WoW Legion Black Temple Entrance

Cheap WoW WOTLK Classic Gold

The Black Temple is the fortress-citadel of Illidan Stormrage, Lord of Outland. It was once known as the Temple of Karabor, and has changed hands many times over the generations.

It is a level 70 raid instance in Outland, containing tier 6 drops and the Twin Blades of Azzinoth. The entrance to the Black Temple does not appear to be its main gates, but rather an instance portal set in a breach in the southern battlement, below the ruins of Karabor[71.0, 46.3]. It no longer has a required attunement.

Attunement

Though the attunement is no longer required to gain entrance to the Temple, you can still complete it. Below is a short guide on how to.

First you have to complete Akama's Promise. Then players adventuring in the Serpentshrine Cavern will have access to a quest from a Broken NPC namedSeer Olum in Fathom-Lord Karathress's room (the quest is entitled The Secret Compromised). After delivering a message to Akama, he informs Illidan of Kael'thas' treachery in order to attempt to prove his loyalty (Illidan believes him, but is still suspicious). You will then need to slay Al'ar in the Eye of Tempest Keep so that Akama can convince Illidan he is still loyal.

The next part of the attunement involves killing Rage Winterchill, a lich boss, which is also the first boss in the Battle of Mount Hyjal instance. After this you are sent to Xi'ri outside the gates of Black Temple. You must slay the demonic Illidari forces outside the Temple in order to provide a distraction for Akama andMaiev to slip into the Temple undetected. After that Xi'ri rewards you with the[Medallion of Karabor].

The Black Temple is the fortress-citadel of Illidan Stormrage, Lord of Outland. It contains tier 6 set pieces as well as many notable items, including The Twin Blades of Azzinoth. It's also known for providing reputation for Ashtongue Deathsworn, easily earned through clearing the raid a few times.

Like many TBC instances, Black Temple used to require attunement. This earned players the title of <Name>, Hand of A'dal which is no longer obtainable, even though the questline still exists.

Optional Attunement

  1. Complete the Tablets of Baa'ri (Aldor / Scryers) quest line which is a fairly lengthly questline in Shadowmoon Valley which also requires you to find an NPC in Tempest Keep: The Arcatraz.
  2. Venture into Serpentshrine Cavern and speak to Seer Olum who is located in Fathom-Lord Karathress's room and accept The Secret Compromised. You must kill Fathom-Lord Karathress for him to come out.
  3. Return to Akama in Shadowmoon Valley.
  4. Complete Ruse of the Ashtongue by killing Al'ar in Tempest Keep: The Eye.
  5. Complete optional attunement for Hyjal Summit: The Vials of Eternity. This requires players to loot vials from the end bosses in Tier 5 content: Lady Vashj and Kael'thas Sunstrider.
  6. Enter Hyjal Summit and kill Rage Winterchill and loot Time-Phased Phylactery for An Artifact From the Past.
  7. Turn in the linking quests to A'dal in Shattrath City and then to Xi'ri outside the Black Temple.
  8. Xi'ri will give you A Distraction for Akama which rewards you with Medallion of Karabor.
