Combat Log

The Combat Log is a log of combat actions and results, but may also show the results of the profession activities of nearby characters.
All messages related to combat appear in this window. Watch it during combat to see how you are affecting your opponent, and vice versa.
By default, it is accessible via a Combat Log tab on the General chat window.
Combat Logs may be written to a file using the /combatlog command. The resulting file may be found at Logs\WoWCombatLog.txt. The complexity of the combat logs content since the patch 2.4 changes means that logs are best used when analyzed by one of the available parsers which analyze combat logs to generate raid statistics.
The first such parser of wide popularity was Wow Web Stats. Currently World of Logs is the web parser of choice for many people; however a new site, Warcraft Logs hopes to replace it going into 6.0.
WowCardioRaid is also available for those that prefer a local client.
Details of the changes made to the combat log in patch 2.4 can be found in the documentation for COMBAT_LOG_EVENT.
