Baramos's Lair Walkthrough

Baramos's Lair differs from typical dungeons. Instead of a linear progression, it involves navigating indoor and outdoor areas to reach Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," serves as a central hub. The following outlines the optimal path to the boss:

Main Path to Baramos:

1. Upon entering from the overworld, bypass the main entrance. Instead, circumnavigate the castle's east side towards the northeast pool.
2. Ascend the stairs leading to the pool, then turn left (west) to another stairwell. Ascend and locate a door to your right; enter.
3. You're now in the Eastern Tower. Proceed to the top and exit.
4. Traverse the castle roof (visible on the Surroundings map) southwestward. Descend the stairs to the lower level, continue west, and pass through the gaps in the northwest double wall. Use the northwest stairwell.
5. The stairs lead to the Central Tower. Navigate to the southwest stairs, utilizing "Safe Passage" to cross electrified floor panels. Descend to B1 Passageway A.
6. In B1 Passageway A, turn east and proceed to the easternmost stairs.
7. Enter the South-East Tower. Head northeast to the stairs, ascend to the roof, then head west a short distance before descending again. Cross the grass northwest and enter the only available door.
8. This leads to a small section in the northeast corner of the Central Tower. Exit via the sole available path.
9. You're now in B1 Passageway B. Proceed north and ascend the stairs.
10. Enter the Throne Room. Exit along the southern edge, avoiding floor panels.
11. Back in the Surroundings area, locate the northeast structure on the lake island. This is Baramos's Den, where the boss awaits.
