	Riposte - WoWWiki
		Riposte is most useful against warriors, hunters, paladins, and other rogues; disabling their weapons takes most of their bite away.
		Until patch 1.5.0, you couldn't use riposte on a creature that wasn't using a weapon.

		Riposte heaved her breathy sigh and asked “Does that ever work?” And thus the weekend began.
		Later Riposte pointed out that I should have just started overtly and sleazily hitting on this woman, which would have escalated the issue at least and at best turned her off.
		DL groveled a bit, Riposte laid down the law (which I can tell she’d done before), then for the next 5 hours DL proceeded to try to worm his way into the evening, which, prior to his unexpected arrival, had turned on an apparently simple enough plan to visit Riposte’s ailing grandfather, move some bookshelves.

	A Matter of Time: Stephen Hand
		Fabris states what is clear to modern students of the rapier, that while a parry with the blade might work, the subsequent riposte will only be successful if the attacking fencer has not chosen to recover from his lunge.
		In addition to the fact that a parry-riposte with a rapier is unlikely to be successful, it leaves you open to the same sort of techniques that are used today in modern fencing to deceive a parry.
		This resulted in a universal tendency to "time", and caused an amount of uncertainty in the parries which necessarily restricted the play, except when the dagger was adjoined to the sword.

	Johannine Passion Narrative
		All such claims, challenges, and ripostes take place in the public domain, and their verdict of success or failure determines the outcome of these games of challenge and riposte (Malina 1981:30-33; Malina and Neyrey 1991a:36-38, 49-51).
		Claim, challenge, riposte and verdict, then, constitute the formal elements in the endless contests for honor and respect.
		Peter's riposte, then, is unnecessary; for, as obedient son, Jesus' honor is not threatened.

	The Elfin Ethicist: Humanities Archives
		Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels, going on in detail about visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind, and not holding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.
		He will insist on the comprehensiveness of our conception of man, as a prerequisite of our understanding of his existence, of his exploits, of his destiny, which is actually wrought in his history.
		City Journal has published an intriguing article called "The Specters Haunting Dresden." The author, Theodore Dalrymple, uses the rebuilt city of Dresden, which was firebombed out of existence by the Allies in World War II, as the basis of a discourse on the relationships among history, collective identity, and guilt.

		The bigest problem with ripost is, that you can roll more dice to defend than with a normal parry and even turn rolled die into kept.
		If you don't have ripost or special advantages(left handed, dracheneisen, skill rank 6 or legendary trait) you can't keep more dice than your trait, because your skill maximum is 5.
		If you faceing somebody with riposte that can be very ugly for you.(example: the guy with riposte attack, you make stop thrust, then he makes a riposte, if the his parry succeed you damaged once and if his riposte attack hit then you damaged twice)

		If the attack is parried and the riposte is compound or delayed, a renewed attack can gain priority, but again, to be valid the touch must arrive before the start of the final movement of the riposte.
		When composed attacks are made, the opponent has the right to stop-hit; but to be valid the stop-hit must precede the conclusion of the attack by an interval of fencing time (temps d’escrime); that is to say the stop-hit must arrive before the attacker has begun the final movement of the attack.
		If, he/she makes a hit by a remise, redoublement or reprise on his/her opponent’s parry, which has been followed by a riposte which is immediate, simple, and executed in one period of fencing time without withdrawing the arm.

	[No title]
		But we are quick to note that the ancient world presumed that males were in "public" all the time, except when in the privacy of their household.
		Hence, the narrative does not always spell out that a public observes provocation and response/challenge and riposte, but an audience is there and does its job of observing the challenge and riposte and awarding victory and honor to one party and defeat and shame to the other.
		It is one thing to give a riposte to the challenges to Jesus' honor ("Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?" 14:60; "Are you the king of the Jews?" 15:2); but quite another to disdain to answer frivolous and false charges.

		Attacks may be simple (executed in one period of fencing time),composed (including one or more feints), prepared (as preceded by a beat, a change of engagement, a pris de fer preparation, etc.), direct (into the same line as the engagement), or indirect (into a different line from that of the engagement).
		A delayed riposte -- when a riposte is not made immediately after the parry and the opponent begins a remise first, the remise of the attack will have priority of action.
		Such an action should be analysed as a remise of the attack, a remise of the riposte, etc. It is possible to make a remise of any type of thrust.

		The style is extremely well-suited to the Riposte, and also effectively uses the Parry Tactic.
