New Dragon Quest Title: Walkthrough to Conquer Zoma's Fortress
Conquer Zoma's Citadel in Dragon Quest 3 Remake: A Comprehensive Guide
This guide provides a complete walkthrough of Zoma's Citadel in Dragon Quest 3 Remake, the game's challenging final dungeon. We'll cover reaching the citadel, navigating each floor, defeating the bosses, and identifying all treasure.
Reaching Zoma's Citadel
After defeating Baramos, you'll enter the darkened world of Alefgard. To reach Zoma's Citadel, you need the Rainbow Drop, created by combining:
- Sunstone: Found in Tantegel Castle.
- Staff of Rain: Found in the Shrine of the Spirit.
- Sacred Amulet: Received from Rubiss after rescuing her in the Tower of Rubiss (requires the Faerie Flute).
Combine these items to create the Rainbow Bridge leading to the citadel.

This level contains a single chest.

Defeating the Bosses
You'll face the King Hydra, Soul of Baramos, Bones of Baramos, and finally, Zoma. Use items between fights.
- King Hydra: Vulnerable to Kazap. Aggressive tactics are effective.
- Soul of Baramos: Weak to Zap.
- Bones of Baramos: Similar weaknesses to the Soul of Baramos. Higher damage output requires careful health management.
- Zoma: Initially protected by a magic barrier. Use the Sphere of Light to remove it, then exploit its weakness to Zap. Strategic play and healing are crucial.
