📋 About This Mod
The Power of the Griffon for DAI
::Requirements:
Trespasser DLC
::Features:
There are two .daimod files included in this package - GriffonArmorPlus.daimod and griffonarmorplusplus.daimod.
The first changes the slots on the Griffon Armor schematics as follows:
Griffon Robe now requires 26 Cloth Primary/20 Cloth Utility/10 Cloth Utility/16 Cloth Defense.
Griffon Mail now requires 26 Leather Primary/20 Leather Utility/10 Leather Utility/16 Leather Defense.
Griffon Plate now requires 26 Metal Primary/20 Metal Utility/10 Metal Utility/16 Metal Defense.
The second adds upgrade slots to all Griffon Armor schematics.
::Installation:
Copy the .daimod files to your DAI mod directory.
Open and merge with DAI Mod Manager.
Either file may be used independently of the other, so if you only want the improved griffon armors, install GriffonArmorPlus, and if you only want the upgrade slots, install only griffonarmorplusplus.
::Known Issues:
Armor upgrades may clip through the base armor; this is because most armor schematics in the game are not designed to add upgrade slots. It occasionally creates a cool effect though (like Blackwall's arm upgrades melding with the upper part of the Griffon Plate).

A compact mod for Dragon Age: Inquisition that significantly enhances the Griffon armor series by improving crafting slots and optionally adding upgrade slots. Requires the Trespasser DLC.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a common complaint by expanding crafting slots on Griffon armor.
- Optional upgrade slots give you flexibility in how you customize your gear.
- Simple, focused mod with a clear purpose—no bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 61 endorsements—small community, so less tested than popular mods.
- Last updated in 2018—may not be compatible with the latest game patches.
- Requires Trespasser DLC, so it's useless if you don't own that expansion.
For Dragon Age: Inquisition players who love the Griffon armor's look but wish it had better stats and more customization. If you're a completionist who wants to min-max your gear, this is a must-have. Skip if you don't have Trespasser or prefer lore-friendly tweaks over gameplay buffs.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you own the Trespasser DLC before installing—the mod won't work without it.
- Since it's a simple file drop, just place the files in your Dragon Age: Inquisition mod folder and activate them with the DAI Mod Manager.
- If you're using other armor mods, check for conflicts—this mod only touches Griffon armor, but load order can still matter.
