These things are aggressive not friendly.

They are the fastest creature in ark, it's a good adquisition

Feet hit the bay, look around black sand, hear a hawk noise, look up.

Proceed to pray to Thor. Because the Griffin is divebombing your noob a**

IT can be found on Valguero (like for Dododex)

If you've got a best friend you like to explore a lot with you're gonna want this mythical beastie.

How to tame a Griffin:

1. Find a flat area for the trap.

2. Set up 6 Stone Dinosaur Gateframes in a row with a Reinforced Dinosaur Gate on the 1st and the 6th Gateframe.

3. Make the Griffin follow you by either coming near it or shooting at it.

4. Make it follow you inside the trap and quickly run out and close the Gate.

5. Shoot the Griffin with Tranq Darts (Arrows are only going to kill it).

6. Feed the beast meat.

And you tamed a Griffin. It doesn't require a saddle so you can use it instantly after taming it.

So if you want to tame a griffin you'll need about 50 tranq arrows for a 1-35 lvl then 50+ for any levels 40+ and two crossbows (just in case the other breaks). You don't necessarily NEED a trap but it is recommended! (Bigger traps are always better). You can find traps on yt. (ALSO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A PTERANDON) ALSO BRING NARCOTICS! I thought I didn't need them and I was mistaken, so I had to use narco berries. SO YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

So once you got all of that you need to find a griffin. Once you've found one you'll need to knock it out by putting it inside the trap. Or you can make it surround you (it has terrible turning radius) then knock out. If you don't have a trap to use on the griffin it will run and probably agro on another dino while trying to run.(use that chance to knock it out, try not to do it over water). Once knocked out feed narcotics when the unconscious level gets to the first " s" . Recommend prime meat or mutton but just normal meat will work also (normal meat will just have less than an effect) then boom! You got yourself a griffin!

Sorry if you don't understand!

Starve timer is waaaaaaaayyyy off.

Their fast dive bomb ability makes them a prime canidate for escaping wyverns after stealing an egg.

Best map to find these is crystal isle theres a trench full of them in dessert

They can strafe like a tapejara. Good way to mitigate their bad turn radius is hold left or right while looking where you want to turn. Cuts radius in half.

This is way I do , personally.

1.make atleast, 4 or 5 STONE dinosaur gates and 2 stone dinosaur gate doors

2. Make a Net launcher thing and a net projectile.

3. Make sure that you're on a tame or have on some good armor so while it's going at you, you don't die

4. Shoot the net projectile at the griffin and then place the stone gateways over (with little gaps so you can shoot but also small enough ot can't glitch through) and the put the gateway doors in.

5. I would suggest using longneck, crossbow or compound bow (if you have the m available) but a regular bow works as long as you have , I would say 20-40 TRANQ arrows.

6. Try aiming for the head so it can speed things up with 4-7 second intervals

7. MUTTON is going to be the BEST taming food once it's knocked

8. Enjoy your new griffin lol - Kameron

Great for stealing Wyvern eggs on Fjordur.

For a cheap trap look up captain fatdog

Absolutely fantastic mounts. Up their stamina a few times as well as their weight, and you've got yourself a fantastic globe-trotter. I use mine for getting supply drops at night. Put an otter on your neck for temperature regulation or a Jerboa as a backpack and you've got yourself a perfect world-traveling setup. Griffin's are absolutely fantastic 10/10.

INF STAMINA ON THE GRIFFIN

If you want inf stamina on the griffin whistle your griffin to follow, hop off the main seat and get on the passenger seat (you can stand on the back and tail of the griffin while in mid-air) and switch back if the energy is full! just be careful as you might end up falling off!

warning: if you're playing on ragnarok, make sure you don't go too far from it, and come prepared with some kibble or mutton, i was taming one in the canyon part, then i realized i needed some narcotics (btw my base was on the other side of the map),, long story short i went to my base and got the sleeping medicine, and when i get back thanks to the tracker, and as soon as i get there the griffin was inside the ground,then i decided to be stupid and dismount my flying creature and get killed by a sarco and the alpha raptor that was behind him, AGAIN make sure you come prepared and with food so you don't suffer the same i did

hit the up buttonPLEASEES

Best place on Rag to find Griffins in the mouth of the river that runs through the canyon, right next to the swamp. At least 5 different spawns in this area, I've seen 3 in one spot before 😂😂 hope this helps anyone looking for a good taming spot!

Just tamed my first griffin on fjorhor, level 135 and it’s mostly easy if you just have a harpoon gun and net projectiles, also I used tranq darts but obviously you could just build a trap for it and there’s plenty of tutorials on YouTube but I just found it easier and less time consuming if you just net it.

I have a way that doesn’t require dino gates but does require something else: Get 10 stone pillars, one stone ceiling, a stone stair, a flyer (pteranodon is preferable), darts and meat. Set 5 pillars in a U shape and double stack them and put ceiling on middle pillar. Lure Griffin into trap and place a stone stair behind so can’t move. Dart it and BOOM! You got a Griffin!
