Because of bad turn radius if it has enough health, go to the tail and just keep punching, then you really knock it out easily. It was my first tame 🤣😂🤣😂

Single player uses:

1. Early game power dino: Sarcos are fairly strong and very easy to tame.

2. Taming mount: Sarcos are aster than they look, can turn on a dime and you can use a weapon while riding them.

3. Aquatic mount: They're even faster and more agile…

These dino is super fast and strong, if you want to kill something very strong, It might kill It, and if youre near wáter and youre getting killed, you can just run away and nothing Will be able to catch you.

I Hope this was useful, sorry for my english🙏

I recommend taming one, they are super fast in the water, and they do a LOT of damage. I have tamed carnos and therizos but my one Sarco is the strongest one, I easily killed a megalodon and mine is only level 25, I only leveled up the stamina, speed and melee strength.…

For the person who is confused in what level to get the sarco saddle, you have to be level 35 to be able to learn and craft it, it takes 230 hide, 75 fiber, and 20 cementing paste.

Hope this helps!

Get a taller trap as they can jump at you now since the rework and will jump over a wall or railing to get you. These are AMAZING water tames. Tame these, breed them till you have crazy mutations and then bring them into the ocean and destroy everything around. Megalodon teeth…

This is probably the best traveling creature in the game… at least on any map with intricate river and ocean systems. It is almost as fast as the itchy but it is easier to tame, it can go on land, and has ok attack (definitely better than the itchy). Isn’t that good for…

With the new mounted combat feature this guy really shines. Build hp and with a decent saddle and a pkle or sword, a player can kill most land and sea dinos no problem.

If you find it near your base just tame it you won't regret it. I tamed 1 I first thought it wasn't that fast then I took it in the water then I realized my mistake . Holy crap that's fast

It's better to tame one you find at a beach/river than one in the swamp. The swamp has a lot of dangers that can make taming in there a nightmare (namely titanboa and other sarco, but leeches are not fun either)

You can find them near pretty much any body of water.…

ITS SO EASY TO TAME!!! You don’t even need a weapon I tamed a level 20 by getting by its back legs, hitting it with bare hands and when it spins run back to the legs. Then shove fish down its throat and bam, a sarco. Mine is level 93 now and I ride it in the ocean and kill…

I watched a lvl 60 murder a lvl 30 Alpha Rex with only a tiny bit of blood. They dominate almost any creature stay away unless you are purposely killing or taming them.
