How it works

Its aura procs every time its trigger condition is met. It can proc at most once every 1 sec.

Riposte is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 43. Its base value is 29250.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 28. Its base value is 100.

What it does

Riposte is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 5 yards and effects that last 5 sec. When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70631. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
