When taming Griffins I always use my high level Argy, he has nearly 20k health and I set him to passive and let the Griffin bite him as I shoot it, or I let the Griffin bite me because although they have decent damage, flak armour and 800 health seem enough to survive,

It should take about 46 regular darts to get a level 60 to fleeing amount of torpor including inaccurate shots, after that about 9 more for it to go to sleep, I'd recommend first taming the lowest level you can find and then using it to

tame higher levels later, if you want a high level Griffin without taming worse ones first, a trap would be necessary,

I haven't tested it yet, but building an octagonal amphitheatre/coliseum shaped trap of wood or above to delay it's escape with slightly over hanging walls so it doesn't fly away when it flees would probably do, after it goes to sleep normal meat should tame it after a while, but be prepared to lose a lot of narcoberries/toxin/narcotics

(Long post, lots of good details) Taming Griffin is a pain, but doable. In short: trap, attack, sleep, KO, balm, and feed method, with some useful tactics. I play single-player casual hard for this, and i wanted a breeding pair to tame unicorn.

1) Go to the rocky tower between Maw and Eastern Shore, directly across from waterfall (in mobile La41.2 Lo65.7) Clear off bronto by agro and lead it off the edge. Bronto won't respawn, and no predators can reach this location.

2) Set up classic argy taming pen ( 4 stone gate frames, 3 stone pillars, 1 reinforced gate). To build, stand with your back to Far's Peak, aka Griffins' Peak, and make sure gate opens in.

3) Out of reach of the trap, set up 2 preserving bins, a pestle and mortar, and a sleeping bag. In the direction of Far's Peak, also out of range, put a torch to guide you in if trapping at night.

4) Fly on pteranodon and locate a low level (10 to 30) griffin. Agro and slowly lead it back to trap. Fly in level to ensure griffin goes in, Pteranodon will fly right through, trapping griffin when you close the gate.

5) Now use a rex, allo, argy, or whatever, and fill both preserving bins with Prime meat, I used my giga as i had one. Also put in about 70 biotoxin in one preserving bin.

6) NOTE: If you save/exit at this point, and I recommend you do, remember the food level in griffin will reset, so the next steps will need to be done without any saves.

7) Partially tranq, but do not KO, the griffin. This will start food depletion. Now sleep, and then KO. You want the food down as low as possible for rapid tame.

8) Apply 10x soothing balm, then load up with prime meat. if taming doesn't finish during rapid feeding, then use biotoxin, and feed 4 prime meat at a time, to keep in in preserving bin as long as possible.

9) I was able to tame a level 20 without needing any biotoxin, and a level 50 only needing some at the end.

10) My female ending -ena and male ending -rna were able to mate, so Only Last 2 Letters must match!

-Good Luck

Make a tunnel out of dino gates with enough space for you to fit through sides, and put doors only on ends. close one door and lure it to door and stop just outside of doorway since they never stop flying forward, they will run all the way to end of tunnel and you can shut other door and start shooting through the sides.

People might say, “Oh, make a trap!” and stuff. But really, just get a harpoon launcher, a net projectile, a longneck rifle, and a bunch of tranq darts. Simple, you find them at Waterwall of Ancients, Upper Hidana, and Dag Rock Canyon or smth like that on Ragnarok. (Btw, regular raw meat is just fine for taming.)
