Griffin Boots are the basic tier of the Griffin School boots, medium witcher gear. They give 31 armor and +5% sign intensity at level 11. Their diagram lies next to George's tomb in Dragonslayer's Grotto in Velen. They are early-game boots.
They also give +1% piercing, +1% bludgeoning, +2% slashing and +2% monster resistance. The sign intensity suits a signs build, the role the Griffin set leans toward.
Set Bonus
The Griffin set is medium armor. It has five tiers: Basic at level 11, Enhanced at 18, Superior at 26, Mastercrafted at 34 and Grandmaster at 40. The 3-piece and 6-piece bonuses come from Grandmaster pieces worn as a school set. 3 pieces: after a sign cast in standard mode with stamina, the next sign cast within 3 seconds costs no stamina. 6 pieces: Yrden traps are 40% larger, and inside the trap stamina regeneration rises by 5 per second, sign intensity by 100% and damage taken drops by 20%.

The Griffin Boots diagram lies in a chest next to George's tomb at the end of Dragonslayer's Grotto in Velen, the resting place of the witcher George of Kagen. The pin marks the grotto, a stop of Scavenger Hunt: Griffin School Gear.
- Start Scavenger Hunt: Griffin School Gear by finding any of its diagrams, or by buying Edwin Greloff's First Map or Second Map from the armorer in Midcopse.
- Go to Dragonslayer's Grotto and drop down into the entrance area.
- Head inside, kill the wraiths and work down the hall.

Notes
In NG+ the diagram makes Legendary Griffin Boots instead. They need level 11 plus the NG+ starting level and give 33 armor at level 12 (+2 per level), with +11% sign intensity.
