Ruffs: Best Build (Gadgets, Stars, Gears)

Ruffs is a versatile support brawler whose kit can turn the tide of a match when used correctly. This compact guide draws from 55 community-created builds to present the most effective gadgets, star powers, and gears for your Ruff’s setup – whether you’re climbing ranks or refining your strategy for competitive play.

Gadgets

You have two gadget choices. Take Cover is the preferred option, used 62% of the time. It deploys three sandbags that each possess 35% of Ruffs’ maximum health, giving you instant cover in open areas. Air Support calls a barrage around the nearest opponent, dealing 1,200 damage per hit – useful for pressuring enemies but less consistent than the defensive sandbags.

Star Powers

Air Superiority dominates with a 67% pick rate. It adds a bomb to your Supply Drop that deals 120% extra damage and can destroy walls, turning your super into a zoning or finishing tool. Field Promotion increases nearby friendly brawlers’ maximum health by 56 per second while they stay in range – a solid choice if you prefer pure support, but the offensive upside of Air Superiority is hard to ignore.

Gears

Ruffs has six Super Rare Gears, but two rise above the rest. Shield, selected 37% of the time, grants a consumable 900‑HP shield that regenerates after 10 seconds when you’re at full health. It shines in game modes where you can disengage to heal – like Bounty or Gem Grab. Damage follows at 30% and excels in clutch duels when your health is low, helping you win close-range fights.

Optimal Build Summary

Combine Take Cover with Air Superiority, then equip Shield as your primary gear and
lootbar
