Baramos's Lair Walkthrough

Baramos's Lair deviates from typical dungeon structures. Instead of linear progression, you'll traverse indoor and outdoor areas to reach Baramos. The main outdoor area, "Surroundings," serves as a central hub. The following outlines the main path to the boss fight:

4. Traverse the castle roof southwestward, descend the stairs, and pass through the gaps in the northwestern double wall. Use the northwestern staircase.
