Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Sarco in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

I've been trying to get a sarco but every single time I get one something attacks while it's unconscious and each time I decide to whistle for aggressive mode on my baryonyx with really high modifiers on the server he instakills my sarco while he attacks the other…

If you are a noob like me and aren’t ready to take on one of these, then let other creatures kill it for you. They are very slow on land and are normally found in the same environment as the carbonemyes (however you spell it). Just get it to follow you and go behind a…

Lead it up to land far from water the shoot it with slingshot or crossbow if you do lead to land when it’s health is low or tor it go’s in water and you’ll never see it again

There is one of these near my base but not near a swamp... I want to try and tame it but it managed to kill a wild Trike so I’m not sure... can someone help me plz? I’m only level seventeen but managed to take a Pachyderm, Parasaur, two Dilos and a level 80 Trike.. Advine…

You can tame them pretty early on in the game and it’s a great asset to have. Make sure you bring a fast moving dino and a bunches of narcos, meat and rocks. I’d recommend bringing at least 45 to be safe. Make sure to stay ahead of it, the bite is deadly. Also, keep it away…

If you focus on hitting it’s tail/ legs you take less damage and its easier to kill if you have no weapons or bad ones, i was able to kill one with my hands doing that.

Lower levels are rather squishy for what they are, and the terrible turn & attack rate doesn’t help either. My first Sarco was two-shot by a wild one (which was then two-shot by my Baryonyx). Otherwise, it’s a decent mount.

Excellent source of prime meat. If you run out of dodo kibble, rush out and kill one of these bad boys for a Pteradon.
