The "whirlwind knockdown ability" that gryphons have does not seem to realize if a player empath has the gryphon manipulated. I don't know if this is an area effect ability or not, but if it is targeted this seems silly. It also doesn't seem to effect the "enemy" gryphon the "friendly" gryphon is fighting (maybe other gryphons are immune?).
Anyway, I assisted about this a bit ago, but I was told it may take some time to be adjusted. Just wanted to drop a note on the boards as well.
