Useful Info

Griffons are large flying natural monsters, similar to hippogriffs but with stronger attacks and more HP. They are found in the later portions of the Dungeon, the Lair, and the Shoals.

Tips & Tricks

By the time you face them, most melee characters should have little difficulty soaking their damage output. Despite their decent HP, they have no resistances and low defenses, so casters should have no trouble keeping them at bay. Airstrike is particularly effective.

History

Griffons were removed in 0.19.
