The only things I really care about are DRG and SMN upgrades; maybe COR to a lesser degree. All I see is, new jump, 2 new "meh" BPs, and some decent cor rolls that almost put us in the same standing as BRD. I'm satisfied with DRG so far, the level 78 perle set is amazing.
But SMN is pretty terrible so far. The ability "Avatar's Favor" seems to be a back-handed compliment to allowing SMN's pets to stay out longer. Yeah they stay out longer, but they do less damage. I was in an Abyssea party the other day where they just wanted me to keep Diabolos out and give mages refresh; that was my only job x_x. I will say this though, the new BPs that carby/fenrir/diabolos get are pretty cool but I haven't gotten a chance to really use them though.
