The most recent issue of Dengeki has taken a look at some of the hard mechanics and numbers in the current test version, and that results in some interesting pieces of new information compared to what we already knew.
HP, MP, and TP, previously stats that could be raised as a character physical level improved, now increase automatically with physical level. Three stats -- Agility, Charisma, and Luck -- have been yanked, with the six remaining stats (Strength, Vitality, Dexterity, Piety, Mind, and Intelligence) still raised via points. It also appears that damage will be applied to various parts of a monster body, allowing for tricks such as disabling monster special attacks via careful targeting. While we do not know quite enough to start down the road toward min-maxing characters in Final Fantasy XIV money, we are getting a clearer picture of the game operation every day.
