Mastering Dragon Quest III: HD-2D Remake: Essential Early-Game Strategies

For fans of classic JRPGs, Dragon Quest III: HD-2D Remake is a nostalgic trip, faithfully recreating the charm of the original. However, its old-school difficulty demands strategic preparation. This guide offers key tips to conquer Baramos.

Navigate the Personality Test Wisely

The initial personality quiz from "She Who Watches Over All" significantly impacts your Hero's stat growth. While adjustments are possible with specific accessories, restarting for your preferred personality is simpler. For optimal stat boosts, consider selecting the "Vamp" personality, exclusive to female Heroes.

Customize Your Party for Success

In Aliahan, bypass Patty's pre-set party. On the second floor, create a custom team, accessing classes Patty omits and fine-tuning stats and personalities for superior performance. Crucially, always include a Priest for essential healing magic.

Acquire Powerful Early-Game Weapons

Early access to strong weapons is crucial due to equipment costs. Prioritize obtaining the Boomerang (Dreamer's Tower, 3rd floor chest) and the Thorn Whip (Aliahan well, requires two Mini Medals). These multi-target weapons are ideal for the Hero and a strength-based party member. Four Mini Medals are readily available in the initial game area.

Take Direct Control of Your Party

Utilize the in-combat Tactics menu to switch your party's AI behavior to "Follow Orders." This grants you direct control, a significant advantage in intense battles.

Stock Up on Chimaera Wings

Early enemies can inflict devastating damage. Before unlocking the Zoom spell (typically around Hero level 8), keep Chimaera Wings (25 gold each) readily available for quick travel between 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.
