Aionsource partnered up with Curse gaming and had a bunch of info added about the game.

[Character]
The character cap has been raised to Level 34 for part 2 of the CBT. Here are the other changes.

Changes
1.HP/MP recovery rate while sitting down has been increased.
2.Death/Resurrection penalties are not applied if killed by an enemy PC, only if the character was killed by a NPC or monster that inflicted higher damage. (Level is not decreased if there are resurrection penalties already in effect.)
3.If 10 seconds have elapsed since taking off for flight, then it is possible to take off again immediately after landing. However, the flight duration and flying gauge recovery period remain unchanged.

[Rifts]
In many parts of Eltnen and Morheim, Rifts will open to allow players to enter the areas of the opposing race. These passages will remain open permanently during the CBT.

1. Rifts are distributed throughout Eltnen and Morheim.
2. Caution is advised when passing through a Rift, as it teleports the character to a random place in the opposing race’s area.
3. Players can return to their own area through a Rift located in the opposing race’s area.

[Abyss Points]
If you have already seen the Abyss Points and the Rank Information in the Character Status Window, then you are probably wondering how you can get these Abyss Points. Abyss Points are earned by entering the opposing race’s area via a Rift and then killing their characters or NPC guards. More ways of obtaining Abyss Points will be introduced in the future.

1. Abyss Points earned can be viewed in the Abyss Tab of the Character Status Window.
2. Abyss Points are not only earned, but can also be lost when killed by enemies in combat.
3. Defeating a higher ranked enemy yields more Abyss Points, and also less points are lost if defeated by a higher ranked enemy
4. If you are a member of a Legion, Legion Contribution Points will increase when you get Abyss Points.

[Stigma]
Stigma Quests can be obtained once Level 20 is reached. Through the use of Stigma Stones characters can change their abilities in a variety of ways, even obtaining additional abilities.

1. Completing the initial quest opens 2 Stigma slots, and subsequently an additional slot is opened every 10 levels.
2. You can obtain Stigma Stones through Stigma Quests once reaching Level 20.
3. There are different Stigma Stones for each class, and each stone’s Active/Passive skills can be checked.
4. Socketing a Stigma Stone uses Stigma Shards, which are obtained as quest rewards at Level 20
5. To obtain more Stigma Shards you must defeat the NPC guards of the opposing race.
6. Other than from quests, more Stigma Stones can be obtained from hunting monsters.

There is more at Aionsource.com, these are just the things I found the most interesting.
