Riposte is a passive ability available to all heroes.

(Passive) Hero will counter-attack after a successful melee Block or Dodge.

(Passive) Each time Hero is hit, they gain +20 Dodge. Resets after a successful Dodge or Block.

Valuable on a front-line warrior who stacks Block & Dodge with Wildergard, rather than armor with Knightmail. However, be wary of getting flanked.

Can combine well with Untouchable, since Riposte kills will refresh the Untouchable effect. However, any ranged attack will break the Riposte-Untouchable chain.

Hunters that build for high dodge and block can get a lot of value out of Riposte and Archery.
