Notes

• Versus attacks that cannot be blocked (such as Pure Strike, or while an attacker uses Warrior's Cunning), Riposte's damage effect will trigger, but the attack will not be blocked.
• The block effect from this skill takes precedence over all other effects that may cause the attack to be blocked or to miss (including Blindness).

Trivia
