Sarco

Overview

Sarco is a large carnivorous water creature. It excels at underwater combat and can quickly close distances with its Lunge attack. This makes it ideal for hunting aquatic threats and defending underwater bases. It can be airlifted by Karkinos or Quetzal for fast deployment.

The Sarco's compact size and high damage output make it a strong choice for players needing a mobile aquatic predator.

More about taming the Sarco

Tame a Sarco using the knockout method. Use a Bow with Tranq Arrows or a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts to sedate it. Immobilize it first with a Chain Bola, Bear Trap, or Large Bear Trap.

Feed it Regular Kibble for the fastest taming. Raw Prime Fish Meat also works well. The process takes about 38 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Combat notes

Sarco takes +200% more damage from spike walls, making them highly effective for defense. It is also vulnerable to explosions and melee attacks from metal weapons. Conversely, it has -50% damage taken from ranged turrets and certain projectile impacts, reducing incoming fire damage.

The Head hitbox has a 1.5x damage multiplier. Focus on headshots when sedating to reduce taming time. Other body parts have no special modifiers.

Can break Thatch and Wood. Build at least in Stone.
