They are very good tame for beginners since they are slow on land and fast in water, and you can easily knock them out because of that, but be careful to not get bitten

Ride this dino when you are shooting at a new tame. Their snout is so far from you. Trikes and other dino’s will not attack much or not at all.

Controls on switch!

L2: death-roll

If you want to tame a sarco you are gonna need so tranq arrows (20+ tranq arrows reccomended if its under level 10)

it eats a lot of meat. bring at least a few stacks for adventures

Remember to defeat things guys attack and stay at the back legs where they can’t do any damage at all

I defeated 2 with a the 50 damage weapon not killing me one time it is easy get it stuck or get it attack another thing and hit it

How to tame a sarco with ease!

Sarcos are very slow on land, so you want to make sure that you it far from water.

You need to use tranq arrows (or any tranq projectile) and a bow (or crossbow, it doesn’t matter to much).

For levels 5-10 I recommend around 5-10 arrows, 11-20, 15-20 arrows. Basically whatever level it is have the same amount of tranq arrows.

Because of their slowness you can very easily sleep one by just running from it and turning to shoot it a few times, I recommend around 120% speed. Make sure you don’t have a ton of items in your bag that will slow you down.

If you’re in a dangerous place you can simply give it the food you have to tame and hide away since nothing will attack it. :)

These guys are awesome! I have yet to make a saddle even though it was a while ago I unlocked the saddle. For taking, I used a cross bow and tranq arrows. Got it to chase me while I was in my Argy and perched on a rock, shot it quite a few times then fed it raw meat. You can easily tame it on land. Just lure it away from the swamp (look out for all dangerous creatures including the leaping croc, kaprosuchus) and it walks slowly on land. Shoot it and down it!

Bruh I tamed one with my fists because it turns slow and I went behind it and punched it. Great tame for early-mid but when your level 22 and realize it's a long time before you saddle it. BAGUETTE 🥖🥖🥖🥖🥖🥖

How do you breed sarcos on phone?

Though I would not recommend traversing inland with these unless along a river for a quick getaway, Sarcos are really reliable mounts when travelling across the sea and rivers. Relatively slower on land, when you put these bad boys in water, they are giant toothed torpedoes. Their base stats are not bad and can be improved by adding a couple points first to health, melee and stamina. When you want to explore the island, add a few more points to movement speed and you'll have a mount that can kill and swim efficiently. Like in the dossier, these crocs are shark hunters, so don't be scared when encountering a Meg, you can easily diminish them but as long as you are constantly circling around them so they won't bite you. But I wouldn't fight anything other than that because the ocean is a dangerous place . And beware of jellyfish. Hate those buggers.I learned the hard way and lost my level 67 Sarco "Swampy". Overall my favourite Dinosaur in Ark Survival!

Very great Dino my level 203 sarco not breed killed a lvl 45 alpha Meg it is possible because of stamina and speed and this Dino is very under-rated

Expanding upon my last tip, my Sarco has reached level 143 or so and she's completely unstoppable. Pump health and melee, bit of stam for good measure, and as long as you keep the river in running distance your high level sarcosuchus can take on any rex and at least mid alpha carnos. And they're easy so easy to tame, they are a must have tame.

if you got high level you can slay everything in your path even in water Exept giga

be careful when near any kind of water bodies because if you're careless enough a sarco might just pop up from water and kill you or your pet ora an animal nearby

also if you encounter a sarco coming at you don't run away it will waste your energy because a sarco can see you from a long distance but what you should do is grab an axe or a pikaxe face the sarco and hit it when it gets closer also if you have a small gap between trees go inside there and the sarco will be stuck you can kill it or run away

I am on mobile i was doing the ichthy pursuit but had no idea what the ichthy looked like thought maybe its that croc thing swam to it it turned arouned and chased me to shore where i speared it to half health died then came back to see a trike beating its ass got my first tranq arrow and some other nice loot thanks to that trike

I have started several solo / non-dedicated games over quarantine (pc failed few times) and every time i tame one of these guys... They make travel quick (using the rivers and oceans) and can tank soooo much damage..best early game tame ever

Long live "After 8" (my green and black sarco)

It's a really good tame especially in water. Use one of these around like 40-50 to kill alpha megladons easy. Just circle around and hit their tail or body and it can't hit you back. Just watch for you're oxygen (sarco has infinite oxygen).

Well I managed to tame it with both fish and regular meat by just running around in circles while hitting it until it passed out as it would do the same trying to bite me. I was in the region: The Southern Islets, particularly the part of them with the island where it’s all sand and cliffs, they tend to roam there. They can also roam in the swamp but it’s much harder to tame them so go to The Southern Islets if your going to tame these (look in your status menu in inventory to know which region your in)
