Reward from Blown Away.

My hulking, plate-armored male orc requires a pretty pretty b'loon.

Comment by Keelerak

The balloon despawns when you mount, it won't follow you around =/

The kid gets lifted by the balloons into the air when you turn in the quest :o

Comment by FeyGyrl

for those looking for Jaga, the cute little orc kid who gives you the quest.....

49/48 in Valley of Wisdom, by the little bridge - he's standing there, with his blue dragonhawk hatchling, Spooks

I found my five all on the "ground floor", so to speek - they look just like the pet reward balloon, floating in a stationary sort of way - based on the other posts in the quest comment chain for "Blown Away", I think it's probably safe to say you'd find them in just about any part of Org, proper, since we're all reporting different spots within the city walls

The item doesn't state it will be converted when faction changing, like the Argent Gruntling. Please confirm if this is the case.

If the item isn't converted, make sure to not grow too attached to it. Blizzard can and probably would fix it.

You know which English version doesn't suck?

This one...

I wonder, do two of these appear when you pop an Alliance Balloon?

Comment by 867351

Why do I have the feeling this might be related to the Balloon Boy fiasco in the news awhile back. He mentions his father who in the story was beind the whole thing.

Comment by zombiesue

On one side of the balloon, there are stitches. I can only assume this was constructed from dyed human skin.

lol, angry alliance downrate.

Comment by Schadenfreude

This is going to be my main pet in PokéWoW, assuming the pet battle system makes it to the live version of Mists.

Comment by Midgetpower

Very disappointed that it doesn't work with my Fetch Ball. Balloons make bad pets.

I wonder what abilities this will have in the vanity pet battle minigame.

"Nuts uses Growl!"

"Hoard Balloon stands stoically..."

"Stinker draws inspiration from Hoard Balloon!"

Comment by AveryZan

The Alliance and Horde baloons each count as their own pet towards the collect x amount of pets achievements. So this is a very easy way to get two pets towards them.

Comment by LafinJack

From the Balloon's battle pet info pane:

This creature cannot battle.

Comment by blackeyedplease

Blizz gives you the option to name your pets. No, nothing like 'Ballooney' or 'Sir Floatsalot' for my balloon. I like to use phrases like 'Alliance Sux', 'Kill Kill Kill', or 'I Like Monkeys'. Whatever fits my current mood. I change the phrases quite often. Give it a try. It's fun/funny... :) Makes me giggle.
