Usage
riposte
A riposte is a quick counterattack immediately after parrying or blocking a blow. Because your enemy may be off balance from the attack, a well executed riposte has a much greater chance of hitting than a regular attack. Riposte is one of the few skills that can be used effectively when a warrior is using defensive fighting.
When you shift into riposte stance, you'll stay there for several seconds waiting for an attack before shifting out automatically. While waiting for a riposte, you will automatically fight defensively to watch and wait for an opening.
