Is the best way to master flurry still flurrying with only one sword?

- Depends on what you are losing faster, moves or health. If you are sleeping to recover moves, sword+shied is the best way to spam flurry. If you are sleeping to recover health, two swords might be more defensive (and hence, better)

Is the best way to master riposte by having a pair of PCs with wimpy weapons attacking you?

- Same as any other defense fight stuff with lots of attacks, little damage. I'd target this for skill learn - couple that with the quests that give skill gains and you can get it into the 90s pretty easy nowadays

Jab useless for giants? Should they mostly just stick to cross, double thrust, and flurry?

- Works fine on giants, I don't think it's strength or dex dependant at all. Personally I think cross is more useless than jab. Any time three rounds of not being able to enter a command is going to be dangerous, jab is useful. For example fighting 1 v 3 you might be able to win, but not if you get disarmed/write-broke immediately after hitting dt. Using jab means you don't have to sit there watching your health go to zero waiting for your flee to go through.
