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 completing 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 dungeon 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 Necrogond Shrine. Baramos's Lair is situated on an island north of the Necrogond Shrine, surrounded by mountains. Ramia will transport you directly to the dungeon entrance.
