Dragon Quest III Remake: Conquer Baramos's Lair, Guide Unveiled

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

After securing the Six Orbs and hatching Ramia, the Everbird, your journey to Baramos's Lair begins. This challenging 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 formidable dungeon. Access is granted only after obtaining Ramia. Aim for a party level of at least 20 before tackling this challenge. Valuable items await within.

Reaching Baramos's Lair

Having completed the Maw of the Necrogond and acquired the Silver Orb, Ramia becomes available. Fly from either the Shrine of the Everbird or the Necrogond Shrine to the island north of the Necrogond Shrine, nestled amidst mountains. This is Baramos's Lair. Ramia will deposit you near the entrance.

Navigating Baramos's Lair

Baramos's Lair deviates from typical dungeon structures. Instead of linear progression, you'll traverse indoor and outdoor areas to reach Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Baramos's Lair – Surroundings," serves as a central hub. The following outlines the main path to the boss fight:

Main Path to Baramos:

1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Instead, proceed east to the northeast pool.
2. Turn left at the stairs leading to the pool and continue west to another staircase. Ascend and locate the door to your right.
3. Enter the Eastern Tower, reach the top, and exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof southwest, descend the stairs, and proceed west through the gaps in the northwestern double wall. Use the northwest staircase.
5. The staircase leads to the Central Tower. Use Safe Passage to navigate electrified floor panels to the southwest stairs, descending to B1 Passageway A.
6. In B1 Passageway A, turn east and proceed to the eastern staircase.
7. Enter the South-East Tower, ascend the northeast staircase to the roof, and then head west to another staircase down. Cross the grass northwest and enter the only available door.
8. This leads to the northeast section of the Central Tower. Exit via the single available path.
9. You'll be in B1 Passageway B. Proceed north and ascend the stairs.
10. Enter the Throne Room. Avoid floor panels and exit south.
11. Head east from the Throne Room (northwest corner of the Surroundings map) to the structure on the island in the lake (northeast corner). This is Baramos's Den.
