Anyone noticed that the skilldescription of Riposte isn't correct?
For 8 seconds, while you have a sword equiped, you "block" the next attack against you and your attacker takes XX damage.
The description suggests that it would be triggered on all attacks against you but it only works when you're attacked in melee.
Riposte, wrong skilldescription

Never really read it like this:
For 8 seconds, while you have a sword equiped, you "block" the next attack against you and your attacker takes XX damage.
Always read the description like this:
For 8 seconds, while you have a sword equiped, you "block" the next melee attack against you and your attacker takes XX damage.
Dont know why
But anyways, good point

anyway i agree.
i sent ANet support a email regarding this, it was quite difficult getting past the automated responses to explain the real problem, they sent it to quality control and i would not get a reply back.

I think the whole melee thing is sorta assumed because you need a sword to use it.

Try using the /bug report in game as well to tell them about the problem. Thats what I would do.
Rancour
One could also complain that it doesn't block ALL melee attacks in the 8 second time frame, but simply ends after the first block. The opposite would be sorta over-powered, but it's pretty missleading anyway.

For the next 8 seconds, the next attack against you is blocked... etc.
