Karazhan attunement requires level 68 to begin and level 69 to turn-in the master key quest.

Commentaire de r8response

Check out the addon Attune

The author has started it in preparation of TBC.

Commentaire de Vendevorex

Attunement is not complete once you have access to Hyjal Summit! You need to defeat the first boss in there, Rage Froidhiver, in order to get his Phylactère chronophasé while on the quest Un artéfact du passé in order to obtain access to Black Temple. While that isn't terribly hard, the access to Black Temple is the final attunement, not access to Hyjal.

Commentaire de RichardMNixon

I love attunements so much. They make endgame feel like something you have to unlock, give a great story lead-in, and are a great way to onboard people to raiding. It's very disappointing that they stopped being a thing.

Commentaire de nishav101822

The guide should be updated regarding the flying mount requirement. Any main doing this is going to have their flying mounts but it is important to note for alts that they can be Warlock summoned to every part of the attunement steps.

Commentaire de Elevated11

The attunement map embodies what wow used to be, with so much interaction among Dgs and raids, giving a plus to ending content, and what is missing in expansions nowadays, with hard-fought achievement.
I really miss that kind of fun :(

Commentaire de Avnxt

Been making a spreadsheet for our guild with informations like gear, enchants, attunements and reputations! Wish this was availiable back when I did the Attunement part! Very detailed! Well done! :)

Commentaire de sandreid87

The Black Temple Attunement is missing. It starts in Shadowmoon Valley, with the "Tablets of Baa'ri"-Quest.

Commentaire de Erkon91

I believe rogues with max lock picking skill can unlock normal mode dungeons like Arcatraz and Shattered Halls without doing the quests required to obtain the keys.

Commentaire de MyPPSmal

The Box of Surveying Equipment for the Rightful Repossession quest, are actually located outside Manaforge Duro and not inside Eco-Dome like it's said in the guide.

Commentaire de Sacredchao

Man those are a lot of words to basically convey the same information as this old thing: https://i.imgur.com/sHjrAPm.png

Commentaire de vicioushunter

So does this guide not tell us which attunements are available in phase 1 and which attunement quests we cannot start until a later phase? Those seem like key points so that when a new phase releases players are not already behind the curve.

Commentaire de KJLawell

Do you need to be attuned to summon Nightbane to loot the item needed for the SSC attunement, or can you loot the item when somebody else summons Nightbane?

Commentaire de globalseoshop

Thank You So much

Commentaire de Bloodylightadin

Killing him before any prisoners have been executed will make Unused Axe of the Executioner Unused Axe of the Executioner drop, which is required for this quest.

On TBC Anniversary, this is no longer true for the TK attunement quest "Mercy." You only need to kill the last boss and the executioner before he kills the LAST prisoner. The prisoners before the last can be executed and the axe will still drop off of the executioner. I am unsure of the exact time, but this should give you about an hour and 15 minutes to complete the dungeon with the last prisoner remaining and still get the quest done.
