What are tips for sarco? Tips and strategies for sarco in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Give a sarco raw prime meat instead of raw meat that way it will eat the meat
Ok ok we've all been there one time i was taming 2 pteranadons and out of nowhere a sarco showed up and straight up swallowed the 2 sleeping pteranadons
To kill one with melee weapons, simply lure it towards another creature, make it attack the creature then you just hit its tail and run when it starts targetting you. If you tame one, here's some combat tips: spam the lunge attack. Don't just do normal bites as they are slow and dosent deal much damage. You can also do a quick turn by looking at the direction you wanna turn towards and perform a normal bite. They can take on rexes and spinos with ease. Even bronto.
When attcking, you should spam the abilities of this creature, mainly the lunge and if you lunged too far ahead of your target, just look back and do a normal attack to quickly turn around then you can spam lunge once again. You still can get dismounted by raptors and kapros due to sarcos not being tall enough so be sure to spam lunge to dodge their dismounting attacks or just avoid the creatures.
Honestly quite an easy game if you have a crossbow and tranqs. Maybe even with a bow.
Once I found an explorer note and I saw a sarco and a titanoboa guarding it so i gave up on the note, now I realize how weak this things are and I regret giving up the note
It's very simple to tame sarco I have tamed level 40 sarco only in 7 or 8 traqn arrows take only one 1× shooting balm it will tame in 3 minutes or 2
For killing it just have some dilos
If you tame one in the swamp you can kill some Titanoboas for raw prime. Just be careful of torpor, and bring some stimulant.
Will I’ve killed 3 and got killed by them 5 timesavers lol
To tame or knock out just hit it and stay beside it in the middle in it we’ll keep on going in a circle until it die or get knocked out then use nacorte and just meat then done to killl do the the same thing but with out a blunt weapon use a weapon like a sword or attack from range on land or on a hill another way to tame is to use a tranq bow with arrows warning never attack on in water if you do you are dead get to land as soon as possible because not olny that is attacking fish and leech’s so don’t attack in water
Use a tranquilizer darts helps if you have more, helps you against tuff Dino’s learn there attack patterns. When your higher lvl you can ride on sarco with saddle. Good pet to have but have other pets to support it may come in handy on higher Dino’s.
There is a glitch where when you are on a raft with a sarco and you box it in and you get on and off with either a monkey or compy on your shoulder and you glitch inside the sarco and you open up your map it will show the entire map for you whether you’ve explored there or not.
I love dinos for four years, I loved the crap out of of the Spino. And then... I found this beautiful creature. I don’t know if I’ve just been lucky of what, but I have tamed up a bunch of speed demons. I have a herd of them. I’m growing the herd. Nothing goes near my base because it’s immediately caught in the circle of death. I watched a level 20 bronco get shredded by these guys in about 4 seconds. If you seem to lack a good meat-eater, a couple of these guys do the trick. Seriously amazing.
Carry stimulants with you when riding The Sarc they get KO’ed it easy when being attacked
Keep this thing away from bugs. I had a 290 and it got killed by bugs
It may look menacing and deadly but it's just the looks it's attack radius is directly in front of it and a slow turning radius means even using a stone hatchet you can kill it
I knocked out this thing with a sling shot easy tame for early players.
