Updates advisory: The minumum level for Lord Balrog has been increased from level 50 to level 65, and only Easy Mode remains which is open to all level ranges. This means that you can use any skill 3rd job until 6th job, and the time limit is only 20 minutes (which is sufficient). Unique to this boss, it has an entry count of 7 for every character, and it does not provide any mesos, through boss crystals or otherwise.

Lord Balrog (usually just called Balrog) is the second boss content available, with the first being Easy Zakum. Players must be level 65 or higher to enter.

To get to Balrog, go to the Sleepywood dungeon and go down the stairs all the way to the door. You can teleport close to the entrance by paying the Danger Zone Taxi of Sleepywood or Manji in Perion (10,000 mesos). You can also move there through the boss menu.

When you begin the fight, attack as much as you can. However note that balrog's HP will only be affected after 3 minutes into the fight. You have a total of 20 minutes for the boss (effectively only 17 minutes to damage it).
