Burning Crusade Classic Attunements Part One -
The Master's Key, Karazhan Attunement
Karazhan is one of the first raids fresh Level 70's will be doing, it's a 10-Man Raid and one of the most iconic raids in The Burning Crusade. Before you can get anywhere in the attunement process, you'll need to be able to enter Karazhan and that is the first step in this long attunement journey.
1. Level 70
Reaching level 70 is obviously the first step in this long process. As every raid requires level 70 to enter, some of the attunement process will require a flying mount, which also requires level 70 and a significant gold investment. Thankfully, reaching level 70 will grant the player access to two raids right away, Gruul's Lair and Magtheridon's Lair.
While it is technically possible to start some of these quests at level 68 (particularly for Druids, who can get flight form at 68), in most cases it's easier to start these processes at 70.
Attunements: Gruul's Lair and Magtheridon's Lair.
