Encountering Tips

How do I kill a sarco? sarco encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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.
My dodo is dead so now I hunt saris down and kill them when ever there is one nearby. R.I.P. feathers.🪶
How do i tame it and what level
In early game, you might think this thing is extremely scary. But do not fear it, me and a friend once played ark together, we tamed a carbonemey or whatever they're called and a dodo. It tried to attack us but surprisingly they killed the carno. So you don't have anything to fear as long as you have a few dinos by your side
I was driving my raft with my stego para phiomia and my raptor and we went hunting for sacrosanct and to go raid beaver dams and we found a sarco killed it and raided like 2 beaver dams and the beavers came for us and they did a lot of damage but we still managed to kill them both and I got a lot of pearls and stuff
If your on the island and there are dilos near you and you want the sarco gone tame an army of diols and then will kill its but make sure the dilo is attacking behind the sarco
These guys are my absolute favorite to tame early game and if you get a high level one it’s op but the lower level ones are pretty weak tho I recommend trank arrows and a raptor so you can shoot it and run until it’s out like a light
I spawned on island spawn point one and A FRIKING SARCO CAME OUT OF NOWHERE O F&%K O F&%K GO AWAY YOU BI&$H
They will not attack you if they’re attacking a animal with 1000hp
Me on crystal isles:
“You tamed a carbenomys!”
“Yay!”
*5 minutes later*
“Your Mary Shelly (carbenomys) was killed by a sarco!”
“AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😡😤😖😠👿😾🗯🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡😡🤬😡😤🤬😠😠🤬😖😡🤬😡🤬😡😖😡😠😡😖😤😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬”
I guess I just can’t have nice things nowadays.
Don't be scared of sarcos, you can kill them easily early game with a bow or with spears, they're really slow, deal low damage and dont have many health
Until you have the right knockout tools get the frick away from there! Try to get a wyvern quickly if your on crystal, if not just upgrade your speed a lot. P.s let the world know u liked if u know what I mean😁
If u see one of these, number one rule: run to dry land. Then start shooting it if it’s high hp, I like to just use an anscendant pike though
To escape one be in water it’s accuracy is trash in water but only if there is no jellyfish.If there is go to a giant turtle because it will kill it.
Go in a shallow area so it cant swim but it will trie
