Looks like this needs a little updating:
Zul'Aman is a 10- man instance which requires no (woot) attunement
Black temple 25- man
(Exerpt taken from wikipedia)
In order to enter the Black Temple, players must complete a questline that includes killing Kael'thas's pet Al'ar and obtaining an item from Rage Winterchill in Hyjal.
This quest line is the Ashtongue Deathsworn line

thanks
w00t thanks for takin the time to make this, very helpful
Rightful Repossession
First of all great work i'm following all this guide to get keyed for everything.
Second, while doing the quest Rightful Repossession in the Arcatraz chain quest, i recommend entering Manaforge Duro and staying close to the wall to get the boxes so you will aggro no mobs.
heroic keys?
First off GREAT guide very useful and instructive ... iv only got kara attuned but im sure im not the only one but guide for heroic keys is much in need
Heroic Keys
regarding yuor statement on Heroic Keys. the rep needed to get a heroic dungeon key has been lowered to honored. there really isnt much to say about it. all you need to do is run these instances for the according keys.
Hellfire Citadel key - Run Ramps/Blood Furnace. those are by far the easiest ones to run, and get good rep. i ran about 30 times in one week for my hellreaver, so at 70 i got my key immediately
Zangarmarsh (Coilfang Reservoir) - for this, you need Cenarion Expedition rep. it can be obtained by running quests in Coilfang reservoir, which is found in Zangarmarsh. there is also a quest line that starts in Hellfire that gets very good XP, and some other quests in Zangarmarsh for Cenarion rep.
Auchindoun - these instances are the instances in Southwestern terrokar, inside the Bone Wastes. the rep faction you will be grinding is Lower City. fairly easy to grind. i recommend doing Mana tombs and Sethek halls. especially if you are hunter/pally/warrior, there is a quests that can get you a nice polearm, which is a quest reward. ( http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29329 ) and another nice drop is from Sethekk halls, a 2 hand axe ( http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27986#comments ) great for arms warrior
as a ret pally, i went with the quil though.
Tempest Keep - Tempest keep instances are the instances in Netherstorm. they are overrun dreanei ships hovering n the sky, and you require a flying mount to access them. the faction you will be grinding is Sha'tar. id recommend Mechanar or Botanica, as they are short and easy.
Last but certainly not least, is Caverns of time, located in eastern Tanaris. to egt heroic key for this, you will first have to do a escort quest, no worries, all you have to do is follow an NPC around for about 5 minutes. easy stuff. then head into Durn. completing Durn unlocks BM, and then in turn, that unlocks HS. id recommend doing Durn with a group of mostly 70's as it is a relatively fast instance, although it is a healers nightmare, as Thrall never stops walking -_-.
I believe i have covered all of the BC instances. That is how to obtain the Heroic keys, i would like to reiterate that you only need to be Honored with a certain faction, not Revered as of, i believe 2.2. happy hunting guys! and i hope this helped
first post so go easy!
Great guide. I'm in the
Great guide. I'm in the process of getting Kara key and this has helped me TREMENDOUSLY. I praise you for this guide and I hope you get more and add for The Black Temple. Thanks again for a great guide!

no attune for The Black
no attunement needed for The Black Temple any longer
Removal of attunements
yeah confirmed as of tuesday you are longer required to have attunements for the eye and serphent shrine
To enter these instances now you just simply zone in and are able to do them now.
Imo i think its lame, for all the hard work people do to get attuned, it was a challenge, and something to look forward to, and be proud you finished it, i did ssc attunemnt, almost done with the eye, i'll finish it just to do it, but i cant say i will on my alts =\
Amazing
An amazing guide thank you. Currently using it to get the keys and attunements, and have recommended all my guildies come here and use it aswell.
Sweet
Just to let you know, they removed the attunement for The Eye and Serpentshrine Cavern

Indeed!
Indeed!
Excellent
Great guide here. The rest of my guild isn't there yet but I'm going to start getting my quests done so I can help them once they are. Thank god I'm already on part 26 of "The Eye" chain. Didn't even know those were part of an attunment..
Thanks for this!
This really is a great guide, as you need to get attuned to everything else in order to go to mount hyjal. Had I not seen this, I wouldn't be attuned to arcatraz right now; I'd have given up on the questline after "an audience with the prince (getting those triangulation points is a pain).
This is awesome and I will
This is awesome and I will definitely be consulting this guide once the time comes for me to get attuned. I think there might not be a massive amount of interest at the moment because of the early stages we are still in when it comes to end game raiding. TBC has been out little over a month and only the really hardcore players will have reached 70. I think a huge proportion of players are still levelling (or trying out their Draenei/Belf alts) and getting gear.
Anyway really well done on putting together this information and I am sure lots of people (albeit silently) appreciate it and will be using it =)
respect
I am currently too low on lvl to actually follow the path you plaved for me and the other pro's
Just because there aren't much replies doesn't mean it isn't respected.
I'd say thanks and keep other guides (if you have any plans for it) coming
Excellent
Thsi is just what I have been searching for on the web. You have saved me hours of looking up disjointed quests on thottbot!

This is amazing, I'm speechless. Thank you for your work!
Thanks for the comment
Thanks for the comment snowflake, Im glad you appreciate my work. There seems however not to be much interest in this guide, and it would be nice to get some critical feedback. I guess people are just more interested in leveling guides.
