Griff

You meet Griff only during the second and the third mission - Merchants - Miscellaneous - Dishonored - Game Guide and Walkthrough

You meet Griff only during the second and the third mission. What is interesting, the first time you meet him, you actually need to save him from gangsters trying to apprehend him (to learn more, read the guide for the second mission). After Griff is saved, you will be able to meet him in one of the side alleys, close to the Clavering Boulevard and the distillery door. I recommend that you turn your interest only to his blueprints, so that Piero can build new items after you deliver them to his workshop. As for regular items, I do not recommend buying them, as they are way more expensive than at Piero's. A detailed of what Griff has in stock, as well as their usefulness is presented below.
