Tips & Strategies
Mobile a pain, but doable. Basic trap, attack, sleep, KO, balm, and feed method with some useful tactics. I play single-player casual hard for this, and i wanted a breeding pair to tame unicorn.
1) Go to Lat 41.2 Lon 65.7 the rocky tower between Maw and Eastern Shore, directly across from waterfall. Clear off bronto by agro and lead it off the edge. Bronto won't respawn, and no predators can reach this location.
2) Set up classic argy taming pen ( 4 stone gate frames, 3 stone pillars, 1 reinforced gate). To build, stand with your back to Far's Peak, aka Griffins' Peak, and make sure gate opens in.
3) Out of reach of the trap, set up 2 preserving bins, a pestle and mortar, and a sleeping bag. In the direction of Far's Peak, also out of range, put a torch to guide you in if trapping at night.
4) Fly on pteranodon and locate a low level (10 to 30) griffin. Agro and slowly lead it back to trap. Fly in level to ensure griffin goes in, Pteranodon will fly right through, trapping griffin when you close the gate.
5) Now use a rex, allo, argy, or whatever, and fill both preserving bins with Prime meat, I used my giga as i had one. Also put in about 70 biotoxin in one preserving bin.
6) NOTE: If you save/exit at this point, and I recommend you do, remember the food level in griffin will reset, so the next steps will need to be done without any saves.
7) Partially tranq, but do not KO, the griffin. This will start food depletion. Now sleep, and then KO. You want the food down as low as possible for rapid tame.
8) Apply 10x soothing balm, then load up with prime meat. if taming doesn't finish during rapid feeding, then use biotoxin, and feed 4 prime meat at a time, to keep in in preserving bin as long as possible.
9) I was able to tame a level 20 without needing any biotoxin, and a level 50 only needing some at the end.
10) My female ending -ena and male ending -rna were able to mate, so Only Last 2 Letters must match!
-Good Luck
More Royal Griffin Taming & KO Tips
Hey there! This is A SUPER SERIOUS TIP! If u want a high level use a 15x soothing balm⦠they cost 45 amber but an easy way to get amber is to go around the map on ur fastest flyer or mount and open supply drops⦠there is a 25% chance u will get amber, the better the drop, the more amber u get, also if u find a ringed drip they have a 40% to drop amber, underwater drops have a 30% of amber drop, ringed underwater drops have a 50% chance of amber drop, the maximum amber u can get from a drop is 5. Also cave drops have a 25% to drop amber⦠One more thing, the artifact of the strong can reward amber occasionaly as well. -Valkeri
If you need to tame a royal Griffin in 30 second then do this:-
Step1:-go in the top of Griffin mountain and put trap and trap it and
Wait for night then put a bed and sleep this will do your Griffin food zero
Step2:-then knock it
Step3:-give 10Γbalm and put your meat or prime meat or griffin kibble fast
Don't unclaim it because it will not die after 15 min. But it will become a real wild griffin and get angry on you.
U need to be level 85^ to tame
If a Griffin doesen't respects you, you can't tame it.
The most time consuming creature to tame
If you have the same last name as a griffen it will respect you
If youβre in single player, Taming these will be much easier, just follow these steps.
1. Select a low lvl griffin, Lead it away from the mountian into a trap where there are no creatures
2. Place down a bed and sleep, this will cause the griffin to be starving when u KO it. (Only works in single player, in Multiplayer just leave it trapped for a few hours and dont let it kill anything)
3. Knock it out, Get soothing balm and give it to the griffin, Then get prime meat or allo kibble and give it to the griffin. Just make sure you have enough so that it tames
4. Get another low lvl griffin with the same last letters in its name that is the opposite gender.
5. Repeat the process, tame up around 2-4 females and 1 male only.
6. Breed them, make griffin kibble.
7. Repeat the process with a high lvl griffin, but use griffin kibble instead.
Quick tip: when i tamed a 290 griffin at 10x balm it needed 4 griffin kibble and at 15x balm it needed 3, if that helps.
PRO TIP FOR MOBILE USERS!!!
Do not spend ancient amber on soothing balm.
Instead do this.
1. (Optional) Get aurthoplura pet (Recommended from clever cave) you can tame a lvl 70 with one broth of enlightenment, although it is a pain getting the black pearl. It is passive tame but you can easily get close with bug repellent and ghillie armor, The aurthoplura is a good tame cuz no other animal can see it.
2. Go speedrun the caves with aurthoplura with its stealth you can easily pass any enemies.
3. Do the snow cave first (remember to bring fur) and bring about 5 sleeping bags find the artifact (you can do the entire cave with this guy place sleeping bags near artifact grab one, and then die respawn near obelisk tribute it and die again respawn back at sleeping bag and so forth. Do this until you get gas mask. (You can teleport tame out of cave).
4.head to swamp cave with buddy, gas masks and sleeping bag, do the cave (you might have to do some of it on foot so I recommend bring weapon) find artifact place sleeping bags and repeat.
You can also do this in lave cave and get acendent weapons (mastercraft if in easy) and also will not work so easily in hardcore.
Got 15 times 10 soothing balm this way
Hope this helps ;) WCKDD1
UP SO ALL CAN SEE PLS
These are so mean on mobile. I go up the mountain for rare mushrooms to tame a kangaroo π¦. Come down to 5 of these trying to kill my equus. AND when I knock one out it says "IT DOES NOT RESPECT YOU" and I'm like "Waaaaaaaa"
