Leeches are nuisances.
Meganeuras a rude.
IF YOU SEE SARCOS, YOU ARE DOOMED.
