FAQ
Do races matter in Azeroth Survivors?
Yes. Every race has two or three racials, and the active ones cast on their own, so they work every run without a key press. Examples: Tauren +15% max health, Night Elf +8% movement speed, Gnome +20% luck.
What is the best race in Azeroth Survivors?
It depends on the class. For survival, Tauren (+15% health, War Stomp) and Undead or Night Elf (immunity near death) stand out. For progress, Human adds +10% experience and +20% gold. Gnome’s +20% luck improves card rarity.
Where do you change race?
Open the Armory from the character screen. The Character tab shows the Alliance and Horde portraits, gender, and appearance options. Your race list depends on the class.
