These are super easy to tame due to being slow on land. just run ahead of them and shoot tranqs (don’t get too close though because they can hit further than you think!)
mkay is it just me or has a mother ducker came to a tiny island aka MY BASE and it’s miles away from the swamps like how the quack did it get there like what the hell? Did god just like hmmmm that looks like a good base to attack or what bc no star o would spawn miles away from the SWAMP
To the guy that said “ DO NOT listen to the person who wrote the following comment: “DO NOT tame in the lower south cave. It will get stuck on the way out and be trapped there forever.”. If it can’t (which will most likely be the case if tamed down there, because (in my experience) Sarcos struggle just entering the cave with how wide they are. But don’t listen to that guy. Just summon it out in the “Request Creature” tab and wait for it to teleport (I have summoned creatures out of the cave when they get stuck and they teleport just fine). Share this with anyone you know who struggles with that.” not everyone plays on mobile bruh
I tammer Mr.crocy when he's fighting group of flies. I just tranqed him around 4 shots. fazzak.. He fainted.. It took me 2 sleep cycles to tame him completely..he's an osm swimmer 🏊 and his jumps were damn cool man 😎
Once on Ragnorok I had full tek armor and went to the swamp to catch a sarco and got instantly killed by one.
I was near the sea with my level 7 dilo then a sarco level 4 just came out of nowhere from the water and killed me I still don't know what happened to my dilo because it was not in attack mode (the lesson is if you find a body of water just incase keep some distance from it)
My teammate was knocked out in the middle of a snake and sarco infested cave and all of a sudden three phomias come out of now were at me and behind them is the biggest sarco I’ve ever seen I’m had a normal bow and actually won! And then the an titanaboa army came out of now were we fought to the last man and giant frog rip
Should I tame a sarco or a stegosaurus first????
These dudes are super fast in water! They can see you from a mile! Be super careful with killing one of these. Normally I would use arrows and a primitive bow to kill it. Also make sure you keep your distance! These guys can pounce on you from a far and bite you with their powerful jaws. This information was brought to you from a beginner.
They are pretty easy to tame if you stay not too far away and just keep shooting them with Tranqs.
THE BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO TAMING SARCO:
1. Get a slingshot and a bunch of stones, and if possible, a bow and tranq arrows
2. Go on the jungle in west zone 1, and try to find sarco (look under cliffs)
3. Shoot it with your bow or slingshot. It cant climb if youre on the cliff
4. Once its unconcious, check if other sarcos are there. If not, walk up to the body and feed it the fish meat. If there are sarcos, shoot them too and feed them the meat.
5. Set timer in this app.
6. Go back to ark, and just wait. You can harvest ferns, chop trees, do whatever. But never lose the location of sarco.
7. Now you have an absolute powerhouse on your side!
I entered a dangerous area and looked around, ready to run. As I turn around to go back the way I came, I see a cloud of dust coming towards me. A Sarco, barely a few feet away comes charging at me and my parasaur. I turn and run until I’m safe. Then I realize my parasaur isn’t with me. I panic and run back, where I find the Sarco destroying my parasaur, who was in passive without me knowing. So I killed him with my axe and saved my favorite parasaur.
I killed one in the water it’s natural environment with my fist because it just swims in a circle it’s not hard to tame better with tranq arrows though
I tamed mine with an journey crossbow with 3 or 4 tranq arrows. Easy KO
Favorite tame for early to mid game. Ridiculously fast in water and not too bad on land. Lvl up only health and melee damage, turn radius beats megaladons and I've killed many alpha megas this way. Very beefy and can tank hits at 3k health with mounted combat, letting you tranq anything that doesn't knock you off your mount or attack the rider directly (like the Rex or spino).
They are slow. You can shoot it with tranks and it will only take around 10-20 depending on the level. Also they take trike kibble. It took me an hour and a half to tame a lvl. 12 with raw meat so use trike kibble to save you some time
