Garrulous Glaahk SevenMass Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Just a small thing I just thought of, I wonder; Is it possible to parry a riposite? I mean, you attack a chitrach, the critter riposites your attack, and you parry that ripostie. The next question of course being (though not useful) is it possible to ripostie a ripostie?

Understated Ur-Drakon Nioca Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 No. You can't parry a riposte. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I don't think it's possible to riposte a riposte either... and anyway, the damage done by a riposte is so pitiful that it's basically a wash either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Nioca Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Unless, of course, you have a hasted, blessed uber-warrior who strikes an enemy three times, only to have it riposte all three times. It adds up suprisingly fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Against enemies that likely to parry and riposte, namely chitrachs, your über-warriors should be packing bows anyway. —Alorael, who wonders if early testing of Riposte showed that endless riposte loops are no fun at all.

Easygoing Eyebeast Dintiradan Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 That would be a great 'bot idea... anytime someone responds negatively to one of my posts, I could get a 'bot to flame 'em. -------------------- Don't put me in your pack.

Tenderfoot Thahd Sir Chauncy Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Or you could feel a bit silly that after 7000 posts and a karma score coming out of your ears, you miss with that 1% guaranteed fail chance that seems to follow us all around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
