Faction Itemization Fairness

[Sad]

I would like to raise a concern regarding faction balance and item availability.

Alliance players currently have access to powerful quest rewards such as Ring of the Academy and Orb of Kaladoon, while Horde players do not have equivalent rewards available through similar questlines.

I understand that faction-exclusive content is part of World of Warcraft's identity, but when one faction receives stronger or unique itemization options without a comparable Horde alternative, it can create an imbalance in gearing progression.

best regards,

posting the items from the database just in case.
(Ring of the Academy) https://octowow.st/db/?item=60622
(Orb of Kaladoon) https://octowow.st/db/?item=60464

There's a lot of items we can start picking and choosing from, for example Thunder Lizard's Hide is absolutely massive: https://octowow.st/db/?item=81308

If i remember correctly, the items that i have mentioned was there in turtle for both factions.

This is Horde equivalent of kara5 quest chain trinket:

This ally version with 1% spell hit is way better early on.
So OP is right - there's disproportion in itemization. Especially when spell hit is vital for raiding and source of it is very limited (ZG is fixing situation a bit).

I would def love to have access to the horde version as an ally https://octowow.st/db/?item=60461. So it would be nice of devs to add both versions to the quest rewards for both factions.
