Disco Elysium Ruby Location: Where To Find Ruby

Locating the elusive Ruby in Disco Elysium is a monumental task, requiring the player to navigate one of the hardest skill checks in the game.
Disco Elysium Ruby Location: Where To Find Ruby

Disco Elysium will have you traipsing around Martinaise in search of some colorful characters, one of which includes the elusive Ruby. Finding Ruby can take some serious legwork, requiring you to deal with both the Hardie Boys and Klaasje before even getting a clue as to where she might be found.

In this guide, we’ll go over why locating Ruby is so important and the various tasks required to gain direct access to her location.

Why Do You Need To Find Ruby?

Ruby’s importance is due to her position as the eighth key member of the Hardie Boys, with deep ties to the Union, and her managing large-scale drug traffic through Martinaise also.

Klaasje will offer your first bit of information about Ruby’s existence, explaining - after some serious prodding and a difficult Drama skill check - that Ruby was the key orchestrator behind the murder’s cover-up. You’ll then need to follow up with the leader of the Hardie Boys and “Make Titus give up Ruby’s location”, which will require an Impossible Logic check to convince him of Ruby’s potential motive.

Once convinced, Titus will relent and reveal that Ruby had disappeared as soon as she heard people were looking into her, suggesting she should be somewhere out west of Martinaise. You’ll be prompted with a new task to “Ask about Ruby in the village” here.

How To Find Ruby In Disco Elysium

From speaking to the villagers, you’ll discern Ruby’s location to be somewhere in Land’s End, to the northwest of the Fishing Village.

She’s actually hiding in the Feld Building’s basement, where outside, you might remember a boy and his father discussing the large mural on the building’s side and the Feld company’s history. 

If not, you can find the Feld Building easily by moving directly west from the door of the Church and keeping your camera zoomed out, the mural is quite imposing. Entering the building to find Ruby is the true challenge, which will require a couple of impossible Shivers checks.

How To Pass The Feld Building Mural Shivers Check

Gaining access to the Feld Building will test your natural instincts to their very limits with not one, but two Shivers checks to complete, both at the impossible level. Don’t worry too much, as you can make these skill checks much easier to complete by simply engaging with the side quests mostly around the Fishing Village and Church areas.

To lower the difficulty of the Shivers checks and gain access to the Feld Building, try completing the following tasks:

  • Find your gun.

  • Find Idiot Doom Spirals jacket.

  • Take Lilienne from the village out on a date.

  • Complete the Cryptozoologist quest line via Lena and Morell: “Find Morell the Cryptozoologist”, “Inspect the traps” and “Find the Insulindian Phasmid”.

  • Help the ravers start a nightclub.

  • Investigate the dead body on the boardwalk.

  • Attempt to open the weapons bunker in Land’s End. (You don’t need to succeed to gain the Shivers bonus, just make an attempt.)

  • Reconstruct the murder.

After passing the two Shivers checks, two separate entrances will become available. You can choose to climb the ladder beside the mural to make your way in from the rooftop, or you can get in from the pipe beneath the boardwalk.

Using the ladder will require a Savoir Faire check, and you’ll need to explore solo until you can let Kim in at the bottom. Entering via the pipe will ask for a Physical Instrument check of you, but both you and Kim will be able to head in. 

Once you’re inside, a short snoop in the basement will see you find Ruby and also land you in some immediate hot water with her.
