Tips & Strategies

Taming a griffin is not easy, they keep moving like most flyers, I would tame them with a trap and tranq darts and use mutton or prime!

You need to use TRANQ DARTS after the griffin nerf.
i’m a lazy guy, and i don’t usually use traps when i tame things, other than BIG things like a reaper queen or a giga, but THIS IS THE EXCEPTION. unless your dad is apollo, it is impossible to knock one of these guys out without using a trap, for my case anyway. they are ridiculously fast, and they will circle you and attack you. however, the griffin is worth the trouble. it’s one of the fastest fliers, does devastating damage compared to other fliers, other than your typical high-level argy, doesnt need a saddle to ride, can fit two people, and not to mention it looks amazing. however, it can’t pick up many things, it can only pick up smaller creatures. if you carry cryopods around with you though, this shouldn’t be a problem. up this if you found this helpful! -J
Like if they should stop being so stubborn when you try to fly them in a trap
Can people stop with ''In mObİlE'' thing, this is the griffin on computers. For mobile, go to Royal Griffin
On mobile you cannot tame these unless you are a higher level than 85, i knocked one out and said it didn’t respect me and it wouldn’t let me tame it :(
I tamed one by cageing myself and hitting it with my fist
You do not need a saddle for griffins
You CAN tame them with a crossbow.
Wait 5-7 seconds between shots and there is no way you will kill it. Torpor raises over time, arrows/darts are not instant.
You do not "have to have" tanq darts.
They can fly through open stone dino gates so build a taming pin with that in mind to make it easier to tame otherwise you will be chasing it down alot.
General Argentavis taming pens will work, it is a knockout game that is not narcotic heavy. Will require quite a lot of tranqs. Have fun taming it everyone!
