With how easy the heroics are, I'm not sure attunements would have made much sense. So far it feels like level 80 heroics in Naxx10 gear are easier than level 70 heroics in Sunwell gear. Some of the achievements add a challenge, but if all you are after is loot and badges most of them are a breeze.

I guess that the main issue here is WHO you are running with. My mates and I jumped right into Heroics when we were able, but we're all on the "pretty good" side of the skill scale (if I may say so myself). But...I've done some PUG's, and it's not pretty, not at all. Sure, with my friends/guildies, the runs can be a joke. But with 2-4 other random folks? I begin to see why they call this "heroic". Therein lies the problem, as I see it. We are looking at the non attunement issue through the rose colored glasses of having the backing of a very good guild(s). Try doing some pug's, and I wonder if folks thoughts on the difficulty and lack of attunements would change.
