WoW Forever raids: Onyxia attunement, sizes and entrances

On October 20, Blizzard published "World of Warcraft: Forever Raid Overview—Locations, Raid Sizes, and Attunement": where WoW Forever's first three raids are, how many players and bosses each one takes, and the questline that opens Onyxia's Lair, step by step for each faction. All three open to level 60 characters on December 9, and Blizzard currently plans a weekly reset for each.

The three raids

• The Barrow Deeps is the prison that held Illidan Stormrage for 10,000 years. One of its entrances is in Blackmaw Hold, the level 55 to 60 dungeon in Azshara: where WoW Forever's new dungeons are.
• Hyjal Summit opens with a battle against an ancient guardian; then each raid chooses its path across the mountain, through ruins above and below ground, to the last encounters.
• Onyxia's Lair asks for fire resistance before you go in. Every member of the raid must carry the Drakefire Amulet: in the bags is enough, it does not need to be equipped.

Onyxia attunement: the Drakefire Amulet

Each player earns the amulet through their faction's questline. Blizzard advises starting early and bringing friends for the elite quests: the chain goes through Blackrock Depths and Blackrock Spire more than once. Tick each step as you go: your ticks stay on this device.

Alliance

• "Dragonkin Menace", from Helendis Riverhorn in the Burning Steppes.
• The six quests named "The True Masters", up to Marshal Maxwell at Morgan's Vigil, in the Burning Steppes.
• "Marshal Windsor": find him, or proof of his death, in Blackrock Depths; then "Abandoned Hope", back to Marshal Maxwell.
• "A Crumpled Up Note": the note drops from enemies in Blackrock Depths; bring it to Marshal Windsor in his cell.
• "A Shred of Hope": Windsor's lost information, from Golem Lord Argelmach and General Angerforge in Blackrock Depths.
• "Jail Break!": get Windsor out of Blackrock Depths, then back to Marshal Maxwell.
