Ring of Riposte (3.5e Equipment)

Ring of Riposte
''This ring is embossed with an image of a lion. Like the lion you must be pretty brave to attack while the opponent is about to strike you down.''

While wearing the ring of riposte, if you attack a creature who is in the midst of attacking you (such as if the creature provokes an attack of opportunity, or certain martial counters), you deal a mini-crit with your weapon. The weapon must either be a piercing weapon or finesseable. The weapon deals +50% of its normal damage. If the attack is a critical hit, add +50% after the critical multiplier.

Creatures immune to critical hits are immune to the mini-crit of this ring.

Prerequisites: Forge Ring, haste.

Cost to Create: 1500 gp, 120 EXP, 3 days.
