Can Alliance Players Enter Orgrimmar?
Alliance players can enter Orgrimmar, but they will be entering a separate instance of the city, which is not the same as the one that Horde players experience, and they will not be able to interact with Horde players in the city. This allows Alliance players to complete specific quests or achievements within the city without the risk of being attacked by Horde guards or players.
