I can see the importance of reading somebody buffing themselves even without Spy. If it’s all just in the Combat Log. If you’re trying to do a Raid or something, I think it be easier to read that you, in fact, buffed yourself, as opposed to trying to target you to ensure you are buffing yourself.
Perhaps to know to trade with that Tauren, if you’re Horde, to get some delicious Food, for your adventures ![]()
Or, in the group, knowing which person in your Group is Cooking, for you, to trade for Food Buffs ![]()
Like in a Dungeon run, it would be helpful to read your Healer drinking Water or something. It’s a great indicator to not continue pulling more Mobs.
See, and I don’t even use the Combat Log, but I can see why those things would be in the Combat Log, even if they’re just Passive Abilities.
