SE never quite gives enough info, no do they give us all the info on some occasions. Here is a breakdown of the new things added:
Voidwatch: New NPCs have been added, as well as new features in Voidwatch. As I haven't really had time to even mess around with Voidwatch, I can't really say how the new stuff effects this new feature.
Dynamis: Players now have a higher chance of hitting the monsters weakness with certain weapon skills. This is also an unknown to me, considering I haven't set foot in Dynamis sense PA broke. Maybe I'll drag some close friends into it some day.
Grounds of Valor: Page targets have been changed in some zones, check forum for details. Also completion rewards in Outer Horutoto Ruins has been changed. GoV books have been added to King Ranperre's Tomb & Maze of Shakhrami.
Campaign: Max notes & exp gained per battle has been increased, as well as increased per action done with in Campaign. Looks like cap here is around 9k per battle, according to recent posts on FFXIAH.com.
Besieged: Same as Campaign. Max standing & exp has been increased, apparently to cap for exp is now 1/3rd of your base exp needed to level. Of course, more exp/standing per action. The bonus for consecutive victories & defeating notorious monsters has increased as well.
Tarut Card Quest updates, including a new quest.
Certain NPCs have been reposistioned, and text explaining moghouses has been updated.
Shami's brother Shemo has been added next to him in Port Jeuno. You can now trade seals (As in beastmen seals, kindred seals, ect) for higher tier seals. Unfortunitly, when this was previously hinted at, we where hoping the seals they spoke of with armor seals, no burning circle seals. See image below.

Paladin got some upgrades to current abilities, hoping to becoming a good job again.
Corsair's Phantom Roll XI has been given bonuses.
Samurai gets a new move that Dancer's already have.
Ninja abilities that once shared a recast, no longer do.
Blue Mage's 2hour is no longer useless, allowing more skillchains to occure during 2hour.
Puppetmaster's have new attachments.

New NPCs have been added, & equipment sold by npcs has changed.
A few item updates & some added Porter Moogle locations have been added. Porter Moogles have more items that can be stored with them.
System Related: Windows version recieved a higher resolution choice, & Windows & X360 have a more detailed title screen & higher definition icons for player names.

Assorted issues have been delt with. See above link for details.
Over at Wild Dragon Chase, some new .dat files have been added/re:added. Head over there to check out some interesting re-skins as well as what looks to be new BLU spells.

Perhaps something to look forward to in the future.
What was not in this update?
The Seal trading system we want. Damnit SE, make these armor seals tradeable or bazaarable. >.< I keep getting seals for RNG and COR, and neither of those jobs are above level 10. How about having Skillchains granting EXP or a damage bonus, with Magic Bursts giving added damage. Add the ability to skillup in Campaign? Maybe next time, if anyone is listening..
