Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a sarco? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a sarco.
Beware of em near the grassland lakes on lost island, got scared once or twice by em 😬
Otherwise they’re great for caving on underwater caves and are super easy to tame, personally I just use a taller/heftier tanky mount like my baboon Ted to just ride on the back of to tranq, btw the grassland lakes on LI are by far the best area to tame them since there’s no threats besides hyenas
Bruh I JUST realized that fish literally tamed 10 faster lol. USE THE FISH
I just tamed one of these but the thing is… I’m scared of the ocean and rivers and that’s all because mega piranhas and those jellyfish things I’m very scared I will get killed and I got a lot of progress so I don’t know what to do now.
this is my 1st dino I tamed in my world since I spawned in south zone 2 and as soon as I spawned I heard light stomping and heavily breathing behind mend I did the spinning technique, knocked him out, fed him narcoberries, and tamed him. (I also killed few other sarcos in the area for prime meat.)
The sarcos is probably the best early to mid game mount it’s high health and stamina make it a pretty fast mount and it levels up pretty fast also not to mention its stamina and health stats level up pretty quick if you were to upgrade them Sarcosuchus are semi aquatic animals meaning the are both land and sea creatures hope this helped
Should I tame this up for you down for no
I have a krapro
Ha a sarco came to my beach stood on a cliff and pumped it full of tranqs. A surprisingly easy knockout but it took me FOREVER to get it tamed ( I used meat because I didn’t know better at the time) and I was constantly worried about dilos attacking. WARNING: BRING BIOTOXIN if you can’t bring biotoxin BRING NARCITICS they WILL need them.
They are pretty cool and easy to tame but if you are not a high level it can be hard
These guys are not actually as strong as you may think they are. If you see a sarco fighting 2 or more low to mid lvl Carbonemys do not try to tame it cuz it will die (or at least get too low for you to tranq without killing it). I have never seen any sarco win a 1v2 against Carbonemys, including the lvl 95 sarco that tried to spawn camp my thatch house when I was just starting and later the lvl 130 sarco that I planned on taming :(
Easy to get a low level Sarco early game with just a club and some fish meat. Their turning radius is horrible so just stay by the tail and your safe.
It took me 30 seconds to finish taming this beast.
It’s easy just try Sattle is level 35
For a low level Sarco use at most 8 tranq arrows make sure it can’t run once knocked out give it meat if You can force feed it a soothing balm after eating 3 or 4 meat boom you have a Sarco up if this was helpful
When you knock out a sarco, you can jump on it like a trampoline, it’s 🤩
These things are super cool. They are extremely fast in water, gain stamina instantly in water, but are a little slow on land. They are super easy to tame.
Sarcos are actually really eassy tames, you can outrun them on land by foot, and they make great mounts (asides from raptor jumps) because if you get low, just go to the nearest body of water you can just zoom away to escape danger
Before tame “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH”
After tame “YAS MY FRIEND”
TIP: To tame sarco don’t feed it normal meat or prime, FEED IT FISH any kind of fish meat
Use fish meat instead of regular meat it works better if you don’t believe me check
Easy tame trick, First get a bear trap (recommend 3 of them for good measure) next get fish meat or prime fish meat or kibble, then condition the area around the sarco, clear distractions like herbs etc. Then place the bear traps and lure the sarco to your location and after getting stuck shoot it with the weapon of choice and then feed it and POOF u got a sarcho, now get a deinosuchus. 😈
I used 100 meat and 50 narco berrys on my single player world lvl 10 on my pvp server I have 4 lvl 450s over all pretty eazy
