WAR is now a very viable tank, slightly better than PLD for certain content, slightly worse than PLD for other content. Both can run any content when played competently.
WAR + PLD is now a better combo than PLD + PLD due to stacking buff/debuffs.

Status effect DR got tweaked to kick in the cooldown timer at the LAST stun not the FIRST stun, so you can still stun things three times without it being "Fully resisted", but after that you'll need to wait. You can no longer Stunlock things like Ifrit's Eruption permanently.

Good gear got easier to farm (Crystal Tower, gear + Myth + Phil tomes!).

Enmity generation got buffed in Tanking stances.

A good non-laggy internet connection got more important (lots and LOTS of dodging in certain fights like Ultima HM!)

That's about it...
