EavesDrop
This is my attempt to keep Grayhoof's addon alive!
The goal is to make this work under latest game version (currently 11.x). Please report any issues or bugs on the project's Github page.
What does it do?
A simple combat log that shows events (such as damage, heal, buff/debuff...), using icons and colors to make it easy to find important information by a quick skim. It separates incoming events (left side) from outgoing events (right side) from misc. events (middle).
What all can it show?
- Your hits, spells, misses, heals, etc...
- Incoming damage, spells, heals, buffs, debuffs, etc...
- Power gain
- Honor, Reputation, Skill, and Experience gain
- Mob/People you have slain
- Combat start/stop
- Timestamps and details in tooltip
- Highest hit stat tracking for both incoming and outgoing skills.
- Combat Summaries
Additionally, it keeps track of each spell's maximum normal and critical hits!
Usage
All events related to player will be shown in 3 columns. After each combat, a summary of incoming and outgoing heals and damage will be displayed.
- Shift+scroll up/down will show the top/bottom of events.
- Ctrl+scroll up/down will take you to the next/previous combat.
- Shift+Click will copy the highlighted event to the chat edit box
- Click the "sun clock" icon, to open history of highest values of all events, divided into healing and damage.
To customize the events (buff, debuffs, colors, values, ...), open the options window by right-click on the EavesDrop
tab or entering slash command: /ed
.
You can adjust the minimum damage/healing values in the options windows under Misc tab.
You can also completely exclude spells under the same tab. Enter the unwanted spell names or IDs in the Blacklist box, one spell per line. Any of the following lines will exclude Judgment:

Installation
Using addon managers
Install wago.iop app or CurseForge and search for EavesDrop
in the apps to install the addon.
Manual Installation
Download the EavesDrop.zip
file from either wago.io or github.com.
Then follow these instructions:
- Go into your WoW installation folder (e.g.
C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\_retail_
). - Go into the
Interface
sub-folder. - Go into the
AddOns
sub-folder (if you don't have one, create it). - Copy/Extract this addon's folder into the
AddOns
folder. - Make sure the folder name is
EavesDrop
.
Verification
The following folder paths will exist within your WoW Install directory:
Interface\AddOns\EavesDrop\
Interface\AddOns\EavesDrop\libs\
Interface\AddOns\EavesDrop\locals\
Look for the following (wrong) files as evidence of common mistakes:
- If you have
Interface\AddOns\EavesDrop.toc
then you've extracted the zip file's contents without its folder structure, or copied the contents without the parent folder. - If you have
Interface\AddOns\EavesDrop\EavesDrop\EavesDrop.toc
then you've extracted the zip file into a folder an extra level deep. Move the files and any sub-folders up one level and remove the extra folder. - If you have
Interface\AddOns\EavesDrop-2.8\
or similar, you need to rename it toEavesDrop
.
For more detailed instructions see wowointerfaces's FAQ.

As virginic coment is true to many symbols disturb view, but i think is cosmetic.
I suggest colors, when critic intense, the top slide on the tone, when normal less intense, 3/4 slide of same tone? to avoid de "!" and "+"
+!*0{5668}*! for a critical over heal. Too many symbols... I would prefer if I could change it to simply show it as 0 +5668 !!!. Denoting that it has healed for 0, over healed for 5668 and it was a crit.
This is sort of a big deal and I would love for it to be implemented.
some times face when i dont want.. but still use it.
love the lite impact on pc.
thanks
each time i play my rogue or shamam.. when i apply any weapon enchant (flametounge / windfury n such - or poisons) it just stop work..
only displays when i go into combat and when i leave combat..
doesnt show any damage..
any fix for this?
Could someone take over this or make a new one.
Hitmod5 is not an alternative as it uses the blizzard combat chat frame.
He hasn't shown in 7 months... I guess we're f***ed. :(
