Attunements

Some raids only let you in once you’ve earned the key on your own character. Here are those quest chains, step by step for your faction, to follow beside the game. For now that’s Onyxia’s Lair.

Onyxia’s Lair

Every player needs their own Drakefire Amulet. Start early and bring friends: some quests are elite, and both chains go into high-level dungeons several times.

  1. “Dragonkin Menace”Burning Steppes

    From Helendis Riverhorn.

  2. “The True Masters”Ends at Morgan’s Vigil

    Six quests with this name, about the Black Dragonflight’s hold on the Blackrock orcs. The last sends you to Marshal Maxwell.

  3. “Marshal Windsor”Blackrock Depths

    Find Marshal Windsor, or proof he died.

  4. “Abandoned Hope”Burning Steppes

    Windsor sends you back to Marshal Maxwell.

  5. “A Crumpled Up Note”Blackrock Depths

    Enemies in the dungeon drop the note that starts it. Bring it to Windsor in his cell.

  6. “A Shred of Hope”Blackrock Depths

    Get Windsor’s lost papers back from Golem Lord Argelmach and General Angerforge.

  7. “Jail Break!”Blackrock Depths

    Help Windsor escape, then go back to Marshal Maxwell.

  8. “Stormwind Rendezvous”Stormwind

    Talk to Squire Rowe at the city gates to call Windsor.

  9. “The Great Masquerade”Stormwind

    Bring allies. If Windsor isn’t there, talk to Squire Rowe again.

  10. “The Dragon’s Eye”Across Azeroth

    Highlord Bolvar Fordragon sends you to find someone who can help.

  11. “Drakefire Amulet”Upper Blackrock Spire

    Take the Blood of the Black Dragon Champion from General Drakkisath to earn the amulet.

Before you enter

Keep the Drakefire Amulet in your bags. You don’t need to equip it.

Not level 60 yet?

Plan the character you’ll take into Onyxia’s Lair: pick a race and class, then give them a name.
