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? -------------------- _ _ _____________________________ _ _ Power to (the) Mas(ses) Posts: 102 | Registered: Friday, April 14 2006 07:00 |

No. You can't parry a riposte. Sorry. :( -------------------- Scenarios need reviews! Please rate these scenarios at the CSR after playing them!

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. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

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.

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. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

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. It's stuffy in there. And it smells funny. - The Xian Skull Posts: 1509 | Registered: Tuesday, January 10 2006 08:00 |

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 :( -------------------- Moral outrage is the recourse of those who have no argument. - Voltaire Posts: 4 | Registered: Wednesday, October 18 2006 07:00 |
