Conquering Baramos's Lair in Dragon Quest 3 Remake: A Comprehensive Guide

After securing the Six Orbs and hatching Ramia, the Everbird, you're ready to challenge Baramos's Lair. This formidable dungeon serves as the ultimate test before venturing into the underworld. This guide details navigating and conquering Baramos's Lair in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake.

Baramos, the primary antagonist of the game's first half, resides within this dungeon. Access is granted only after obtaining Ramia. Aim for a party level of at least 20 before attempting this challenge. The lair holds several valuable items, detailed below.

Reaching Baramos's Lair

Following the Maw of the Necrogond and acquisition of the Silver Orb, Ramia becomes available. Fly from either the Shrine of the Everbird or the Necrogond Shrine to a mountainous island north of the Necrogond Shrine. This island houses Baramos's Lair. Ramia will deposit you near the entrance.

Navigating Baramos's Lair

Unlike typical dungeons, Baramos's Lair involves traversing both indoor and outdoor areas. The objective: reach Baramos.

The main outdoor area, "Baramos's Lair – Surroundings," acts as a central hub. Here's the path to the boss:

1. From the overworld entrance, bypass the main door. Instead, circumnavigate the eastern side of the castle to the northeast pool.
2. Ascend the stairs to the pool, turn left, and proceed west to another staircase. Climb and locate a door to your right.
3. Enter the Eastern Tower, reach the top, and exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof southwest, descend stairs, continue west, and pass through the gaps in the northwest double wall. Use the northwest staircase.
5. The stairs lead to the Central Tower. Navigate to the southwest stairs, utilizing "Safe Passage" to cross electrified panels. Descend to "B1 Passageway A."
6. In "B1 Passageway A," proceed east to the far eastern stairs.
7. Enter the South-East Tower, head northeast to the stairs, ascend to the roof, then head west and descend again. Cross the grass northwest and enter the available door.
8. This leads to the northeast section of the Central Tower. Exit to return to the "Surroundings" map.
9. From the Central Tower, proceed north to "B1 Passageway B," traverse north, and ascend the stairs.
10. Enter the Throne Room, exit south, avoiding floor panels, and reach the "Surroundings" map again.
11. The Throne Room is in the northwest corner. Head east to the northeast island structure – Baramos's Den, the boss arena.
