Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a royal griffin? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a royal griffin.
Please don’t go Taming a high level with allo kibble it will take over a hundred if it’s a high level on hard and several hours. Instead tame 2 low level griffins with the same letters at the end of their name, breed them and make their egg into a kibble which will need snake plant seeds which can be bought for amber. This will take less time and less resources to tame.
I tamed a level 30 (my max level) with around 15-20 allo kibble with a 10x balm still took awhile because they eat slow but it was worth it! Plus I was on single player so I had all the time in the world
GUYS DONT TAME A MAX LEVEL GRIFFIN WITH ALLO KIBBLE WORST MISTAKE IN MY LIFE!!!
Step 1: find a low level griffin 1-100~
Step 2: DONT waste amber buying allo kibble(you can still use only if you can still buy x15)
Step 3: find a place between redwood and swamp to place trap
Step 4: GET PRIME (kill pacer sarco snake) you get like 2%~ for a lv 70
Step 5: x15
Step 6: NARCOTIC BIO TOXIC
Step 7: FEED and WAIT
Extra: a bin to keep prime from spoile
Extra 2: save the game
Step 8: breed low level, make kibble, tame high level
Unnecessary step: find a unicorn and kill it(just like me killing 2 unicorn 😎)
I’m on a private server (hard difficulty), where most Dodo functions (taming time & kibble amount ) are accurate. However, the taming times & kibble amount is inaccurate for the Royal Griffin. I wind up taming a level 240 lvl but it took over +20minutes, 2 super Griffin kibble, and 200 narcotics. I used major soothing balm too. According to the Dodo app, with major soothing balm the tame should have took little over 4minutes with only 1 super Griffin kibble. As suggested, bring extra kibble and narcotics!
To start the tame process, I used the dino gate method and trapped the Griffin. Essentially, I used to a Pteranodon and allowed the Griffin to agro me and lured the Griffin into the dino gate setup. I used a high damage rifle (+1000 damage) with tranq darts for the knockout. It took +20 darts each dart spaced out every 5 seconds.
Of course the longest process is acquiring the super Griffin kibble! I had to tame two of the same name line, male & female (one was lvl 10 & other was lvl 30) using the carnivore pheromone. The pair can only mate once every 8 hours & to make the kibble you have to purchase the snake seeds (along with growing the essential crops! (potatoes, corn, and lemons).
It’s a looooong process but it’s worth it. The Griffin at high level is very formidable. I have taken down Gigas & Titans with relative ease!
To the person who said they couldn’t find any on mobile i’m sure they spawn near mountains.(I hope this was useful)
Use allo kibble and 10x soothing balm on a low level griffin it’s better then using raw prime meat
If you share the same "Surname" as the Griffin you see it will respect you at any level and you can take it as well.
If you're like me without a primal pass and without a god console below level 90 you need to to this step to tame one.
1. Bring 500 biotoxin and 6-10 Allosaur kibble for level 10 Griffin and below it (Depends on the level)
2. Go to the mountain.
3. Set up the Griffin trap about 5 dino gates and 2 dino door.(you can see it on YouTube)
4. Bring also a bed and a foundation, wall and ceiling (so you can sleep without the restriction of "too bright can't sleep"
5. Find some Griffin ending with the last name as yours. If you can't find, kill all the Griffin without the last 2 letters of similar to yours. Wait and be patient kill then wait repeat until you find one with the last 2 letter of the name is similar to your name. (This method will make the Griffin respect you and you will be able to tame that Griffin)
6. Lure it to the trap
7. Shoot it with all you've got to make it unconscious.
8. Use soothing balm and Allosaur kibble
9. Feed it with biotoxin then sleep.(to skip 7 hrs time.)
They are also in mobile but only on one mountain but they always spawn (someone asked)
You must gain their respect before trying to tame one otherwise you'll end up using your soothing balms and other resources in vain as they only start taming once you have their respect. To do this you must atleast be at lvl 85 or above. You can also use a name change ticket to make your name same as the Griffin you wish to tame as this will earn their respect. Or you could buy the gold crown available in the shop.
There's a bug in singleplayer, that if you unclaim your griffin, then leave and rejoin, it will turn into a normal wild griffin, except the only thing different is that it still has the stats from when it was tamed (and also it will be boosted by any soothing balms if you used one on it when you tamed it)
Then, you can knock out, and tame your griffin again and the exp will be reset back to 0.
Of course this only works in old ark mobile, and do with this information what you may.
Don’t unclaimed it will attack all your tames it doesn’t even do the unclaimed in 15 minutes plz up me and my cuz hade to leave the server
Make sure you have soothing balm. Also, I tried to use Allosaurus Kibble and it just didn’t work out well. Use raw prime meat instead, it seems to do about 1.75 taming without the soothing balm. Since the balm increases it by 10%, I think it’d be about 17.5 taming with it. So ye. Also I have no idea on how to get the kibble from them to tame that lovely unicorn named Morkin that you’ve been wanting it tame for the past month. Hmm oddly specific, right?
I tamed a level 5 griffin on mobile in 1 hour with meat
Thankyou so much to the person who explained the names I was having so much trouble with this that is so helpful!!!

Don’t bother using bunch of allo kibble, just get a tek kibble processors and process it’s implant to become a kibble! there’s a small chances that eery griffin would comes out if you’re lucky.. didn’t know if this method can be done at other ark version in mobile this still relevant and trust me it really worth!
!!They don’t need a lot of griff kibble to tame!!
A level 300 griffin will tame with 5 normal griffin kibble and a 10x balm. Bring 6-7 if you’re playing on brutal.
He ate 70 prime meat with 10x soothing balm not 47
When you are raising baby griffins on single player (I don’t suggest) you can occupy your Boredom by breeding dodo’s until you have really big ones or really small ones 😃
I just found out you can use titanaboa kibble on these
