The Burning Crusade Attunements Guide
Mount Hyjal Attunment
If you've already been running the Tier 5 raids, then you might already be attuned to Hyjal Summit without even knowing it! To begin this attunement process, simply speak with Soridormi in the Caverns of Time and accept the quest The Vials of Eternity.
This quest will task the player with obtaining Vashj's Vial Remnant from Lady Vashj in Serpentshrine Cavern and Kael's Vial Remnant from Kael'thas in Tempest Keep. As long as you've completed the Attunement process for the previous TBS raids, this quest is extremely straightforward, and once complete, you will be attuned to Hyjal Summit!
Black Temple Attunement
The attunement for Black Temple is not so simple. This quest chain begins in Shadowmoon Valley with either Tablets of Baa'ri or Tablets of Baa'ri (depending on whether you chose to align with either The Aldor or The Scryers). Continue completing the quest chain in Shadowmoon Valley until you reach the Seer Udalo, at which point you will need to find a group for The Arcatraz.
Next, players will return to Shadowmoon Valley to continue the questline. The Ata'mal Terrace will require players to find a group and defeat the elite Shadowlord Deathwail and obtain the Heart of Fury. Finally, players will be sent to A'dal in Shattrath City, where the quest chain abruptly ends.
The next step of this attunement will require players to enter Serpentshrine Cavern and defeat Fathom-Lord Karathress. Upon his defeat, Seer Olum will be found nearby, and he will offer the quest The Secret Compromised.
Traveling back to Akama in Shadowmoon Valley, the final quest that is currently completable will be available - Ruse of the Ashtongue. This step will give players the Ashtongue Cowl costume, which they will use inside Tempest Keep, and defeat the first boss - Al'ar. Completing this quest will lead to An Artifact From the Past, which will only be completable once Phase 3 goes live, as it requires players to defeat the first boss of the Hyjal Summit raid - Rage Winterchill.
Once Phase 3 is live and this quest has been completed, players will continue the quest chain, speaking with Akama and A'dal one last time, before finally being sent to The Black Temple in Shadowmoon Valley.
