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's Lair in Dragon Quest 3 Remake. This challenging dungeon serves as the ultimate test before venturing into the underworld. This guide details navigating and conquering Baramos's Lair.
Baramos's Lair houses 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 encounter. The dungeon holds valuable items, detailed in the sections 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 the island north of the Necrogond Shrine, nestled amidst mountains. This is Baramos's Lair. Ramia will transport you near the entrance.
Navigating Baramos's Lair
Baramos's Lair differs from typical dungeons. Instead of linear progression, you'll traverse indoor and outdoor areas to reach Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," acts as a central hub. Below is the main path to the boss fight, with treasure locations detailed separately.
Main Path to Baramos:
- Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main door. Head east, towards the northeast pool.
- Turn left at the stairs leading to the pool, heading west to another stairwell. Ascend and enter the door on the right (Eastern Tower).
- Reach the Eastern Tower's top and exit.
- Cross the castle roof southwest, descend, continue west, and navigate the gaps in the northwest double wall. Use the northwest stairwell.
- This leads to the Central Tower. Use "Safe Passage" to cross electrified floor panels, then descend to B1 Passageway A.
- In B1 Passageway A, turn east and proceed to the easternmost stairs.
- Enter the South-East Tower, heading northeast to the stairs, then up to the roof. Head west, descend, cross the grass northwest, and enter the door.
- This leads to a small section in the Central Tower's northeast corner. Exit.
- In B1 Passageway B, proceed north and ascend the stairs.
- Enter the Throne Room. Exit south, avoiding floor panels.
- Head east from the Throne Room (northwest corner of the Surroundings map) to the northeast structure on the lake island. This is Baramos's Den.
