Ruffians
Ruffians are Professor Pester's diminuitive minions. There are four unique Ruffian designs in total, each appearing at a higher level than the last.
Behavior
Ruffians have many methods of wreaking havoc in the garden, including breaking objects, coughing up Sour Candy, starting fights with piñatas, and filling in ponds.
A Ruffian can be dismissed by bribing them with Chocolate Coins. The Captain's Cutlass object prevents Ruffians from spawning altogether.
Individual Ruffians
While all Ruffians have exactly the same gameplay, there are four distinct designs that can appear. Each will appear at a higher level than the last, listed below.
| Ruffian | Appears at | Journal Entry |
|---|---|---|
| Ruffian 1 | Level 15 | |
| Ruffian 2 | Level 20 | |
| Ruffian 3 | Level 25 | |
| Ruffian 4 | Level 30 |
Trivia
- Despite having four unique designs, multiple of the same Ruffian can appear in the garden at once.
- Ruffians cannot walk through ponds. If a pond is in a Ruffian's way, they will cough up dirt, filling in the pond.
