I LOVE profilers and coverage tools! There is SO much you can learn about a complex system's real behavior. When you see something being called the wrong number of times, bingo, you found a bug you may not have even known was happening!

At the same time, I'm much less a fan of debuggers. I use a lot of logging and print statements. It can be a real challenge to get a debugger to a given line in a given state in finite time. And then the debugger can screw up when you get there. Sometimes debuggers are buggy.
