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

After securing the Six Orbs and hatching Ramia, the Everbird, your journey culminates in Baramos's Lair. This challenging dungeon serves as a crucial test before venturing into the underworld. This guide details navigating and conquering Baramos's Lair in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake.

Baramos's Lair houses the Archfiend Baramos, the primary antagonist of the game's first half. Access is granted only after obtaining Ramia. Aim for a party level of at least 20 before tackling this challenge. The lair contains 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 an island north of the Necrogond Shrine, nestled amidst mountains. This island 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: reaching Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," serves as a central hub. Below is the main path to the boss; treasure locations are detailed separately.

Main Path to Baramos:

  1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Instead, circumnavigate the castle's east side towards the northeastern pool.
  2. Ascend the stairs to the pool, then turn left (west) to another stairwell. Proceed west and enter the door on your right.
  3. You're now in the Eastern Tower. Ascend to the roof.
  4. Traverse the roof southwest, descend, continue west, and pass through gaps in the northwestern double wall. Use the northwestern stairwell.
  5. You're in the Central Tower. Use "Safe Passage" to navigate electrified floor panels, then descend to "B1 Passageway A."
  6. In B1 Passageway A, proceed east to the easternmost stairs.
  7. You enter the South-East Tower. Ascend to the roof, then head west and descend again. Cross the grass northwest and enter the door.
  8. This leads to a small section in the Central Tower's northeast corner. Exit.
  9. You're in B1 Passageway B. Proceed north and ascend the stairs.
  10. Enter the Throne Room. Avoid floor panels and exit south.
  11. You're back in the "Surroundings." Head east from the Throne Room (northwest corner) to the northeast structure (on the island in the lake). This is Baramos's Den.
