Tips & Strategies
If you do not want to build a trap, try and knock it out in a thin canyon area, this way it is likely to get stuck on the canyon walls trying to escape, you will need high health / good armour for this.
More Griffin Taming & KO Tips
You need to use TRANQ DARTS after the griffin nerf.
iβm a lazy guy, and i donβt 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. itβs 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 canβt pick up many things, it can only pick up smaller creatures. if you carry cryopods around with you though, this shouldnβt be a problem. -J
Like if they should stop being so stubborn when you try to fly them in a trap
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.
You do not need a saddle for griffins
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.
Just tamed my first griffin on fjorhor, level 135 and itβs 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 thereβs plenty of tutorials on YouTube but I just found it easier and less time consuming if you just net it.
Heres something new to try, net the griffin you wanna tame then build a trap around it so you don't have to net ut multiple times
Please everyone just go to the YouTuber Captain FatDog.
His traps are so cheap, efficient, and just downright amazing
Please everyone check him out he makes traps for all the difficult dinosaurs. Peace out π
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!
