How do I kill a royal griffin? royal griffin battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Griffin Eggs Take 2.5 Hours to Hatch
Griffins will be located on the north west side but be careful there are also giga
Found a total of 4 on Fars Peak. Mad insane
On a server called wild ones it only took 2 griff kibble and I minor balm
Haven't tamed one yet but if you are starting do not go to the top left mountain. I did and was scared half to death by one of these things and immediately noped right out of there. Also if you intend to tame it do not go near until you are ready to tame it I had to kill one that was attacking my bird because it was out of stam.
If you want a high level griffin. Save about 60 ancient amber. You can farm these from loot drops (from the sky) look for a guide for better info.
Gather 2, 10x soothing balm. Get these from either trophy hunts or from the hourly gifting (right upper corner)
Tame low level breeding pairs. Male and female with same last names. Make eggs for kibble. There is a 16hour mating timer on the fastest speed setting. Ask your admin
Use 15 of you ancient amber to buy 2x snake grass seeds then plant them if you want (you’ll get the seeds back anyway from my experience)
Buy major soothing balm from the remaining ancient amber you have.
Then look for any high level griffin you want to tame. You can have a similar last name with the first 2 that you used for breeding, to make more cute little griffies.
(this method is time consuming, but you can just play the game you dont need to have this unless you’ve build a pretty good base and tames)
2 rules of taming one of these
1: tons of narcotics/ bio toxin to keep it asleep
2:bring soothing balm and allow kibble
I lied there is 4
3:prepare to wait for the rest of you life
4:DO NOT GO TO FAR OR IT WILL DISSAPEAR ON SINGLEPLAYER
You can ONLY find them in Far’s Peak, the northeast side of the map.
In Mobile they spawn at fars peak or the mountain closest to deadly island
Be wary. With the new update on mobile they’ve become complete nutjobs. I wouldn’t have come close to them if it wasn’t for the stupid ass daily pursuit to share a friggin photo of a griffin. And they almost can’t fit even inside dino gates anymore. And they keep spinning around the player, even with a shield, can damage the player by slapping their arse. Be careful y’all.
Very easy to find you just need to be in the right place. For example there is a mountain next to carno Island they spawn there along with allos. Beutiful creatures I have found 5 in a row on that mountain
I found a pink one? 💀 There is no logic. I just want some chiten for my Arch’s.
I am level 67 and was out by Fars Peak looking for ancient amber deposits. I find three of these and go up to them, see they have weird names, and they start attacking my tapejara! I was like, “ha Dododex, you said they don’t spawn on the island, there you go,” but then I was like after two seconds, “leave me alone, just go!” Tip, listen to the other comments to be lvl85 to make it respect you so it doesn’t chase your tame across the world.
If anyone wants to know how to get respect is the easiest one yet find your Griffin and make your Sur name the same as it's like my Griffin is versegast So I changed my name to ever Gast and it got my respect it's super nice and fast ✨✨✨
FOR NEWBIES: Spawn location of this creature is at the mountain
( top-right corner of the map ) , ideal place trap it - near beach using structure.
Griffins are found on a mountain on the north east coast that’s just about straight across from the volcano.
I’ve seen one thinking it was a argentavis, boy was I wrong
They spawn on north east mountain in mobile not sure about PC and console.
I saw one on my argy and tamed it even though I was looking for a giga their really good then I tamed the level 150 giga
When you encounter it with tame it chases rtame so you want to go with a tame that can die
