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

This thing is criminally underrated. It instantly regenerates its stamina underwater, is extremely fast, and can swim through underwater caves without fighting anything.

Essential for the ocean survival! The Sarco's speed and maneuverability under water makes it awesome for out running and staying out of attack radius of creatures. Not to mention it regains stamina instantly after not moving for just a second. And to top it off you can use…

DEAR MOBILE PLAYER

Here's my personal experience

Sarco is strong creature with decent agility

Normal attack - Sarco will bite, deal damage twice to enemy. You can immediately turn your Sarco around by look back and do this attack

Swipe Up Attack - Sarco will lauch…

GET A SARCO!

These are NOT early-game tames only,they are great for underwater exploration and you will NOT regret taming one!

I think I found a glitch for these wonderful beasts and I didn't see it up here so ima put it up here for yall, when your swimming with your sarco, if it runs out of energy just keep swimming, it will refill the stamina to keep going, test this out for yourself if ya…

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…

DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT ram into large objects such as houses or oversized rocks at full speed, I’ve lost sarcos because of me accidentally glitching them into houses and rocks while just trying to park, now this doesn’t happen all the time it’s just.. happened and I…

The sarco is very easy to escape, considering it's slow movement speed on land, but don't get to comfortable. And don't go into water with one around, they are VERY fast In water. I would recommend taming a high level one, they are , like I said fast in water…

Easiest way to tame one before level 20

1 Get a slingshot and over 25 stones

2 Find a Sarco on the beach and get it to chase you

3 Walk backwards and shoot it with the sling shot

4 Name it Socks

The sarcho is a really good early game Dino I know cuz I’m early game but it needs a lot of space to thrive in and just like really crocs and gators they’re fast so go on a rock and tranq it out with arrows or darts hoped this helped

How to escape a Sarco:

1. If you see one, run. If you want to tame it, don’t ask me.

2. If it sees you, DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT run into water, or die.

3. Go into a forest or far away from water and if it’s still following then run to a trike, carboneys (turtle dino…

They're really powerfull, I used to kill alpha rexes with them, I lured the alphas to the ocean (or any deep water) and start circulating and bitting them. Make sure to have a high level sarco while doing this.

To whoever is nervous about their sarco problem that posted on the sixth, raptors can kill these! As long as you have an about lvl 20ish raptor and the sarco is lower level, you’re all good!

PS if you name your raptor Aster Jr after my deceased sarco killer, I would be…

Sarcos are one of the best mounts for starting the oceanic side of the game, if not the best.

Not only are they just solid all-around at combat and travel, but they really excel as an underwater taming mount. Theyre fast enough to kite or chase anything, powerful enough to…

All you need to kill it is a primitive bow and lots of arrows if he gets close turn and run for a little bit and then start shooting him again . Make sure he isn’t close to water, cuz they are fast as fudge in water
