Appearance
Brute Sarco appear similar to the normal but are larger.

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 buff as gnashed does full damage even on alpha difficulty. On beta or gamma a pack of spinos or gigas could defeat it but the tek giga spawns at a 20% higher level so one well bred tek giga with a good saddle could defeat it.

Another strategy is to put a mount (with A high health pool for example. megachelon) 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.

If you are on alpha difficulty then NEVER ride a a giga and attack it as the gigs will rage in seconds and when it roars you will fall 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 also the sarcos at the end of the mission are pretty powerful.
