Is buying debug hardware helpful?

Hello,
How much debug hardware helpful? and is there hardware which will be used for Arduino,Esp etc, i mean common hardware for all.

General test equipment: DVM, logic analyzer, scope.
LED and piezo buzzer for very basic tests.

I have always done all my debugging using only Serial prints and a cheap 24mhz/8 channel logic analyzer:

I've never found it necessary to use anything else.

Many thanks for quick and detailed response.

I made these, mini serial monitor and simulated LEDs. In reality it's a custom 4809 board with display and serial ports, so you can program it to do whatever you want.

depends on the problem being debugged.

there's a lot that can be done with LEDs, voltmeter and software designed for test.

...and sometimes, a second Arduino.
