			The Pyramid is now guarded by the [[Ripper of the Rift]] and a [[Kylla]] on the order os [[Baramos]] to prevent the Hero from optaining the magic key. There is an [[List of recruitable monsters in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake\|imp disguised as a little girl]] on the third floor who will give false hints to solving the Pyramid's puzzles.

			The curse of the golden claws now triggers a fight every few steps instead of continuously, party members can still use [[List of skills in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake\|skills in battle]] despite magic being voided, and the [[artificial intelligence]] is smart enough to avoid wasting turns trying to cast spells, reducing the difficulty considerably. On the other hand the claws will be returned to their resting place should the party fall in battle, forcing the player to brave the tomb all over again.
