Spawn a wild Griffin
cheat summon Griffin_Character_BP_C
Open the console with ~, paste, hit Enter. All Griffin commands ↓ — tamed, leveled, variants, one-tap copy.

Spawn a tamed Griffin at any level

gmsummon spawns it already tamed. Set the level below — it's the pre-tame level, and ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus on top, so the final creature lands higher. Change the number, copy, paste.

cheat gmsummon "Griffin_Character_BP_C" 150
≈ level 225 once tamed

A gmsummon-tamed Griffin still needs a saddle — it isn't force-tamed. Want it instantly, level aside? Use cheat SummonTamed Griffin_Character_BP_C (random level).

ARK Griffin FAQ — Ability, Uses & Spawn Commands

What does the Griffin do in ARK?
Capable of a high-speed Dive Bomb: while flying in sprint mode, pitching sharply downward builds speed and the resulting impact delivers roughly 3x base landing damage; striking a target mid-dive before the attack completes converts it into a Dive Swipe dealing 10–15x base damage. Can carry two riders simultaneously, both of whom can use weapons while mounted. Griffin is a carnivore. Griffins are not breedable because they lack genders — a single tamed Griffin is permanent without replacement via breeding. Found naturally on Ragnarok. Knockout tame; torpor rises sharply near max so build an enclosure to prevent escape before it flees.
How do you use the Griffin's ability in ARK?
Left-click performs a standard claw swipe. To Dive Bomb, engage sprint flight (Shift + W by default) then pitch the camera sharply downward — the Griffin accelerates into a dive. Connecting with a target during the dive before the attack animation resolves converts the move into the far more damaging Dive Swipe. The Griffin has no radial-menu abilities; all attacks are direct keybind inputs. Because Griffins are not breedable (they have no gender), always tame the highest level possible — you cannot breed for stat improvements. Level Melee Damage to maximize Dive Bomb and Dive Swipe damage output, and Stamina to sustain prolonged aerial engagements. The two-passenger capacity means a pilot plus a weapon-wielding gunner for coordinated air attacks. Its flight speed and dive make it one of the fastest ground-to-air offense platforms available.
What is the Griffin good for in ARK?
PvP aerial combat (Dive Swipe burst damage), fast two-person transport, scouting, hit-and-run raiding, passenger gunner platform.
What is the Griffin spawn command in ARK?
Open the console with ~ and enter cheat summon Griffin_Character_BP_C to spawn a wild Griffin in ARK: Survival Ascended. For a tamed one at a level you choose, use cheat gmsummon "Griffin_Character_BP_C" 150. On a server, run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> first and keep the cheat prefix.
How do I spawn a tamed Griffin at a specific level?
Use cheat gmsummon "Griffin_Character_BP_C" <level>. The number is the pre-tame level — ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus, so a value of 100 ends up around level 150. To hit a target level, divide it by 1.5. A gmsummon creature still needs a saddle to ride.
What's the difference between summon, SummonTamed and gmsummon?
summon drops a wild Griffin at a random level. SummonTamed gives you a tamed one but at a random level you can't set. gmsummon spawns it tamed at the level you specify — the one most people want.
Do ARK spawn commands work in single player and on servers?
Yes. In single player the cheat prefix is optional and no password is needed. On a dedicated or non-dedicated session you must run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> once, then prefix each spawn with cheat. Set that admin password without hand-editing files using our free ARK config generators.
