What are tips for sarco? Tips and strategies for sarco in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Use TWO large bear traps and tranq to your hearts content
These puppies are a semi-noob's best friend. Find them in swamps and near water holes. They really open up the map to you when you're a noob as they allow you to traverse waterways quite easily and quickly. All you need are some tranquil arrows and a decent distance and some raw meat. I've personally tamed 3 of them. They are also very useful for traveling up coasts and collecting lots of meat from dodos and scouting out those rounded rocks that give good metal. 10/10 my favorite dino.
I don’t know whats all the bad reviews about this sarco they are so easy tame (If your on on a high level) and so easy to kill just get on a high rock or back up while shooting arrows or Slingshots at it
Hello, I see.these guys always frightens you... Don't worry I got some tips .
1:Find one,they usually spawn near swamp or beaches
2:go near sarco, Then run quickly to some herbivorus animals like parasaur dodo etc..(Not trike btw it will kill it)
3: These beasts always gets distracted so take that wooden club in your hand
Then yeet him while he's attacking other creatures it will get unconscious make sure you have a weapon like bow
4: I suggest giving fish meat inside it's inventory And some narcotics too( maybe 3 or 5 based upon level)
5:Then boom you got your new Friend
I don't know which level is need for saddle
Up if it helped :)

All it takes is a couple tranq arrows and you good I recommend raw fish meat but always have regular prime meant just in case
Dumb turning rates on land so BEAT IT WITH 3 CLUBS but if it’s a higher level like 50 40 30 you might want to use some tranqs
Remember, you don’t always have to find them in the swamps.
Use Prime Meat To Tame The Sarco
Just don't go hunting in the swamp alone (Hopefully this is common sense). If you bring a decent raptor it'll destroy the sarco and even a carbonemys can do it on land. It isn't that hard to engage unless you're in the water. If you do fight it, just be aware of you're surroundings. I got attacked by two titanoboas once while fighting it. Didn't end well. However, my raptor killed all three of them by the time I got back. That's why I say raptors are great for mid level players going on a hunting trip.
Its waste to build a tamming pan for it. To knock out just walk backwards and hit his head with the tranq and the job is done
Very easy early game tame but make sure to lure it away from the swamps because of kapros, other sarcos and titanoboas
If you want to tame a sarco run up to it don’t aim for the head aim for the belly because the sarco has bad aim that’s how I tamed a sarco with my hands and named it snappy
