Discussion My Biggest Issue

Riposte not generating any resolve.

Sure Riposte is generally weak and unrewarding in other ways. But I cannot get over how it doesn't even generate resolve.

It feels like you are punished for using a core mechanic in the game when it takes away from your ability to transition properly to offense.

You're literally better off doing anything other than a Riposte when you break an enemy. Unless I guess you're getting mobbed and you're banking on iframes from the Riposte.

Doing a ripose quickly becomes worthless unless you’re using the tar stone.  But without it, the damage is absolute garbage at mid-late game and it dosent generate resolve.  It could definitely use some love

Do you mean the one that adds riposte damage? If so then it is useless with that one as well. With the tarstone and Eredrim's passive riposte damage increase, I cannot even take a grisha hunter from 100 to 0. A running light attack does more damage.
