Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a sarco? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a sarco.
If you are taming it in the middle of the swamp, make sure to protect the area around it so it doesn’t get killed.
I tamed a sarco lvl 135 with crossbow when it was eating parasur. It need 10 trike kibble.
If you tame it in the lower south cave there is a way to get it out just leed it throw one of the water pools at the end they're should be a ledge you both can climb up and just follow the path back up if he gets stuck just break and nearby rocks or crystals and you should be fine I play on Xbox so it might not work for every system
These things are easier to kill than dodos
Timer way off on aberration. Haven't tamed on other maps. Plan on extra food and time.
I reccomend going on top of a tall or steep rock and shoot it with tranque arrows till it falls asleep do not go near it in the water
Never, NEVER go into the water while fighting sacro's but they are slow on land use the bow when your on land (Hide armor recommended)
Does anyone know if a sarco can knock down a spike wall?
fix timers. server is a 3/1 rate on tame and didnt add up. please fix
Keep near it's back legs when fighting. They can't turn well
Get on a rock and shoot it. This worked so well for me. You don't have to use any pillars or doorframes.
My favourite dino good in water and land don't go in a swamp to tame find one in a lake use tranqs and bow,crossbow or rifle or if a low level use rocks. In teams unstoppable get a team of these guys and some kapros and a spino there is your water and land team sorted and I recommend taming them
Good starts! Get bow with Trank arrows and shoot away! Fast in water. Pump health and attack.
You and a tribemate get a pentradon and cross bows with tranq arrows shoot it and give it meat watch closely I lost one at 97.6 %to a weak bird in the south zones.
But with tranqs also don't tame in water caves! They will get stuck...
Press the up arrow to dread the word to new people like me
Probably the best tip I got is to stay on land since these things are most deadly in water so if you see these things in the water the you should probably stay cautious
Try to get the sarco far from water
Taming these and raising their movement speed and health on aberration really helped me out
Just dont fight with trike....trike will unconscious your sarco and you may loose battle and your items. Your trike may kill sarco but wild trike will have more chance to make your sarco unconscious!!! Just happened now. I was killing dodo and hit trike accidentally and they 4 attack on my sarco. I won the battle without my sarco but waited around half hour to wake up my sarco again!!🙁
I tamed a female and I used 4 tranqs with a crossbow for a lvl 4 sarco while on a rock but I tried a bola and lost my flak armor after hunting rexs oh and when I tried the bola I was not on a rock. So stay on rocks lol
