How do I kill a sarco? sarco battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
When they target a trike often trikes win so what you can do is get any RANGED weapon melee not advised and shoot it at low hi it’s great for some loot and easy to do up it so beginners know about this
Scares can swim vary fast stay out of water if you see scares
They can be a threat in early game. But if you succesfully tame one of the in early game you could go to the herbivore island and tame herbivores without your raft is being eaten by a whale.
Plz dont confuse them for khap... i forgot its name but it starts with a k thes jump not sarcos
Next time you see one of these in the 1st day or ARK- RUN LIKE A HEADLESS CHOOK
For some reason i had a few come after me once i shot them with an arrow while standing on top of a tall rock, then all of a sudden they flew at me! Like literally flew like the arrow i gave him! Flew past my head after hitting me with his tail, then he continued to fly past me! I was like this dude just did a hit and run! Then he reversed back to me as well as his buddy and they both Peter Panned their asses right on the spot i was standing! Bam dead! Glitched creatures for sure! Somebody nuke these guys!!!
They weak. I found SARCO Skin in my Dodo. I didn’t kill it
I loved on a very small island in the middle of the sothern isles and I discovered there was a sarco.2 actually.i delt with it while it was fighting a bronto.by shooting it with a longneck rifle.it was real easy as it didn’t attack me.if you are lower level a bow should work too
I’ve tamed a sarcosuchus they are fast in water but if you can make it sprint it will be the fastest thing I know that can swim.
I was walking and i got killed by one of these,so i respawned,and my cousin and i went to attempt to tame it.We did.
A sarco attacked me and killed me but I had a dilo at the time lv28 which killed the lv35 sarcowhile I was dead. 12 lvls
I always stand on a rock and shoot it with a bow but otherwise hit it in the back legs its turns are super slow
All you have to know is their butt heads. Whatever your doing no matter what they'll come out of the bushes/water and kill you. Best to not mess with.
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 dino and I keep forgetting so I keep doing it.
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 carbonemyues and then as the two fight if you help the turtle you cane get the goodies and prime meat it drops.
Dont let the big boy get a big munch outta you, he thinks you taste good so rub yourself in poop first.
Warning, they can now run very fast.
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.
When I tamed my sarco it was stuck in trees and when it tamed it took so long to get it out of the trees
If you meet it keep attacking it from the back if you have bad armour or low health, They turn around really slow.
