I'd also note it appears a lot of these different tools / devs are actively trying not to mess with other player's experience, just improve the experience for those who use it.

Here some that stuck out at me as I went through ones I've learned here or via reddit (mostly via reddit to be honest):
  • Put housing objects where and how you want without having to deal with glitches
  • Turn your combos into stuff that looks like pvp combos
  • Deadly Boss mod (tells you what is coming up and sometimes what to do to deal with the mechanic)
  • Notifications for skills and events (like if a player uses provoke, someone dies, you have a skill off cooldown, etc)
  • Marks players that have debuffable debuffs, mark players that can be raised or if someone else is raising them
  • Tells you you and others damage (parse)
  • Check the market without being near the market
  • Tell you when hunts are spotted and where they are exactly (based on community data I guess, so it's not a perfect system)
  • Reduce a hardcoded animation lock so you can double and triple weave
  • Hide or change players (graphics in general)
  • Modify UI elements (though that should be obvious by this point)
  • Help you play cactpot
  • Help you play Triple Triad (NPCs only) - I want to note here that is is pretty interesting that developers self control their works to try and not to ruin other player's experience. Kind of sweet/cute.
  • Info in deep dungeons
  • Show exactly where your trigger pixel is so you can dodge AoE's insanely well
  • More powerful UI features in general like filtering spam, blocklist, teleport ease, etc.
  • Macros that can call other macros or be as long as you'd like
  • Improved mouse over macros
  • Most epic one I saw, adds chat bubbles.. XD
I use the chat bubbles one, it is really great and I would hate not having them anymore
