So when I got my first one I was alone and it went fine. If you walk backwards and shoot at it(that's what it did) make sure you are far enough away from it you don't die, it runs away from you when it's starting to get sleepy. I recommend about 4 stacks of raw meat for it. For arrows I brought 60 and used most of them but yet again each animal has a different amount of arrows they need to be knocked out. I used about 20 on my second sargo.

They do a lot of damage so I recommend you run away or, to tame/kill them, run AROUND them. Their turning is terrible.

Here is just a tip, When U Tame These Guys U Can Put them on aggressive and get fish from them just in case some didn’t know. ^-^

I knocked one out with a club when I was level 10

Just keep going in circles with the sarco and keep hitting the back legs there bad at turning and not so fast on land when wild

When tamping these creatures remember to NOT go near water or go in water because they will attempt to swim towards you and easily defeat you. You would need a ton of narc arrows and stay on a high place. If you are getting attacked by another thing they will eventually attack each other lowering each other’s health. Best to make a camp near a cliff where they can’t get you (You might have a chance of getting 2 dinos at once if they are fighting each other).

Idk what’s going on but I’m feeding this sarco narcs and torpor won’t go up

If you wana kill it this is what u can do.

1. Grab arrows and a bow and shoot it

That’s all

:p

There is a deadly combo if you use a hole army of sarcos and ride on a baryons you could just stun the enemy and let the sarcos finish the job.

Ok so what do you do when a sarco chases me? Answer: keep to their tail. They can’t bite you if they can’t reach you. Get your strongest weapon and hit it in the tail and belly. When it turns, turn with it. Don’t try to hop on it’s back. Unless your a god or hacker at this game you have 98% of dying trying to do it. Sarcos are fast even on land and they won’t get board of trying to eat you so don’t even think about running. Btw they drop ALOT of good loot. 🐊🦖

Great for traveling and great body guard

Wow they say it’s a beginner tame

this thing King kill a T-Rex with ease

There’s a small island thing just to the east of the spawn location South Zone 2. I call that island Sarco Isle. Why do I call it Sarco Isle? Well, within the first 15 days of living there, I had 4 encounters with Sarcos. If you are a noob, stay away from Sarco Isle!

Sarcos are big and slow as long as on land a trap is not necessary to tame one but if you want to build a trap I recommend three stone foundations all placed vertically stone walls placed around the all sides except the very front where you will place a doorframe(don't worry they cannot fit through one) lastly two stairs, you will want to place one on the top of the back most wall then place a second stair on the on the other stair not on the sides on the bottom. If it makes you feel better you can add a third stair but on is not necessary and you may need a fourth foundation. Tranq that baby out feed it some meat 🍖 wait then you got yourself a Sarco🐊. You will need three foundations, 8 walls, one doorframe and two stairs.

If one crawls right up on you, just reach around start stabbing its head with a pike. Works very well for low level players and prevents them from doing much damage to your base.

Today I am very happy I saved a parasaur from a Sarco and i tamed that para and guess what!? It was a tek para

I find sarcos rlly useful if you have a raft base and u want a under water tame, cuz you can just place them on it while other under water tames you always have to put them follow u when you move the raft and sometimes i forget or it dies bc something is attacking it. (I play on pvx srvr with changing zone thats why i don t have a land base)

Sarcos will randomly die when you exit the water when swimming with them. I have no idea if this is anti-mesh or fall damage but there is a chance it will instantly die or take massive amounts of damage when leaving the water. This glitch has been around for 3 years now and still hasn’t been patched. :/

Like a lot of people have said before, Sarco’s are one of the easier tames that even lower levels can obtain. I am only a lvl 24 so far and the Sarco I just tamed not even 15 mins ago is a lvl 14+ taming lvl buff. I suggest that you use fish raw/prime to tame because she took 20:00+ mins to tame and it was excruciatingly boring to do nothing (no narcotics or more than 40 fish meat needed).

I learned the spinning technique all my myself when I'm trying to knock/kill a sarco u just go to its thighs and hit it while it's spinning around at u till u knock/kill it.

These guys are so easy to knock out and need not a lot of meat and narcotics so if you see one you can take it out with a slingshot pretty easily and insanely easy with tranq arrows. They are a great mount for people who would rather focus on building early game and get mounts later on since once you can learn the saddle I prefer it over a raptor for a scout/hunter since you can go underwater and farm chiton easily and not be afraid of water dinos.
