Tips & Strategies
(Mobile) Early-Midgame tame, quickly becomes useless after you acquire a good x-bow and tranq arrows. Mediocre health, somewhat good damage but extremely low attack rate and dps, low vertical diving speed, large turning radius and weird attack range...only saving grace is that it's unmatched in rivers, and compared to other midgame tames, very easy to kite/trap and knockout. However, the sarco's got two glitches in its favor. Spyglass and invisiglitch. Thanks to its long attack animation and high damage, spyglass can increase its dps immensely. And sarcos can be found and tamed in the Clever cave, it shares the other cave creatures's invisible glitch. Combine the two and you have an untargetable killing machine. Still not as powerful as the lategame predators and quite useless on multiplayer but still impressive.
More Sarco Utility Tips
During my first 30 days of playing on my single player world, I was able to take 4 of these absolute beasts. We were UNSTOPPABLE. That was until an Alpha Megladon absolutely wrecked all four of them. Can I get an F for my boys
Ok most people say these big boys are for beginners but your wrong itβs the best guy for underwear mount it restores its stamina instantly under water itβs not good on land but put that puppy in the water you will love it 10/10
Once upon a time, my Sarco and I were hunting some Megalodons for fish meat, when a pack of Cnidaria stung the both of us, I tried to swim to the shore but it's too late. Mantas and Megs attacked me and my Sarco. My Sarco tried to fight back, biting his opponents. I swam back to the shore, and... My Sarco never came back. His dead corpse was a feast for Mantas and Megalodons. I hold my fists, my mind thirst for revenge. Rifle in hand, I swam back, shooting every Megalodon and Mantas I see. It was a bloodbath, bodies of Megalodon and Mantas floating in the ocean. I avenged his deathβ¦ My Sarcoβ¦
Rain pours down to the land. He left his beloved wife and son.
One like = One Sarco lives.
my FAVORITE WATER MOUNT!! outruns everything, regens stamina scary fast, barrel roll attack, and never gotta worry about them being beached or useless out of water!!! never had a problem taming them either 10/10 critter
I think I found a glitch for these wonderful beasts and I didn't see it up here so ima put it up here for yall, when your swimming with your sarco, if it runs out of energy just keep swimming, it will refill the stamina to keep going, test this out for yourself if ya want
Bye πππ€
Good mount to take into rivers and even the ocean. Good for hunting fish and I've even seen it beat a megladon. But never use it to fight a Rex because if things go south it is a very slow land mount. Short and sweet it is a hunting mount
They have a small window at the base of their neck where the bite hitbox doesnt reach, but they have a "hitbox" so that raptors (and alpha raptors) cant attack attack you from the front
good for early game
Tamed one of these bad boys when he wandered into my base area because I rest on the shore. Soon as I tamed him I dumped every point into melee damage and now he has 1300% into it. I've taken out like 10 leedsichthyi with him so far. I definitely recommend these for EVERYONE

Electric Eels CANNOT dismount you on these!!!! GOOD TAME, when youβre on genesis to get a start in the ocean biome! (Found in big biome) Happy taming and safe travels, also.... wash your hands :)
TLC patch coming March 2018 adding "Deathroll" grab attack on small creatures and a grab attack (possibly thrash) on larger ones, gaining a 180 degree attack and a small lunge to its attack (maybe for deathroll purpose), will no longer aggo pirahnas and in the wild will sit with mouth gaped open awaiting prey.
