Interesting. Veeeerrrry interestink!

The texture and feather work on the gryphons are insanely detailed. The art and animation team legitimately did an impressive job. The first time I came across the massive gryphon in Cloudrest I think I spend a few minutes just watching it.

Personally, I am very glad they put the efforts into creating this new creature...its spectacular! To me, they (and the Indriks) make Summerset stand out from all the other areas of Tamriel. Its easy to create a horrific monster, but very hard to make a player wish we had these beautiful creatures in real life! (as long as you aren't on the receiving end of an attack that is!)

great article for a great creature! The effort put forth really shows in-game.

Sooo...when can we have one to ride around on?

...plz? Even if it can't fly?

Now I want a gryphon mount

Khajiit is very impressed with the big angry chickens yes.

Would you advise to roast or perhaps a better result could be obtained by slow cooking?

It is really amazing work your team put into the models, same as many other aspects of the game!

Kram8ion · June 2018

I'd like to ride one even if it's wings have to be clipped

Can we tame one now?

Fischblut · June 2018

Beautiful creatures, and I love their idle sounds

I already tamed one, would be so cool to get them as mounts (especially that beautiful white gryphon like one of world bosses)

Unfortunately, I don't think it will happen, cause they won't actually fly and just hover above the ground, and their wings are too big when spread out and would cause lot of visual clipping in many areas

Even if they won't spread their wings, they would just be senche based mounts running with useless wings tied to their backs, this would look painful

now bring a flightless variant I can ride as a mount

I absolutely love the design of these guys! So beautiful and majestic! I'd love to see them as flying mounts someday. Please ZOS??

These gryphons have a unique design, but still retain a typical gryphon look so that you can still tell what it is. The lynx-like ears give it a charm that draws me to it. The tail is also a unique design that I like.
