I had a sarco named my best friend. Even when he was unconscious I stood besides him
More Sarco Utility Tips
During my first 30 days of playing on my single player world, I was able to take 4 of these absolute beasts. We were UNSTOPPABLE. That was until an Alpha Megladon absolutely wrecked all four of them. Can I get an F for my boys
Ok most people say these big boys are for beginners but your wrong itβs the best guy for underwear mount it restores its stamina instantly under water itβs not good on land but put that puppy in the water you will love it 10/10
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 deathβ¦ My Sarcoβ¦
Rain pours down to the land. He left his beloved wife and son.
One like = One Sarco lives.
Good mount to take into rivers and even the ocean. Good for hunting fish and I've even seen it beat a megladon. But never use it to fight a Rex because if things go south it is a very slow land mount. Short and sweet it is a hunting mount
OMG these things are overpowered early to mid game. I tamed a level 150 female super easily. You just run in front of it and since there slow on land you just tranq them. I leveled her to level 290 and she has 11k health and does 450 damage per bite. Need I say more?
Electric Eels CANNOT dismount you on these!!!! GOOD TAME, when youβre on genesis to get a start in the ocean biome! (Found in big biome) Happy taming and safe travels, also.... wash your hands :)
They have a really slow bite animation so what you should do is chain attacks with them by spamming the other skills. You need to spam leaps, turn your cam around towards the dino and basic attack before continuing the cycle. Many called it trash because it attacks slow but in reality, it has to spam different attacks in order to be viable in battles. Really fast underwater aswell.
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.
Sarcos are great for early underwater exploration: mooving at lightning speeds when submerged and needing no oxigen.
They also have a death roll ability and have instant stamina regeneration when in water.
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 clear nearby threats, and you can shoot from the back. Add it all up, and any knockout tame is a breeze on a sarco.
In combat, they punch well above their weight against the ocean's behemoths thanks to their ability to out-"dogfight" almost any opponent. It takes a bit of getting used to controlling their speed, but once you do you can win many fights while barely taking damage. Your only real fears are jellies, tusos, and getting stuck in a swarm, so just stay on the move and be aware of your surroundings and you'll be fine.
