When will SE release an addon SDK?

Be nice to have addons that give mob weakness, distance ect.

A DPS meter other then yourself is not productive. THis game (including how it is in alpha) won't work well with a dps meter trying to tally other players (eve nthe best ones is not 100% accurate). What you will end up with is idiots who try to spam damage to be top dog in DPS, and neglect their duties, whipping the party, and missing timing to link special finishers. You will end up making enemies fast.

Other addons for farming, perhaps, but those are built in and unlock with ability levels.

Self DPS, maybe, but even that will lead to players not doing tasks. It fien to test out build gear, but limited.

It will depend on if mods can detect the target name or not (for weakness information). I am curious on what kind of lengths they are going at for this addon system. Simple pieces of information go a long way... Though I really hope that they at least let us add our own interface elements (like a special customized ability bar and such).

Cant we just have addons like skyrim?
To make stuff function better, but not actually altering the gameplay.
So let people make a "better grass" mod if they want to.

Would be wild if they let you mod the models XD

HD FFXIV here I come lol

From what i've seen, it seems that's about as far as they're going with it. So UI Customization, but not much beyond that.

I would love a weakness finder more as a skill, like in the other FF games.

Skill abilities like that wuld be nice. Such as a skill to see mob elements (similar to other FF games and Lost Odyssey).

They plan on customizable bars, themes, color layouts ect. Which is good, right now it is a default scheme in alpha.

I don't want the game looking like a WOw addon mess, that works quarky, or just results in a creen of mashable buttons. I prefer a streamline, customizable, flipping system.
