SOME of the possible faces for some of the races
These are in no way complete, there are far more, literally hundreds more but I can't find them atm.
I'll update when I do, but for now.

Recently dumped a boatload of cash from our company buyout into a new computer. Scored a 6057 on the benchmark, but never tried it with my older one.
Is that a decent score? They don't seem to have provided any measuring stick, and I never read the previous e-peen comparison threads.

That's incredibly good in comparison to everyone else.
Also XIV just had a huge performance boost apparently.
Scores go something like this atm:
0-1000 = Unplayable
1000-1500 = Low - Medium quality
1500-2000 = Medium - high quality
2000-2500 = High quality
2500-3000 = Very high quality
Of course you could push it higher if you could handle a bit of lag, but those scores - quality numbers are assuming you want to play with no lag at all.

If you want technica; info, I can't help.. but looking at this thread ( http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/290906-15-whats-ffxiv-benchmark-score/) people seem to average the 4k's, so i'd presume 6k is good.. hope that helps a little, lol.
Also, what settings did you have the benchmark on?

Good to know. I dumped about twice as much money as I ever have on a computer before, and if the thing wasn't going to scream, I want my money back.
The only options I had were HIGH versus LOW resolution, and race/gender. I did hyuran male, 1920x1080. I also selected Japanese, which amusingly still played in English, which seems about right given how much more focused the beta has been on NA versus JP players this time around.

Yeah, epic score is epic @ 1920x1080.
I got a 2900 iirc. I was pretty happy seeing as I'm pre i7.
Also, LEECH!

Also, Lancers (DRG) get an awesome ability at level 10.
They get an auto Regain and Regen :D
The ability is like a drain samba too, everyone in your pt will gain HP from hitting the mob if the lancer has.

Hi, I'm NOT in the Beta. But that doesn't mean I'm not curious as to how the game mechanics will work, and how various things will work. I previously created 2 threads about various news that those of us not in the Alpha or beta won't know.
I know for some of you who have this information will be pissed because I'm breaking the NDA. But quite frankly I don't care. If there are any players like me out there, you'll be itching to find out information, and I'll try to help with all the info I'm getting from my sources and various websites.
Well after all that, let's get going.
Bazaar system:
A retainer is a character which comes freely with your main. This character can only have one name, and will sit in the marketplace when you are offline, or are otherwise indisposed. I assume all money will be kept on the character. You may pay 100 gil a day to get a proper stall, and you can decorate this to look like a weapon shop, or a craft shop etc.
Ability System:
For those of us who aren't in the Beta, here's a bit of information on the Ability system.
The system seems reminiscent of IX's ability set system, and Seems to have a lot of similarities to BLU magic setting.
Crafting
So the crafting seems to be some sort of mini-game. I know currently, synthing is like XI, but gathering materials when you're a miner or another class, works like a mini-game. Better you do, more resources you get apparently.
Classes:
Along with the standard classes, other classes have been found in the dat files Some of these are:
Musketeer, Fencer, Shepherd, Mystic.
There are more, but I'm having a hard time finding info.
General fluff
Just general little things.
Like
MOUSTACHE TARU
Size difference :o
Real players play Brogadyn
Coolest Miqo'te ever
Clippers sure have changed.
Feel free to let me know if I've missed anything, and I'll be sure to add it to the OP.
