Overview

This guide offers how to get keys, attunements, and heroic keys. To make things easier, I've included info from sources like WoWwiki, Thottbot, and WoWHQ in one place. Because of the integral nature of getting heroic keys this post will also contain a few rep grinding guides.

Keys

  • Hellfire Citadel (Hellfire Peninsula)
    • The Shattered Halls (5-man Level 70): The quest to make the key starts in Shadowmoon Valley by killing Smith Gorlunk who is located on the Ata'mal Terrance of the Black Temple. He will drop a mold which starts the quest line to obtain the key. A guide for this quest line can be found here.

  • Auchindoun (Terokkar Forest)
    • Shadow Labyrinth (5-man Level 70): Obtained off of Talon King Ikiss in Sethekk Halls.

  • Tempest Keep (Netherstorm)
    • The Arcatraz (5-man Level 70): You must complete the Stormspire quest line in Netherstorm. Your quest will end you at A'dal in Shattrath City who will send you to get two pieces of the key and forge them together. The Bottom Shard of the Arcatraz Key drops from Pathaleon the Calculator in The Mechanar and the Top Shard of the Arcatraz Key drops from Warp Splinter in The Botanica. A guide for this quest line can be found here.

    • The Eye (25-man Level 70): Everyone in the raid must have The Tempest Key in order to enter The Eye. The key is a passive item just like the Drakefire Amulet. Once you complete the Cipher of Damnation quest line in Shadowmoon Valley you will recieve a letter from Khadgar in the mail asking for you to come talk with him. He will instruct you to talk with A'dal and you will then receive three quests which require you to complete Shattered Halls, Shadow Labyrinth, and The Arcatraz, all on Heroic Mode. After completing all three you will be awarded The Tempest Key which allows access into The Eye.


  • Karazhan (Deadwind Pass)
    • (10-man Level 70) Everyone in the group is required to have The Master's Key in order to enter Karazhan. The quest line for it starts right in front of the tower with a woman. She will give you two soloable quests which are done outside of the tower. You must then travel to Dalaran and speak with a mage on the northern side of the city. You will then receive a quest to get the First Key Fragment from a container near Murmur in the Shadow Labyrinth. Once you complete that quest, you are then instructed to retrieve the Second Key Fragment from The Arcatraz and the Third Key Fragment from Steamvault. After you collect all three fragments you must complete the Opening the Dark Portal inside the Caverns of Time to have Medivh complete The Master's Key. A guide for this quest line can be found here.


Attunements

  • Coilfang Reservoir (Zangarmarsh)
    • Serpentshrine Cavern (25-man Level 70): To get attuned, you must enter the Slave Pens on Heroic Mode. Shortly after the first boss you will find Skar'this the Heretic captive in a cage. He will offer the quest "The Cudgel of Kar'desh". For this quest you must retrieve an item from Gruul the Dragonkiller (Gruul's Lair) and Nightbane (Karazhan). After collecting these two items, you can return to him and he will cast a spell on you which will attune you to Serpentshrine Cavern.

  • Caverns of Time (Tanaris)
    • Battle of Mount Hyjal (25-man Level 70): After completing Opening the Dark Portal, Soridormi inside the Caverns of Time will offer the quest The Vial's of Eternity. This quest requires you to retrieve Vial Remnants from Lady Vashj and Kael'Thas Sunstrider. You should be Neutral with Scale of the Sands and able to turn in the quest for the Battle of Mount Hyjal attunement.


Heroic Mode

Getting keyed for Heroic Mode poses a particular problem: It requires a reputation grind. Each dungeon will have a different faction you need to grind reputation to revered. Once there, you can purchase a key from that factions quartermaster. When in a group, only one person must have the key to make the instance Heroic.

  • Hellfire Citadel (Hellfire Peninsula): Flamewrought Key, obtained with Revered Thrallmar reputation.
  • Coilfang Reservoir (Zangarmarsh): Reservoir Key, obtained with Revered Cenarion Expedition reputation.
  • Auchindoun (Terokkar Forest): Auchenai Key, obtained with Revered Lower City reputation.
  • Tempest Keep (Netherstorm): Warpforged Key, obtained with Revered Sha'tar reputation.
  • Caverns of Time (Tanaris): Key of Time, obtained with Revered Keepers of Time reputation.
