Mastering Dragon Quest III: HD-2D Remake: Essential Tips for Beginners

For fans of classic JRPGs, Dragon Quest III: HD-2D Remake is a nostalgic trip back to the series' roots. However, its old-school difficulty demands strategic preparation. Here's how to conquer Baramos:

Navigate the Personality Test Wisely

The initial personality quiz from "She Who Watches Over All" dictates your hero's stat growth. While adjustments are possible with specific accessories, restarting for your preferred personality is simpler. For optimal stat boosts, a female hero offers access to the "Vamp" personality, the game's strongest option.

Customize Your Party for Success

In Aliahan, bypass Patty's pre-set party. On the second floor, the custom party builder allows you to choose classes Patty doesn't offer, allocate stats, and even influence personalities, creating superior party members. Prioritize a Priest for crucial healing magic.

Acquire Essential Early-Game Weapons

Early acquisition of powerful weapons is crucial due to high equipment costs. Locate the Boomerang (Dreamer's Tower, 3rd floor chest) and the Thorn Whip (Aliahan well, requires two Mini Medals from Morgan Minimann). These multi-target weapons are ideal for the Hero and a strength-based character (Warrior or Martial Artist).

Utilize the "Follow Orders" Command

Take control of your party in combat. Switch their behavior to "Follow Orders" in the Tactics menu. This seemingly small detail significantly enhances your tactical options during intense battles.

Stock Up on Chimaera Wings

Early enemies can inflict substantial damage. Before unlocking the Zoom spell (typically around Hero level 8), utilize Chimaera Wings (25 gold) for quick travel to previously visited locations, even within dungeons. This prevents lengthy retreats with injured party members.

Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is available on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
