These things take way more tranqs than dodoex suggests. Took me approx 200 tranq arrows (5 - 10 second interval between shots) to tame a lvl 193
Griffin

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Griffin in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You can’t run from this thing, unless you use an insanely fast dino for example a pteradon. I used a parachute and still died WHILE STILL IN THE PARACHUTE FLYING!
Best flyer non-wyvern flyer in the game, has a good speed and stamina, good weight and health and has very useful divebomb attack and diving to give more speed when flying
if you dive at an enemy to gain a lot of speed then swoop up at the last moment while also attacking, you will do A LOT more damage than just attacking normally, and if done right you won't take any damage from what you are fighting because you're too fast. I have…
if you dive at an enemy to gain a lot of speed then swoop up at the last moment while also attacking, you will do A LOT more damage than just attacking normally, and if done right you won't take any damage from what you are fighting because you're too fast. I have killed a wild giga this way (it is a very long and painful process, I do not recommend)
Bring a flame thrower and flame people once you pick them. Most people find this cheap but it’s better to get trash talked in global and win than be dead and feel honorable.

How to mass tame(Best for PVE)
1) Build 1-3 traps made out of 3 stone gateways and 2 reinforced gates on top of a rock on crystal isles by the griffin trench
2) Get a harpoon launcher with net projectiles (unlockable in genesis 2 engram section)
3) Get any flyer…
How to mass tame(Best for PVE)
1) Build 1-3 traps made out of 3 stone gateways and 2 reinforced gates on top of a rock on crystal isles by the griffin trench
2) Get a harpoon launcher with net projectiles (unlockable in genesis 2 engram section)
3) Get any flyer, preferably ptera, snow owl or griffin and bait a high lvl griffin over to ur trap
4) When the griffin is close, quickly fly over to the trap and land right behind it, repeat until the griffin flies into the trap
5) Dismount and net gun the griffin
6) Close the gate
7) U can also trap more griffins if u built more traps
8) Shoot with tranq arrows if you know it has 4k+ hp, if it has less you can do half with arrows half with darts or just with darts.

This is how I mass tamed alot of griffins on a PVE server where they are breedable, it really helped me with breeding amazing griffins
On the server I did this there's 2.5x tame speed and 2x food drain rate and I never have to use narcotics, so if on the server ur doing this it's similiar or the same u don't need any narcotics
With the Griffen you can dive onto a enemy and click before you land it does loads of damage 5x as much the higher you go the more damage it does.
For the people that are saying they spawn on val, they dont.
They were shown in the trailer but dont actually spawn.
Keep them agro to something else and shoot at them! They are found in a ravine on crystal isles. They are found more in the mountains, these are easy to tame if you knock it out and then put spikes around it but make enough room for your other tame.
We so want these to be breedable even if nerfed!
Make a trap (with stone, leave gaps) with 2 gates on each end. Lead it into the trap with Argy. Go out other gate with Argy. Shoot Griffin with tranqs through gaps in trap. There you go!
To KO them without a trap, all you need to do is either ride a fast tame, or upgrade your movement speed. If they are chasing you, they follow you in a straight line until their torpor rises. By getting them to chase you by aggroing them, once you get far enough away, start…
To KO them without a trap, all you need to do is either ride a fast tame, or upgrade your movement speed. If they are chasing you, they follow you in a straight line until their torpor rises. By getting them to chase you by aggroing them, once you get far enough away, start shooting them with tranq arrows/darts/etc. This method allows you to get hits in them without the use of a trap, or taking too much damage if you do it correctly.
Just five stone doorways in a row, two doors, one on either end, get an iguanodon. Get it to chase you, as you pass second gate, hop off and close it, it gets stuck run round and shut other, boom!!
Use tranq arrows but bring a snow owl with you to heal during knock out
great!
game show me how to tame and what to feed to a griffin or lantiron.
There is a insanely huge Griffin nest area in Crook's canyon. I found at least five there.
Your best bet is to trap it get a sacrifice pteranodon and hop out the trap and close it (like so people can see)
Who ever said that ‘15 griffins killed them’ I’m not expert but I’m pretty sure only one or two spawn at a time.............................................. even if not I doubt 15 spawn at same time :/
On mobile, these guys are a pain in the butt to tame, first, you have to trap ‘em, which is already difficult, then the easy bit is knocking them out, and then there’s getting 100 allo kibble while keeping them out, AND THAT ONLY DOES 1.1%
