It isn't really buffs that I am so worried about, it is mostly heals. But HP buffs could be used as heals, so buffs should really cause hate too.

when someone killing dervishes in comons asked my druid for SoW I always waited till they stop fighting to cast it - i valued my faction. yeah buffs should defently put you on hate list

On Live, when my druid heals my pet, he does not get any faction hits when the mob dies. I'm not sure if this is unique to healing pets though. Always bugged me because then I need to remember to cast something on the mob to get the faction hit.

Yes, my necro had to do at least one point of damage to get the faction hits while my pet defended me. I think that meant I also had to do at least one point of damage to get the exp as well.

Probably a big reason for pets not getting faction hits is because I remember people going AFK with a pet up at the orcs in west commons so they could get FP faction so they could trade in NFP. Free AFK faction gains was probably a large reason to remove it from pets. Though, if you are healing the pet, you aren't AFK so you should really be able to get faction IMO.
