I think the buff bar can too easily become cluttered, and create hardship in tracking active buffs/stacks/timers.
The buff bar features many buffs, often 20+ at once during combat. There are many types of buffs; active prayers, potion timers, incense sticks, aura, familiars, weapon stacks, ability stacks, pocket slot items, active weapon perks, and many many more.
These buffs ebb and flow with expiring timers, or stacks, often keeping it difficult to easily keep tabs on a timer or buff because of the constant flux of each buff.
I think empowering players to customize, arrange, and order their buff bars accordingly can significantly reduce clutter & friction. There could be defined categories, static vs. dynamic positioning, color coordination.
