Octopath Traveler II – Winterlands Ruffians Hideout

Octopath Traveler 2 Logo

In Octopath Traveler II, the Ruffian’s Hideout is an area you’ll come to for the side story Ruffians’ Redoubt. It can be reached from the Eastern Cape Cold Snows. To start, head north from the savepoint over a bridge then follow the path east. When you come to a dock (before the road curves) use it to sail east to reach the Ruffian’s Hideout with a Danger Level of 14. Alternatively, you can head east from the savepoint. This will bring you to the hideout, but it will be guarded by a Ruffian. You could then switch to night and use Throne to knock him out. This guide will cover the enemies and chests you can expect to find in the area.
