Baramos's Lair Conquered: Guide to Dragon Quest 3 Remake Dungeon

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 formidable 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 of 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, you unlock the Everbird. 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 differs from typical dungeons. Instead of linear progression, you'll traverse indoor and outdoor areas to reach Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," serves as a central hub. This guide outlines the main path to the boss, with treasure locations detailed separately.

Main Path to Baramos:

1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Head east, towards the northeast pool.
2. Turn left at the stairs leading to the pool, proceed west to another stair set. Ascend and enter the door on the right (Eastern Tower).
3. Reach the Eastern Tower's top and exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof southwest, descend, continue west, and pass through the gaps in the northwest double wall. Use the northwest stairs.
5. This leads to the Central Tower. Use Safe Passage to cross electrified floor panels, then descend to B1 Passageway A.
6. In B1 Passageway A, turn east and proceed to the eastern 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 door.
8. This leads to a small section in the northeast corner of the Central Tower. Exit.
9. You're now in B1 Passageway B. Proceed north and ascend the stairs.
10. Enter the Throne Room. Exit south, avoiding floor panels.
11. You're back in "Surroundings." Head east to the northeast island structure (Baramos's Den) for the boss fight.
