Talk:Riposte

When I equip both Reckoning and Riposte Trigger Skill Gems, why don't they both always trigger when I block? In the description of the skill gem there is the difference between "block" and "block with your shield", but when do I "block" and when do I "block with my shield"? Isn't there just a global block chance which applies?

Would be grateful for further explanation of the game mechanics concerning this aspect :-)
