In ACNH, the balloon is one of the extra items. There is a balloon with a gift, and you can shoot it from the air with a slingshot. They will randomly drop clothes, furniture, ACNH bells and rare DIY recipes, which is why they are popular with players.

To get unique DIY recipes, you can only through these balloons. Ambitious players will want to farm as many balloons as possible. MMOWTS will introduce in detail some techniques and reliable methods of collecting balloons that professional players often use.

Where to find balloons?

The balloon can spawn from any direction on the island, but in one day, you only need to pay attention to one direction. The spawns will change every sunrise and sunset, that is, at 6 am and 6 pm. In the switch is made, you can see the spawn location, because this is the source of the balloon.

The best way to find them is to listen, because there will be a tell-tale whistle indicating the info about the balloon.

Watch the time

A new balloon will spawn every 4 minutes and 9 minutes, but you may have to wait 5 minutes to see them, so don’t worry if you don’t see them as you expected.

Pay attention to wind direction

Wind direction will affect the route of the balloon as it travels across your island. To know where the wind will take the balloon, you need to spend time observing it. This is a line, you will want to follow this line, if you happen to cross the island, then you may find where it will end.

The tall wall trick

In the game, the players find that using a high wall can change the direction of the balloon, because the balloon will change its route when it encounters a building. When you know where they spawn, you can build a wall along the island, a prison fence or climbing wall will work.

The balloon will hit this wall and change its course to fly directly south. You can just stand and wait to shoot it down.

This is the way of balloon farming. If you don’t get the items in the game, you can also come directly to MMOWTS to buy ACNH Items, whether it’s villagers or other rare items, you can find them here.
