Guide to Part 44 of Dragon Quest IV: Learn how to defeat the boss Aamon and navigate Death Castle, including item locations like the Sage's Stone and Mini Medal #45.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the entrance of the fourth shrine, head up the stairs. On the next floor, go east through a door and up new stairs to the northeast. To the south, find a treasure chest containing the [ZOMBIE MAIL], which is cursed.
  2. 2
    Head one floor downstairs from the chest and go up the stairs southwest of the previous door. Follow the path to the boss chamber.
  3. 3
    BOSS SHOWDOWN: Aamon
    • Party: Hero, Ragnar, Meena, Alena
  4. 4
    Level: 33
  5. 5
    Difficulty: Medium
  6. 6
    Strategy: Aamon has three ghoul helpers. Use Meena's "Kaswoosh" to deal with them and have her heal the party as needed. The Hero should USE the Zenithian Sword as an item to remove Aamon's protective spell. If he casts it again, remove it. Normal melee attacks are recommended for high damage. If using spells, ensure Aamon's protective spell is removed first.
  7. 7
    After defeating Aamon, all four barriers are removed, granting access to the last proper dungeon, Death Castle, located north of the angel shrine. Save and heal before proceeding.
  8. 8
    Enter Death Castle and walk north past the statues. In the next room, avoid the humanoid statues and electrified floor. Use Maya's "Safe Passage" to avoid damage from the electrified ground. Head northeast.
  9. 9
    Find stairs in the southeastern end of the area and head upstairs.
  10. 10
    On the next floor, go south to find a skeleton. Enter the door just north of it.
  11. 11
    Continue through the corridor until you find stairs next to a flame, leading downwards. Use Maya's "Safe Passage" to avoid poison damage in the basement.
  12. 12
    In the southwestern part of the poisoned basement, find a chest containing [MINI MEDAL #45].
  13. 13
    Go back upstairs to the flame. East of the flame, find new stairs and follow them up.
  14. 14
    Walk south past statues and out the door. On the balcony, enter the door on your left. Avoid activating the elevator for now and continue north up another stairway.
  15. 15
    In the room with many statues, push a statue in the northern part of the room to uncover a passage. Head inside to find a secret path leading to a balcony where the [SAGE'S STONE] can be found.
  16. 16
    Return to the room where you pushed the statue. Exit through the door in the eastern end of the room.
  17. 17
    Keep walking east to find two chests containing an [YGGDRASIL LEAF] and the [LIGHTNING STAFF].
  18. 18
    Head back to the elevator and activate it to go down to where the flame was.
  19. 19
    Once the elevator stops, head up the stairs at the end of the corridor. On the next floor, ignore the corpse and walk north into another elevator.
  20. 20
    Activate the second elevator to go down another floor. Step out and head up the stairs just northwest.
