Jaga is at theValley of Wisdom.
I've found 3 balloons at Valley of Spirits and 2 at the quest mark's location.

Comment by SaturnGrl

Is this quest only during the Dark Moon Faire week?

Comment by Vaugn

Amusingly, after you hand in this quest Jaga begins floating away holding his balloons. He arises to the height of the upper level of Orgrimmar before despawning.

For Horde: Found three in the Valley of Honor and two in the Drag.

They hover about two yards off the ground, usually next to buildings.

Comment by karnokoto

The balloons are red, just like the companion pet is. They have strings attached to the bottom and will sparkle like any other lootable quest item. 'Carefully collecting' one has a short cast bar.

As a sidenote, the pet disappears when you're mounted!

Comment by Zable

On the off chance you decide to try dive-bombing Orgrimmar children in the attempt to gain a horde b'loon as an Alliance character, don't bother. Jaga is in a different phase, and you can't interact (or see) him if you do visit. I imagine it'd be the same for Horde toons going to Stormwind to try getting that pet.

A lil kid by the pond in vally of wisdom starts the quest very easy!
When you complete it he floats away lol.
Love the balloon.

Comment by FeyGyrl

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, 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

Comment by maedea

While doing this quest I had 99 luftballons stuck in my head.

The Alliance version

Comment by Nishtai

This quest instantly reminded me about the Umbilical Brothers and the Invisible Girl who wants a red baloon :P

As a level 85 You need to put the option of finding "Low level quests " on so you can see where the quest is given

Comment by sorsa

After running around all over Orgrimmar in frustration, I found all 5 of mine in the winding catapult filled 'tunnel' at the top of the map.. despite not being in the marked questing area.

Comment by Chetti

I took the path through the drag to the valley of strength. Look between or next to buildings, from the pathway you'll be able to see the sparkles. Got all 5 in that direction looking on both sides of the path.

Comment by chrisloveswow

found all of mine but 1 in the drag then 1 in valley of strength

Comment by turkesh

Best spot for quest balloons is the path up to the back gate of Orgrimmar. Plenty of ballons on both sides. Took about 60 secs to get all 5.

I didn't get a balloon as a reward, grr

Comment by link428

It's a shame that this requires level 10. I would love to have this on my bank alt.

Comment by 708552

From the Valley of Wisdom, follow the path to The Drag through the lift, if you keep going along the upper part of The Drag you'll find about 3 balloons along your path. Once you get 3, you should see a partially completed building to your left in the bottom area of The Drag from the cooking place, go down there and there should be 2 balloons by that building. Hope this helps.

"Yay! To the mesosphere!"

Comment by 879228

I found 4 on the "shelf" of valley of wisdom. It's a good place to look imo.

Comment by 879940

Jaga is found @ Coord: 48/47

Comment by Cattleac

On an other note I can report that it looks like Jaga is moonwolking (towards the moon?) once the quest is completed.

Comment by Mansion

Don't be confused when accepting/finding this quest, the balloons are located on the ground all over Ogrimmar.

What I did was starting from the quest giver Jaga to the Actionhouse in Ogrimmar (ON FOOT/GROUNDMOUNT), then I had collected all of the balloons.

Comment by sannekee

I found them all in the valley of strength (both sides of the bank, next to the inn, both sides of the ramp between the two opposite elevators and Grommash Hold) within 2 minutes

Comment by Zanreth

I wonder if anyone would have the dedication to gather up about 99 horde players with this pet out. Knowing people, I bet it's already been done. :o

Comment by kdalleva

Since Jaga mentions the DMF, is this quest only doable the first week of the month during the DMF or all year round? Thanks.

Comment by Lilmeow

I just found 3 of my balloons in the goblin slums and 2 in the valley of spirits :)

Comment by Krusader

They float, they all float... and when you're down here with me, fat boy, you'll float too!

Comment by rameymj

LOL, lunar Festival is the worst time to do this quest. All the lanterns look like balloons.

Comment by di3di3di3

Easy xp during the WoW anniversary/ DMF along with the cooking and fishing dailies grant you like 70k xp in 10-15 mins. (>101)

Comment by TomahawkJackson

If you fly and follow him up and up and up, eventually yes, the rope comes loose and he starts falling, then he despawns on the way down - the tragic ending you thought was going to happen when he started floating away actually comes to pass.

Comment by huspomike

All 5 in Valley of Strength (Ogri starting area, by main South "Durotar" entrance. Balloons have drifted to sides of many structures, and are easy to find, as they sparkle. Good luck.

Blown Away

Jaga wants you to collect 5 Windswept Balloons from Orgrimmar.

	Windswept Balloon (5)

Description

Please, <mister/miss>, you just gotta help me!

My pa brought me a bunch of balloons from the Darkmoon Faire. Best... gift... EVER! They're magical, you know, and never lose their floatiness!

There's just one thing...

A big ol' gust of wind blew 'em right outta my hands. They're scattered all over Orgrimmar!

I'd chase after 'em myself, but this city's so big I'd get lost for sure.

Can you round 'em up for me before they float away?

Please?
