What is a griffin used for? griffin battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Cool pvp battle stance:
Setting: redwoods, large portion of enemy tribe coming through in a few seconds
Creature 1: deinonychus (ridden by human, clinging high up to redwood tree, preferably at least 10
Creature 2: thylacoleo (ridden by human, clinging high up to tree, ready for pounce, preferable at least 3)
Creature 3: griffin (ridden by human, flying high in the sky, human on back with RPG, at least two)
Procedure: when the enemy comes close, use the thylacoleos to pounce smaller creatures or humans, and use the deinonychuses to kill the larger ones. The griffins go into dive and, when close to ground, passenger fires rocket. Griffin does slam, then rises back into sky and repeats. You have the enemy down in a matter of minutes with few casualties, and you have struck a major blow against an enemy tribe.
Up if you want more!
If Griff is on Neutral and standing near you while you’re in the water when a fish attacks you, the Griff will fly away... and away... and away. Had to chase mine 4 map quadrants. It was almost like it was on wander. Has something to do with a glitch and not being able to attack water units. This happened 4 times to me in 2 weeks.
Griffins are the kings of the sky! Pump melee and stamina, health is probably a good thing to have until you get your technique down. Swoop down (look at the ground and sprint while in the air) and while in mid-swoop, attack! I have gotten dmg over 1.1k on a good dive. On top of the damage dealt, the AoE is pretty good too
