Dragon Quest 3 Remake: Conquering Zoma's Citadel – A Complete Guide

This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough of Zoma's Citadel in Dragon Quest 3 Remake, the game's ultimate challenge. We'll cover reaching the citadel, navigating each floor, defeating the bosses, and identifying all treasure locations.

Reaching Zoma's Citadel

After defeating Baramos, you'll enter a perpetually dark Alefgard. To reach Zoma's Citadel, you must obtain the Rainbow Drop:

  • Sunstone: Found in Tantegel Castle.
  • Staff of Rain: Located 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 Drop, summoning the Rainbow Bridge to Zoma's Citadel.

Zoma's Citadel Walkthrough

1F:

Navigate the east or west side of the chamber to reach the throne. Activating the throne reveals a hidden passage. Expect a challenging encounter with Living Statues in the central chamber.

  • Treasure 1 (Buried): Mini Medal (behind the throne).
  • Treasure 2 (Buried): Seed of Magic (near the electrified panel).

B1:

B1 is straightforward, leading to B2 unless you take alternative stairs on 1F, leading to an isolated chamber.

  • Treasure 1 (Chest): Hapless Helm

B2:

This floor features directional tiles. Mastering these is crucial. Consider practicing on the similar tiles in the Tower of Rubiss (3rd floor, northwest corner). The key is understanding the color-coded directional indicators.

  • Treasure 1 (Chest): Scourge Whip
  • Treasure 2 (Chest): 4,989 Gold Coins

B3:

The main path circles the chamber. A detour to the southwest reveals Sky, a friendly Soaring Scourger. Falling through holes on B2 leads to an isolated chamber with a Liquid Metal Slime.

  • Treasure 1 (Chest): Dragon Dojo Duds
  • Treasure 2 (Chest): Double-Edged Sword
  • Treasure 3 (Chest): Bastard Sword (Isolated Chamber)

B4:

The final floor before Zoma. Don't miss the cutscene upon entry.

  • Treasure 1-6 (Chests): Shimmering Dress, Prayer Ring, Sage's Stone, Yggdrasil Leaf, Dieamend, Mini Medal

Defeating Zoma and his Predecessors

Before facing Zoma, you'll battle the King Hydra, Soul of Baramos, and Bones of Baramos. Utilize items between fights.

  • King Hydra: Aggressive tactics are effective. Kazap spell inflicts significant damage.
  • Soul of Baramos: Weak to Zap attacks.
  • Bones of Baramos: Similar weaknesses to the Soul of Baramos. Kazap and Monster Wrangler combos are highly effective.

Zoma: A strategic fight. Conserve MP initially. Use the Sphere of Light to remove Zoma's magic barrier, making them vulnerable to Zap attacks (Kazap). Prioritize HP and revival. Buffs and debuffs can be advantageous.

Monster List

Monster Name Weakness
Dragon Zombie None
Franticore None
Great Troll Zap
Green Dragon None
Hocus-Poker None
Hydra None
Infernal Serpent None
One-Man Army Zap
Soaring Scourger Zap
Troobloovoodoo Zap
