DO NOT tame this in the lower south cave. It will get stuck on the way out and be in there forever. Please hit the up arrows to help spread the word to newer players like myself

Good because they can go on land but are still good divers while also being able to depend themselves so if someone blocks off the river with gates you can go around on land

I see all these comments on how to tame it lol. Easy. Shoot it in the face while walking backwards job done. None of this tame pen rubbish or hugging its legs. If you get one in the swamp your gonna want to lure it out of the swamp though

One of the better mounts for collecting leech blood as leeches will ignore the sarco.

These can be picked up by a quetz so pick one bring it to base and drop it in a taming pen

It's better to tame one you find at a beach/river than one in the swamp. The swamp has a lot of dangers that can make taming in there a nightmare (namely titanboa and other sarco, but leeches are not fun either)

You can find them near pretty much any body of water. Sometimes they are hard to see if they are in the water. They will follow you out of the water, since they are much slower on land try to lead them away from the water.

Make a croc pit and put your enemies into it.

Sarcos are very slow on land so use a crossbow or better to tranq them so tame on land in and around the swamps or in rivers and ponds. DONT ESCAPE INTO THE WATER THEY HAVE A STRONG BITE AND ARE VERY FAST UNDERWATER!

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

You can use a crossbow from its back even when submerged, so it's a great mount to safely tranq other aquatic creatures.

Once you find a sarco DO NOT and I mean it get in the water. You will want to get a good sized rock and just shoot down on it Once you do this get your narcotics and meat ready and feed it.

Faster than megalodon in ocean. Don't require stamina in water. Can kill megalodon if it have higher Meele DMG. Faster on land. Attack is average.

Do not try to tame these while in the water, they have enhanced speed and will easily kill you. Draw one to land and walk backwards whilst shooting tranq arrows at its head.

These puppies are a semi-noob's best friend. Find them in swamps and near water holes. They really open up the map to you when you're a noob as they allow you to traverse waterways quite easily and quickly. All you need are some tranquil arrows and a decent distance and some raw meat. I've personally tamed 3 of them. They are also very useful for traveling up coasts and collecting lots of meat from dodos and scouting out those rounded rocks that give good metal. 10/10 my favorite dino.

To tame this guy you won't need very many tranq arrows compared to other creatures, you might even be able to slingshot one. You can either stand on a rock and shoot it, or stand back and shoot it. Either way, the sarco is quite slow on land, and it would be lucky to hit you. You won't need to make a trap but if you really want to you could probably make one out of pillars or doorframes. Once you have knocked it out, you won't need many narcotics once again compared to other creatures and any meat will do really but kibble, mutton, or prime meat are probably the best option. If you are new to taming, I would recommend feeding it about one narcotic every time it reaches the last letter in the word 'unconscious'on the purple bar at the top when you are taming it. When the taming bar at the bottom is full, you have tamed your own sarco!They are the fastest on land, so if you are having trouble knocking one out and you are being attacked, don't run into the water! Hope this helped!

Use a bow/crossbow with tranks and stay on land if you go in water say goodbye to your stuff 4 ever

Timer way off on aberration. Haven't tamed on other maps. Plan on extra food and time.

Dododex taming is off for this one. Said i needed 8 prime meat, but in the end i needed like 15. Upvote so this gets fixed

The walk it to land method don't work anymore since they can now jump at you, get it stuck in gates and shoot from above

Shoot from far away then back onto dry land where u can then shoot with tranqs. I needed about fifteen tranqs but it was only lvl. 2
