To the person asking about the sarco saddle it’s unlocked at level 35 and you need 230 hide 75 fiber and 20 cementing paste. If u don’t have access to cementing paste you can craft it with stone and chitin or keratin at mortar and pestle. Hope this helped 😁

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

Just bring a lot of narco berries and a lot of raw meat and fight it with a wooden club while running around it. Now I have Sam on mobile.

It's an easy tranq tame just keep your distance and stay away from water, they're slow on land

Easy to tame as long as they are on land.

(This is for mobile since it’s what I play on)

TAMING:

Great thing about Sarcos is their wide turning range, so easiest and cheapest way to tame one is running and shooting back with tranq arrows. On mobile, highly suggest getting an asc bow and arrow from the dilo hunt pursuit. WARNING: Sarcos are kinda fast, so prob best to jump and run while doing it. Once knocked out, best to do it at night so you can grab a sleeping bag to sleep and get its food drained, then use a soothing balm to get it quickly! How I easily got a 150 sarco

UTILITY:

It’s definitely great for traveling in water, and with its rather high weight you can steal beaver dams with ease and swim away quickly, or kill them since they have rather good melee and health. It’s great for its piranha scaring ability and turn on the spot attacking, but can get annoying when a creature is too close and you can’t hit it

Hope you enjoyed reading! <3

Try to lead the creature out of the swamp before attempting to knock out and tame the sacro

Lure big creatures that you want to kill into the water. Works on even alpha ones. Once they're in the water, just go behind them near their hind legs and start chomping.

Boom, easy meat and trophy farm. Works on mammoth and such creatures also, so you can farm pelt and all.

This could actually be your first tame, just make sure it's alone then punch it from the back and it will try to turn around, just keep moving and try to be behind it and keep punching, it can't hit you, i was just messing around in a new server and i saw one of those i was going to leave anyways so i went to it from the back and kept punching it and it couldn't even turn and hit me and make sure you keep it away from water

These things are BEASTS. I tamed a lvl 145, which is now 235 and has 7000 health and 500% melee damage. Take these things to the ocean they can outswim pretty much anything down there. Watch out for jellyfish and enraged mantas. Those mfs are fast.

Sarcos have trouble hitting small creatures (dodos lystros etc) so you can use a small creature to distract it while you (knock it out, kill it etc)

Due to their high health and decent damage, if you're like me and need bio toxins for arrows/tranq darts to Ko most creatures, these hold well for taming a basilo. You can either A. Kill them off by picking one out and beating it to death OR B. Kite them away REAL far near some megs or another basilo. -Mantyll

These big bois are very underrated. Decent damage, no oxygen stat, fast underwater, and multiple different attacks

When i was level 35, i tamed a sarco, which was surprisingly pretty easy, i just used my crossbow with tranq arrows. A few levels later I got a saddle for my sarco, on land, it is pretty slow, but can also deal a lot of dmg, in water its very strong and extremely fast and can be used for easiely killing megalodons, which gives you a lot of fish meat and fish prime meat, also its at normal speed in the water way faster than a megalodon, I killed a leedsychtis too. The only thing you have to keep distance is the jellyfish and the sparkling eel. It's also a really good option for getting in water caves, because it can walk. Also it needs no oxygen. I am level 85 now and it is still my favourite swimmer.

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.

I tamed one because people said they are fast and easy to tame. When I put a saddle on it I went to the water and went holy crap that’s fast! And every day I rode him back and forth from Herbivore island Until the freakin jelly fish came and he defended me so I could swim back to shore.

When riding on a boat keep an eye out for these guys because unlike most other water dwelling predators, sarcos can still see you and attack you on the raft. If it gets to you it will be hard to shake off the raft, it'll make the raft move buggily, and if you don't act quick it will ruin anything you're carrying on the boat, and can of course kill you, most likely leaving you're raft stranded. If you have a partner have them stab it to death, they are weaker than they look. If you're alone, try to get as close to shore as you can and fight it off there.

These are super strong beginner tames all you need to tame one is a bow and tranq arrows because of their high damage. If you see one I’d recommend just running if you’re a begginer(two of these killed and destroyed everything I had when I started in single player) if you’re taming one lure it away from other creatures and water fisrt then just walk backwards and shoot and if it come close just run and reset.

Help one of these spawned on the beach and now I'm stuck hiding on the bluff!! He looks stuck!! I don’t know if I should ignore try to tame or just try to kill. Very scary.

Easy mid or early game tame. All u have to do is lead it away from the swamp hit it with a few tranqs, keep it asleep and shove meat down it’s throat. Also not dying to kapros
