At what lvl are you able to ride a griffon? And where do they transport you?

From level 6, only because thats the earliest you can enter Antonica/Common Lands, once you have finished your citizenship.

They transport to one of three fixed positions in each zone, just saves a bit of walking if you know where you want to go.

lvl 2 is enough. That is if you manage to leave isle of refuge without leveling. You dont need citizenship to go to antonica/CL.

Hmm.. mby you can turn of xp in the tutorial and manage to go to antonica as lvl 1?

Omg you were right... fixed it LOL.

Next griffon question:

How do you activate the griffons when you encounter them? I got to a couple of griffon towers and couldnt get inside.

Each tower has three platforms. One is the launch platform you approach to start flying on a griffon. The other two are landing platforms.

I actually haven't played in a while so I'm not for certain, but shouldn't each tower's launch platform be across from the ramp you run on to get up to the top?

I know this is true for the tower outside of Qeynos.

When you get to the launch platform you'll be presented with a selection of the other towers you can get to.

To add with AcrosKojin a bit, you need to walk out onto the platform. If someone else is on it, you will see a little message in your chat box saying something likes it's busy...

If you try it and nothing happens, try walking out on the other 2 platforms.

Remember you don't go "into" the tower. You walk up the ramp to the top and the griffons will appear after you make your selection. There is no animation of you climbing onto the back of the griffon.

Couple things to know:
- You can't take pets with you.
- You can't have an illusion on you.
- You can't jump off the griffon once you are airborne.
- When you land, it might not put you on the ramp. You will hanging in midair, and fall when you take a step. Here comes the damage.
- When you land you will see a red message appear at the top of your screen, "This is a landing zone, Please leave..." or something like that.

Good luck

p.s. Love your sig now :)

Ahahaha... this still happens? Well, my Guardian didn't like it much. But my Predator won't mind the safefall practice. :P

I know some people have been able to jump from where they were placed to the platform. Me, I just fell (back in the day, I found out plate armor doesn't help jumping much).

Griffons can die while you're on em? What's up with that?

No they don't. But there are some nasty bugs still around that makes them de-pop from under you, drop you off in the sky, or drop you, if your in the commonlands, at the top of a nasty aggro bee hive. Oh! And let us never forget the Black Screen of Death...
