One option I've considered is to get rid of Riposte, and make Deceptive Parry available (under the name Riposte), and disallow anyone buying it up. Then it's basically a fixed-penalty combat option that fills the same niche. Haven't tried it yet though.

Or you could treat it like Targeted Attack or other techniques that can be bought up but max out at Skill-x, or in this case Parry-x (perhaps Parry-2?).
