After securing the Six Orbs and hatching Ramia the Everbird, you're poised to challenge Baramos's Lair in Dragon Quest 3 Remake. This dungeon serves as a crucial test of your skills before venturing into the game's underworld. This guide details navigating and conquering Baramos's Lair.

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 an island nestled amongst mountains – Baramos's Lair's location. 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 serves as a central hub. Below is the optimal path to the boss fight, with treasure locations detailed separately.
