Prerequisites: parry

riposte (r-pst) 1) A quick thrust given after parrying an opponent's lunge in fencing. 2) A retaliatory action, maneuver, or retort.

After a successful parry, a master of riposte will automatically attempt a counter attack. Although other classes can learn this later, it will work less well for them based on how far removed they are from warriors. IE- fairly well for rangers, worse for clerics and god-awful for monks who aren't used to weapon-based skills.
