Heres a few of tips and tricks from Auntie Maroon ;D

They have 2 1/2 Attacks: Regular snap attack (single tap), A death roll (Swipe up) and the 1/2 was if u use the death roll at the shore into the water u launch urself into the water B}

They gather meat fast as a torpedo but they also eat fast like a torpedo (tip: Transfer the meat to ur own inventory before ur gator munches all of it lol @^@)

They are turborocket fast in the water. If u tame a high lvl u shall lvl up health and stamina. (NOT movement speed)

The dmg of a lvl 100 is 100 to 120

Btw its really confusing: i have no idea if its a crocodile or an alligator-

Anywayz i hope these tips helped ya a bit {Good luck Taming one ;D}

I tried and battled a sarco that lived near my thatch base once (I was a noob) and the thing killed me 5 times before making it unconscious though I didn’t think of taming it so for revenge I killed it it is also very slow so you can outrun it easily

Hi

I was the same guy who encountered the level 260 male sarco at level 7 and said I'll tame it and guess what, I TAMED IT! basically i shot 2 tranq arrows at it on ascendant normal bow and then hit him with 10 clubs then used the soothing balm i got from Hunt: megapiranha pursuit and put fish meat and it took 9 fish meats. The dangerous part was i knocked it down near an lvl 100 alpha carno but thankfully both me and my sarco survived.

When you see one on land TAME it. Useful when crossing waters fast swimmers. Just beware of jellies on your way. If seen on water, get the f- out of the water.

Tamed one of these with my friend and named him tank and when me and my buddy went into the swamp to tame a bary we ended finding tank and a kaprosuchus later named kate and tank and kate were awesome tank took down a bronto by himself with a little help from a pteranadon.

After awhile these guys will no longer be a threat, but a pest. Grab some bows, guns, or pikes and walk on land :)

It is not a sarco it is a monster

They spawn in rivers, lakes, the swamp biome (the cancerous place with the doberman-crocodiles and titanoboas), and sometimes beaches. They are most common in aberration and do not spawn in scorched earth.

Battling, use some high level games if possible and they should kill it if you want the skin, hide, or meat. Escaping, if you are new to ark pump movement speed to run away from predators, if not get on your tame and skedaddle.

They spawn in the water sometimes don't make your house near the water or I learned the hard way I had a moshchops and 2 high level dodo's 1 was level 40 and 1 was level 50 and a sarco killed them all !!!!!!!!!!!!sh$&

If you have no choice but to kill this thing, go on land and attack from there. Make sure to stay behind the sarco, where its head will not be able to attack you. They are very bad at turning and will have a hard time fighting.

OK these things are nightmares I have gotten killed by 1 five times but you wanna know what freaked me out that thing Got wrecked by some beavers So if you see one try and find some Beavers as fast as you can

This creature is absurd. He was the reason my only raptor died. So, I was riding on my raft, and I see a sarco chasing some dodos. I think, ‘oh, he won’t see me.’ He gets on my raft and attacks me. My three dilos and one raptor chase him off the boat, and kill him. But a Cnidaria literally comes out of nowhere and I jump in the water to save them. Too late. It says, ‘Your Raptorsaurus (level I have no idea, probably, like, 19, was killed by Cnidaria. I was in way too much distress, loosing my raptor. It was devastating. I cried. So, don’t go near them with pets or else…choose to take my advice or, like me, learn the hard way.

Remember, you don’t always have to find them in the swamps.

Just don't go hunting in the swamp alone (Hopefully this is common sense). If you bring a decent raptor it'll destroy the sarco and even a carbonemys can do it on land. It isn't that hard to engage unless you're in the water. If you do fight it, just be aware of you're surroundings. I got attacked by two titanoboas once while fighting it. Didn't end well. However, my raptor killed all three of them by the time I got back. That's why I say raptors are great for mid level players going on a hunting trip.

I don’t know whats all the bad reviews about this sarco they are so easy tame (If your on on a high level) and so easy to kill just get on a high rock or back up while shooting arrows or Slingshots at it

The southern islands is where sarcos spawn most

How to kill one as a noob.

Omg it’s the easiest predator you can kill. You can either lure it to some wild creatures or tame a small creature (dodo, lystrosaurus, otter etc.) and yes, just one. Order your little friend to attack it. The sarco will turn to it and won’t be able to hit your little friend at all since they will hide under and attack it from there. Just help it by stabbing it on the tail until it dies. If it manages to attack your little friend however, I recommend getting a high-end leveled one to be able to tank its hits. This method I found really useful to farm exp as a noob.

If you get on its side right up in front of it's back leg and go in circles with it stabbing it in the stomach you can easily kill these fellas with even just primitive gear with minimal damage.

We can thank my Ark buddy for that tip.
