What is a griffin used for? griffin battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
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
Yeah. They’re pretty good, my favourite flyer and one is the more tactical over practical animals unless you really pump time and levels into this thing. It’s damage to begin with is kinda meh alongside its speed, however it’s unusual mechanics pay off in both of these areas. Since they are able to fly in any direction at a time without needing their obnoxiously large turning circle, it’s not hard to swoop in and/back out of fights when necessary. Alongside this, if at any point you need to dish out significant damage, the easiest way to do so is fly directly up or in the general direction upward and fly back down, holding up. This will creating a swoop, dive, whatever you want to call it and pulling up and timing a well-executed munch will do you well. You don’t need a saddle to ride them and they’re easy tame using the six-gateframe-two-gate technique.. They look pretty, sound pretty, and they aren’t a terrible animal overall.
Also name it Peter. Peter the Griffin.
Fun tip for when ur pvping:
-If you keep picking and dropping your target it cannot grapple you so they wont be able to get away since you keep cancelling their grapple causing them to run out of grapples.
-Always bring a flamethrower (Flame throwers only do passive damage and not instant damage)
-You can pick a wyvern rider if your right below them
Insane damage potential at higher levels with a practiced rider. The base damage of the griffin's primary attack while gliding is ~180 and it scaled with melee damage %. As an example, a griffin with 46 wild points and 51 user-invested points in damage will have 759.7% damage and will be capable of doing ~1367 points of AOE damage at a fairly quick rate of fire.
