How do I start finding balloons?
Head to an open area away from trees and tall structures, then look up at the sky and wait. Balloons spawn randomly in open spaces, so walking around increases your chances of spotting one drifting past.
What weapon should I use to shoot down balloons?
Why am I not finding any balloons?
Balloons only spawn in open areas, so make sure you're not surrounded by trees, mountains, or buildings. If you're in a multiplayer world with many players nearby, balloon spawns are limited to reduce lag, so try exploring further away from other players' bases.
How long do fallen chests stay on the ground?
Fallen chests despawn after ten minutes if you don't collect them, so grab your loot quickly once a balloon falls. If you need more time, stay near the chest to prevent it from disappearing.
What's the difference between balloon rarities?
Can I find balloons in other dimensions?
Yes, balloons can spawn in The Aether dimension high in the sky and in the Twilight Forest, giving you more places to hunt for loot beyond the overworld.
Do balloons ever drop enchanted books?
Yes, balloons occasionally drop rare items like enchanted books, though this happens randomly rather than from specific rarities. Keep hunting to increase your chances of finding these valuable drops.
How far can balloons fly before disappearing?
Balloons will despawn if they drift too far away from you, so don't let them get out of sight or you'll lose them. Stay alert and shoot them down before they float beyond your render distance.
Does this mod work with TerraFirmaCraft?
Yes, the mod has built-in compatibility that adjusts loot drops to match TerraFirmaCraft rules, so balloon items will align with that mod's progression system.
Will balloons lag my server?
The mod includes spawn limiting for multiplayer worlds to prevent performance issues—when many players are together, fewer balloons spawn, and players far apart get their own independent balloon spawns to keep things running smoothly.
