WoW → Azeroth Survivors
From WoW to Azeroth Survivors: classes, equipment & loot differences
Warcraft knowledge helps identify classes and themes. Azeroth Survivors uses its own survival rules: reuse the questions and organization, then verify each answer in the original game.

Six common points of confusionExample: Holy ShieldThree useful next stepsSources & scopeSix common points of confusion
| Familiar topic | How to interpret it here |
|---|---|
| Spell names | Familiar names help identify a theme; values and triggers still come from this game. |
| Combat controls | Movement, experience collection and upgrade choices accompany automatic abilities. A WoW manual rotation is not this game’s control scheme. |
| Talents and jewelry | Read this game’s actual talents and run jewelry. Matching names do not validate matching values or a WoW best-in-slot list. |
| Boss drops | Use this game’s Armory by class, zone and boss. A same-name WoW boss does not establish its items, odds or location here. |
| Materials and crafting | A WoW-style mining, herbalism or blacksmithing material chain has not been established here. No copied farming or recipe route is asserted. |
| Reading a video | Check patch, difficulty, talents and equipment together. A developed-character showcase is not fresh-save evidence. |
Example: Holy Shield
A WoW guide discusses mana, threat and manual ability timing. The linked Azeroth Survivors Paladin example discusses Holy Shield with mitigation and recovery. The shared name does not prove the same damage formula, triggers or equipment requirements.
