Stack concept is probably my favorite feature that I know Maya won't have ever but I'll try not to post the same tools everybody is posting:
- Snapping that simply works as you expect. Most Maya users slide the mouse to snap to points. We just click. - Move Tool (M key) Maya's NEX Modeling Toolkit is close enough to move components but still lacks the magnet and merge. Move an edge loop with magnet and middle click is a must in my workflow. - Weight tools : Weight painting, Weight Editor and Smooth Weights that work as expected without having to lock everything, etc. - Reference planes for modeling (Im not sure if Maya has something like this) - Friendly GUI in general. Ex, Keyboard Re-Mapping Tool, aritmetic functions in PPG boxes, multiple ppgs, easily detect double edges in the viewport, colors in UV borders to know which edges are connected in the UV Editor, etc. and a lot more !
