Having experienced your share of combat, you have noticed and learned to take advantage of small openings after an opponent's mistake. As a reaction, if an enemy within your melee range misses a melee attack against you by 2 or more you can choose to Retaliate; making a melee attack roll against the target.
If your attack is higher than the target's AC, deal damage as normal; if your attack is lower than their AC, but higher than their original attack against you, your Retaliation results in a stalemate; if your attack is lower than their attack, regardless of their AC, you take half the damage you would have dealt.
