Conquer 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 in his formidable lair. This dungeon serves as a crucial test before venturing into the game's 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 challenging dungeon. Access is granted only after obtaining Ramia. Aim for a party level of at least 20 before attempting this encounter. The lair holds several valuable items, detailed in the following sections.

Reaching Baramos's Lair

Following the Maw of the Necrogond and acquiring the Silver Orb unlocks Ramia. Fly from either the Shrine of the Everbird or the Necrogond Shrine to Baramos's Lair.

North of the Necrogond Shrine lies an island nestled amongst mountains – Baramos's Lair. Ramia will transport you near the entrance. Proceed north to enter.

Navigating Baramos's Lair

Unlike typical dungeons, Baramos's Lair involves traversing 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, with treasure locations detailed separately.

Main Path to Baramos:

1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Instead, circumnavigate the castle's eastern side towards the northeastern pool.
2. At the stairs leading to the pool, turn left (west) to another stair set. Ascend and locate the door on your right.
3. Enter the Eastern Tower, ascend to the top, and exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof southwest, descend, continue west, and pass through the gaps in the northwestern double wall. Use the northwestern stairs.
5. The stairs lead to the Central Tower. Navigate to the southwestern stairs, using "Safe Passage" to cross electrified panels. Descend to B1 Passageway A.
6. In B1 Passageway A, turn east and proceed to the easternmost 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 door leads to the northeastern section of the Central Tower. Exit via the single path.
9. You'll now be in B1 Passageway B. Head north and ascend the stairs.
10. Enter the Throne Room. Proceed south to the exit, avoiding floor panels.
11. You're back in the Surroundings area. The Throne Room is in the northwest. Head east to the northeastern structure (on an island) – Baramos's Den, the boss arena.
