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 confront Baramos in his lair. 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 attempting this challenge. The lair holds several valuable items, detailed below.

Reaching Baramos's Lair

Following the Maw of the Necrogond and acquiring 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

Unlike typical dungeons, Baramos's Lair involves traversing both indoor and outdoor areas. The objective: reach Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," serves as a central hub. This guide outlines the main path to Baramos, followed by treasure locations.

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. Ascend the stairs to the pool, turn left (west), and climb another set of stairs. Enter the door on your right.
  3. Navigate the Eastern Tower to its 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. In the Central Tower, use "Safe Passage" to cross electrified panels and descend to B1 Passageway A.
  6. In B1 Passageway A, head east to the easternmost stairs.
  7. Ascend the stairs in the South-East Tower, proceed northeast to the roof, then west to another set of stairs leading down. Cross the grass northwest and enter the door.
  8. Exit the small northeastern section of the Central Tower.
  9. Traverse B1 Passageway B north and ascend the stairs.
  10. In the Throne Room, exit south, avoiding floor panels.
  11. From the Surroundings map, locate the northeastern structure (on an island). This is Baramos's Den, the boss arena.
