Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a griffin? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a griffin.
Doesn't require a saddle, expect to use a lot of tranqs. When flying, aiming down causes the Griffin to dive for extreme speeds and slam into the ground.
I created a 4x10 stone pin, 4 high, 1 solid (wall), 3 doorway (wall, no door), 1 solid, stone doorway, repeat. Seal that roof! You should have 3 stone dino gate doorways total. Open all doors. Use a ptero with decent stamina, argo Griffin and allign yourself through the gate and lead it in (I used rare flowers to keep it interested). Have a friend close the front gate while you sacrifice your ptero to close the last (leave middle open). Trapped and occupied Griffin!
It was lvl 74 and took 70-80 tranq DARTS. Took about 40-50 pieces of regular raw meat. Needed about 300-350 narcotic jars. Took about 90 minutes (tame x5).
I grabbed the pin idea from a youtuber but mine’s smaller and does not use electric doors. Keep a small distance away from opening while shooting at it.
Best way to take them is to make an enclosed taming pen that you can lure and trap them into. Trying to tame it without one is a rough task. Because once they get to a certain amount of torpor, they fly away very fast. Making it impossible to catch up with them.
Use a a three wide stone trap with Dino gate to trap add pillars at the end so a ptera can get through but the griffin can, similar to a wyvern trap.
The easiest way is to build a trap about a 5x5 stone building made of doorframes with one end having a stone dinosaur gate get one person to fly in and trap it (to get out break one of the bottom doorframes a ptera can fly through this the other person run up behind and shut the gate
Build a cage of stone doors and trnk it on there
Bring lots of trans, I had a Griffin with 9000 torpidity once, and I suggest leading them to a cage or a cave to more easily trap them and tame them since they like flying high. They also get low to try and get you as well.
Use a crossbow and tranq arrows instead of a rifle, you will miss a lot so its better to have cheap ammo, also because you don't need a saddle to ride the griffin, you can get your tribe together early-game and slingshot the crap out of it.
Making a trap for the griffin will be much easier than chasing down in the bird in the wild
Build a taming pin to tame it and make it out of stone
They don't require a saddle and they sit two people! Enjoy bare-backing this beast, as well as being able to use a weapon!
Basic taming vessel and a little positioning and they will fly right in for a leisure tranq and tame.

He will show you the ways of a wizard!
The easiest way to tame this beauty is to cage it. It can fit throw a Dinogate so build a trap and tame some of this fantastic creatures.
This creature is one of the fastest, faster than a wyvern. Tame it using a taming pen similar to a agry taming pen. It's Torpor depletes really fast, tame it using mutton, prime meat tame takes a lot of narcotics and time. I have usually seen them in packs so be careful?. I hope this information helps you
Tamed mine with mutton, and yes, it's called peter griffin :D
the allosaurus kibbs is now added to the griffin wiki
Has a poor turning radius so you can tame it outside of a cage pretty easily as long as you are using shocking tranq darts
if a griffin does not respect you then you cannot rode it
Support hard to tame they don't refrigerate meat NEVER use raw meat EVER one peice of meat only was 0.1 each feed for a level 25
