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

After securing the Six Orbs and hatching Ramia the Everbird, you're poised to challenge Baramos's Lair in Dragon Quest 3 Remake. This formidable dungeon serves as the ultimate test before venturing into the underworld. This guide details navigating and conquering Baramos's Lair.

Baramos's Lair is the stronghold of the Archfiend Baramos, the primary antagonist in the game's first half. Access is granted only after obtaining Ramia. Aim for a party level of at least 20 before attempting this challenge. The dungeon holds 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 Necrogond Shrine to the island north of Necrogond, 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, "Surroundings," serves as a central hub. The following outlines the optimal path to the boss fight:

Main Path to Baramos:

1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Head east, towards the northeastern pool.
2. Ascend the stairs near the pool, turn west, and climb another set of stairs. Enter the door on your right.
3. Navigate the Eastern Tower to its rooftop exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof southwest, descend stairs, and pass through the gaps in the northwest wall. Use the northwest stairs.
5. In the Central Tower, use "Safe Passage" to cross electrified floor panels and descend southwest to B1 Passageway A.
6. In B1 Passageway A, head east to the far eastern stairs.
7. In the South-East Tower, ascend the stairs northeast, then head west to the next stairwell down. Cross the grass northwest and enter the door.
8. Exit the Central Tower (again) into B1 Passageway B. Proceed north and ascend the stairs.
9. In the Throne Room, avoid floor panels and exit south.
10. From the "Surroundings" area, locate Baramos's Den (northeastern island structure) to initiate the boss fight.
