Attunement

Each player earns the Drakefire Amulet through a faction-specific questline. The amulet needs to be in the player’s inventory; it does not need to be equipped.

Alliance begin with “Dragonkin Menace” in the Burning Steppes. Horde begin with “Blood and Thunder” in the Badlands. Blizzard’s overview lists the complete faction-specific chains.

Faction attunement route

Alliance: begin Dragonkin Menace in Burning Steppes, continue through The True Masters, Marshal Windsor, Jail Break! and The Great Masquerade, then The Dragon’s Eye and Drakkisath’s blood in Upper Blackrock Spire.

Horde: begin Blood and Thunder in Kargath; follow Warlord’s Command and For the Horde!, meet Rexxar and Myranda, complete Emberstrife’s tests, and collect Drakkisath’s blood in Upper Blackrock Spire.

Each player must carry the resulting Drakefire Amulet; it need not be equipped. Check the official overview for the full quest sequence.

Preparing for Onyxia

Blizzard describes three phases with dangerous fire attacks and advises preparing fire resistance and coordinating movement. Exact resistance thresholds and detailed Forever mechanics remain unverified.

Its announced opening is December 9, 2026.
