Found throughout the ARKs, the Griffin is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Flyer category.
Stamina sits at 225 base, providing moderate endurance. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Griffin has respectable melee power. At 950 base HP, the Griffin is solidly tanky. Weight capacity starts at 280, giving it good carrying capacity.
You'll need to knock the Griffin unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. Extraordinary Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
As a tame, the Griffin is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 12°C and 16°C. Defeating one in the wild grants 3 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.68 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
