Azeroth Survivors Black Screen or Stuck Loading
A black canvas in Azeroth Survivors is often the first load still pulling the client, not a dead page. If the console names HTTP 429, you are on the busy path. If it names a lost GPU device, the boot script has already stored a report under rogue.gpuCrash.

How long should the first load take?
One public measurement, on an older build, saw about 140MB, about 1150 requests, and around a minute to the first frame. Treat a silent minute as loading. Treat several minutes with a console error as a failure. We have not re-timed 0.110.0.
Where is the crash log?
On the official origin, DevTools, Application, Local Storage, key rogue.gpuCrash. The boot script writes a pipeline report there and prints it on the next load. Read it on wow.aethus.pl, not on this desk.
