More Sarco Utility Tips
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 death… My Sarco…
Rain pours down to the land. He left his beloved wife and son.
One like = One Sarco lives.
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 underwater, just beware there is a glitch where they instantly die if they go on land, though it's very rare so unlikely to happen.
Four reasons they are useful
1: Fast in water
2: Can do barrel roll
3: Can breed than kill for skin for one of the bosses
4: Good attack
Two ways they aren’t useful
1: slow on land
2: Attacks are SOOO SSLLOOOWW…
Hope this helps pros and nerbs (funny way of saying noob) alike

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.
