Ruff Rider is a recurring skill in the Dragon Quest series.
Appearances[]
Dragon Quest X[]
Making its debut, it is learned by investing 150 skill points into the Ranger's Ruggedness skill tree and attacks the enemy 4 times in a row with a summoned white wolf that is unaffected by Dazzle and ignores the enemy's defence. It costs 6 MP to use, and can be enhanced from the latter half of Version 3 onwards, dealing up to 1200 damage and with a reduced CT of 60 seconds.
Dragon Quest Heroes II: Twins Kings and Ending of the Prophecy[]
Learned by Ruff, he straddles his wolf stead and attacks the enemy constantly, making it perfect for whittling down strong enemies and bosses' HP. It costs 7 MP to use.
Dragon Quest Tact[]
Appearing as Ruff's Coup de Grâce, it can only attack an enemy one time, though it can be used twice. It costs 57 MP to use, and is usable after 2 turns have passed.
