Wild Stats Level-up

Type in values of a wild creature to see on which stats it's emphasized. Green values on a high-level creature are very good for breeding. If you have already tamed your creature you can try to recover the breeding stats with an external tool.[1]

Brute Sarco

The stat-calculator does not work in the mobile-view, see here for alternatives: Apps

Note that after the creature is tamed it gets bonuses on some stats depending on the taming effectiveness. This makes it hard to retrieve the levels on a tamed creature, so this tool is only for wild ones, but gives a first impression, how well the stats are distributed.


Combat

This section describes how to fight against the Brute Sarco.

General

The brute sarco Instantly attacks everything in sight and can dash to attack things from behind. The brute sarco has a massive health pool and lands about ~980 damage meaning it can kill tames pretty quickly. At the end of the mission it appears with two normal Sarcos.

Strategy

A Allosaurus pack could kill it on alpha with the Gnashed effect as gnashed does full damage even on alpha difficulty. On beta or gamma difficulity, packs of creatures such as Spinos, Gigas, and Rexes can defeat it easily.

Another strategy is to put a mount with a high health pool like a Stego while you ride it in front of the Sarco and your pack attacks from behind. It will attack you and your pack will take no damage.

Additionally, using a Bloodstalker to hang from a tree while shooting with a high quality Tek Phase Pistol is a viable strategy. Beware that the Tek Pistol has a short range so it will require you to get closer to the brute to damage it. A similar but much more risky strategy will be to use an Argentavis with Grappling Hooks if you are doing the mission solo, have no Bloodstalker, or there is nothing close enough to hang from with a Bloodstalker.(If more than one person is available for the mission, ignore the following steps and just have one person fly while the other shoots from the Agrentavis.) Once you find the brute fly above it and jump off the Argy and in quick succession grapple yourself to the bird and hang just out of reach of the Sarco to keep it from moving too much and shoot. Repeat this until the mission completes and bring lots of Element.

If you are on alpha difficulty then NEVER ride a Giga and attack it as the Giga will enrage in seconds resulting in a dismount and you falling into the sarco’s attack range.

Weaponry

Ranged weapons are good for killing it as it can attack from all sides and kill you in a single hit.

Dangers

It has a massive health pool and high damage so underprepared players and tames can be killed quickly. The Sarcos at the end of the mission should not have their strength be underestimated either.

Weakness

  • Despite have a lot of health and having damage reduction from tamed dinos in Alpha, Gnashed effect still work on it so a pair of Allosaurus is recommended if you want to fight it in Alpha level.
  • It is quite slow
  • The brute sarco has a low chance to change its target whilst attacking.
