Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When is Balor's birthday in Fields of Mistria?
Balor's birthday is Summer 10.
Where can I find Balor?
Start in town or at the Sleeping Dragon Inn, then visit the Eastern Road and Bathhouse.
Plan a Balor visit
Balor is a traveling merchant, so his profile works best as a route-planning guide rather than a single-location answer. Check the map before leaving the farm, then begin with town or the Sleeping Dragon Inn and continue toward the Eastern Road or Bathhouse only when the marker points there. His Summer 10 birthday is a useful planning date, but a normal weekly visit keeps the relationship moving without forcing a long search.
Carry the item selected from the Balor gift guide and combine the visit with a shop, request, or road errand. A traveling character is easy to miss when you start walking before checking the map. If Balor is not at the first stop, use the marker to decide whether the next stop is worth the travel; otherwise finish a nearby task and return another day.
Use the merchant route efficiently
Balor's town and Inn stops fit naturally beside a central-town loop. The Eastern Road is a better pairing with foraging or a trip away from the village, while the Bathhouse works well when you are already checking Juniper's route. Keep your gift chest organized by character so you can leave quickly, and avoid carrying a rare item across the whole map until you know Balor is available.
Follow the shared romance route
Balor is one of the 12 marriage candidates. At 8 Hearts, choose the romantic response if you want to start dating; the Best Friend response keeps the route platonic. Dates occur on Saturday and Sunday, one date each day. Once you reach 10 Hearts while dating, Elsie delivers the Engagement Ring recipe the following morning. Craft the ring at the Forge and give it to Balor to start the proposal event, then use the romance options guide for wedding planning and family content.
Keep travel and inventory under control
The most reliable Balor routine is short and repeatable: read the request log, check the map, visit the nearest marked stop, give the planned gift, and complete one nearby errand. Store extra gifts and mining materials at home rather than filling your bag before the route is confirmed. When the season or story changes, recheck the map because a traveling merchant's position can move even when your relationship goal stays the same.
What should I give Balor?
Use the dedicated Balor gift guide to choose a listed Loved or Liked item. The correct choice depends on the item you already have, so do not treat a generic expensive item as automatically successful.
Is Balor available for marriage?
Yes. He is a marriage candidate. Reach the 8-Heart event, choose the romantic response, date him to 10 Hearts, then use the Engagement Ring route.
Where should I check first?
Start in town or at the Sleeping Dragon Inn, then use the map to decide whether Balor has moved to the Eastern Road or Bathhouse.
A weekly Balor routine
Pick a central-town day and a road day. Check the marker after your morning farm loop, carry one listed gift, and visit the nearest stop before continuing to the Eastern Road or Bathhouse. Before Summer 10, place the planned item in a separate chest and confirm the route on the day. This keeps a traveling merchant's relationship progress efficient without turning every visit into a full-town search.
Keep the route practical
Balor's moving route rewards preparation more than a long list of possible stops. Check the map, choose one nearby objective, and return to the farm when that loop is complete. Keep a second gift ready for the next day instead of carrying every rare item at once. A simple two-day rhythm also leaves room for mining, fishing, and town repairs.
