The Balrog expedition is the fight against the full-size Balrog sealed in Balrog's Tomb. It is not the field boss Jr. Balrog.

Entering

  1. Talk to Mu Young at the Bottom of the Temple. Below level 50: "You do not meet the criteria to battle Balrog!"
  2. The party leader creates the expedition; the party is the expedition.
  3. The leader chooses "Start the fight!" with at least 6 players ("You need at least 6 players registered in your expedition."). The party is escorted into Balrog's Tomb. Only one expedition can be inside per channel.
  4. The 60-minute clock starts once and does not reset for latecomers.

The fight

Balrog rises with his right claw and a sealed left claw. One minute later the left claw breaks free.

  1. Kill both claws (left 2,640,000 HP, right 3,060,000 HP). Until then the body cannot be hurt.
  2. Then kill the body (4,280,000 HP, level 105). It reflects attacks for 7 seconds every minute, has an attack that sets HP and MP to 1, and a dispelling attack.
  3. Ten seconds after the body falls, a sealed Balrog appears; it does not fight back and drops nothing.

A world-wide message announces the victory. Mu Young inside the tomb takes you out.

Rewards

The body drops a Dark Token, Elixir, Power Elixir, Mana Elixir, Reindeer Milk and Sunset Dew (100%), Piece of Balrog Leather (60%), All Cure Potion (50%) and food. The Balrogs give no EXP.
