Riposte doesn't need nerfed. It just needs taken away from medium armor dps.

Yes, I am incredibly biased.

Ya it's OP and certain classes get way too much value out of it, but its ultimately a 1v1, 1vX tool so I don't think anythings gonna happen to it.

Pretty much this, form group, find the solo players, kill them, corpse jump and cowpie basically.
rorhammer philosophy :lol:

Love all the idiots posting on here like it was the fault of the WE in trying to attack a slayer. Clearly it was described as a test.

There are so many other skills with internal cooldowns that do way less damage than riposte and have way less potential for abuse, yet this stays in game because reasons?

Some tactics are better than others, that's not new.
Also, what keeps that WE to also slot Riposte and get high parry too?
Nothing.

Would think that as a principle tactics which grant abilities, resource damage driven from attacks on them should have internal cooldown.
Much like the moral tactic in the list for BO which does have an internal CD

rampage in this case
but the topic is not about the duel of WE and Slayer, but about the possibility of killing ONLY one tactic even with a significant difference in equip

yea everyone can get riposte and stack parry but only slayer can bypass ur riposte and parry
and they get high ws therefore higher parry since most slayer stack ws talis and 120 ws tactic combine all these thats very powerful

Riposte damage is increased by slayer/choppa mechanics. That's where the difference is on this. If you watch the vid the slayer was in deep yellow when the fight started.

Witch elf could spec and slot Sharpened Edge and do unlockable damage every time an attack is blocked/parried, but that cant happen more than once every 2 seconds.... the "anti- riposte" that is nowhere near effective and costs spec points vs. Baseline tactic.
