Superior Griffin Gauntlets are the Superior tier of the Griffin School gauntlets, medium witcher gear. They give 57 armor and +8% sign intensity at level 26. Their diagram is north of Giants' Toes in Skellige. They are mid-game gauntlets.
They also give +3% piercing, +4% slashing, +3% monster and +8% elemental 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%.
