What are tips for sarco? Tips and strategies for sarco in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Keep near it's back legs when fighting. They can't turn well
Get on a rock and shoot it. This worked so well for me. You don't have to use any pillars or doorframes.
If you can get something into the water, you're almost guaranteed a victory. Just make sure you act cleverly and don't take any ridiculously dangerous risks. In this way, my level-twenty-something Sarco was able to defeat an Alpha Carno, with a whole lot of kiting and a whole lot of biting.
Do not go anywhere near large ponds , this is there home and you are in danger if you are a low level
Great for oil and silica pearls along the north east section, not a great fighter but can take on megladons and such found close to the shore. You can also walk around icebergs or jellyfish on land also (get most of your oil from the surface along the coast, the sarco can walk right up for easy access and the under water oil can be guarded by mosasaurs, squids, and eels
Lake Placid style just beware if ur a very low lvl
Usually wandering around southern zones. It was the very first thing that ever attacked me. Luke litterally right as I spawned it it was there.
My favourite dino good in water and land don't go in a swamp to tame find one in a lake use tranqs and bow,crossbow or rifle or if a low level use rocks. In teams unstoppable get a team of these guys and some kapros and a spino there is your water and land team sorted and I recommend taming them
If you encounter a sarco TAME straight away these things have good swimming ability and great melee damage,it’s also quite cute once you get used to it (use narcotics and tranq arrows to tame) EATS MEAT!
Good starts! Get bow with Trank arrows and shoot away! Fast in water. Pump health and attack.
You and a tribemate get a pentradon and cross bows with tranq arrows shoot it and give it meat watch closely I lost one at 97.6 %to a weak bird in the south zones.
But with tranqs also don't tame in water caves! They will get stuck...
Press the up arrow to dread the word to new people like me
Probably the best tip I got is to stay on land since these things are most deadly in water so if you see these things in the water the you should probably stay cautious
When trying to store indoors, the tail can be a bit of a mystery on how it will sit. Sometimes it will be up and sometimes it will be into the floor. And in the water, it has two speeds. Stopped and Mach 1. This can make positioning it in a water pen difficult. A plus is they're one of the few water mounts that can let you shoot underwater while riding.
I would say this is a great tame because of its fast speed in water and the ability to move on land but it has a large problem it is not good for killin without levels put into it and it is always gettin hungry as soon as you attack so in all great animal but only for transportation in water and love gatherin pearls with this dino
