Baramos's Lair Walkthrough

Baramos's Lair differs from typical dungeons; it's a network of indoor and outdoor areas. The objective is reaching Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," is the central hub. This guide outlines the main path to the boss fight, with treasure locations detailed separately.

Main Path to Baramos:

1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Instead, circumnavigate the castle's eastern side towards the northeast pool.
2. At the stairs leading to the pool, turn left (west) to another stair set. Ascend and enter the door to your right.
3. You're now in the Eastern Tower. Ascend to the roof exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof southwest, descend the stairs, continue west, and pass through the gaps in the northwest double wall. Use the northwest stairs.
5. You're in the Central Tower. Use the southwest stairs, employing "Safe Passage" to cross electrified panels, descending 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 to the western section. Cross the grass northwest and enter the only door.
8. This leads to a small area in the northeast Central Tower. Exit.
9. You're in B1 Passageway B. Proceed north to the stairs.
10. Enter the Throne Room. Exit south, avoiding floor panels.
11. Back in "Surroundings," head east to the northeast island structure – Baramos's Den, the boss arena.
