Realms ONYXIA Introducing Attunement purchase into the coin shop

[psycgothic]

Good afternoon,

I would like to discuss the idea of introducing attunement purchase in the coin shop.

What Does This Mean?

No more grinding through tedious quest chains or waiting for groups to complete attunement requirements—now, you can unlock access to key raids instantly and jump right into endgame content with your friends.

Why Add This Option?

Many players love raiding but dislike the time-consuming attunement grind, especially for alternate characters. This new system provides an optional shortcut for those who want to jump straight into the action while keeping traditional attunement quests available for those who prefer the classic experience.

Speaking from my perspective I believe I would have at least 1 if not 2 more characters if above option was available to us, simply it's too time consuming getting the character prepared and attuned before you can actually play the current content.

Imagine when Black Temple and Hyjal come out how long it would take for a new character to get ready to raid.

It would also benefit you guys greatly as I am sure many people would invest into this option, please share your opinion on this subject.

At first, I was skeptical about this idea since raid attunements are meant to be a rite of passage, ensuring players experience the game's progression as intended. Skipping these quests might take away some of the immersion and sense of accomplishment that comes with unlocking a raid the traditional way. However, I do understand that for many players—especially those leveling alts—the attunement process can feel like an unnecessary roadblock rather than a meaningful challenge. Given that this is just an optional convenience and doesn’t affect game balance, I think it’s a great addition overall. Looking forward to seeing how it plays out!

Or maybe make all players attuned to previous tier content automatically when new patch comes.
For example when Hyjal and Black Temple releases make all characters automatically attuned to SSC & TK (without title) so that they only need to complete Vials of Eternity quest to raid in current tier and so on.
