In addition to the hoards of adjustments and new content promised thus far, the fast-approaching July version update will boast numerous overall improvements including an upgrade to the /bell command added this past April and scrumptious new synthesis recipes that will leave streets drenched in adventurer drool.

More Bells and Whistles for the /bell Command!
http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics...755/4755_3.jpgThe /bell command added in the April version update will be expanded to allow two full octaves, including sharp and flat notes, to be played. From full-scale hand bell orchestras at Vana'dielian weddings to solo performances of your favorite tunes on street corners, the possibilities are limited only by your imagination!

Enhanced Ebisu Fishing Rods!
http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics...755/4755_6.jpgThe ebisu fishing rod, looked upon by many as the mythic weapon of the angler community, is set to be on the receiving end of a potent upgrade. From the July version update onwards, wielders of this mighty king among fishing rods can expect an even bigger haul after a day at their favorite fishing spot.

Curry Favor with Curry Buns!
http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics...755/4755_9.jpgIn response to popular demand from fans at the official 2008 festival event in Japan, it is with great pleasure that we announce "curry buns" as one of the latest additions to the diverse food synthesis menu. Be sure to pack a few in your gobbiebag before you head off on that next big adventure!

Drool? Isn't that a bit of an over-statement?

UPDATES TO /BELL FUCK YEAH

**Rocl** · 2009-07-17 05:09

You beat me Septimus nooooooooooo

This is the first update notes I am upset about.

**CubsWoo** · 2009-07-17 05:11

Ebisu upgrade? Didn't expect that. From the update I'll guess Ebisu allowing you to break the 200 fish cap per day. Here's hoping for an additional boost in wearing down fish/increasted bite rate on top of that to not make hitting that new cap take too much longer.

**Crysten** · 2009-07-17 05:12

I CANNOT CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT GUYS SRSLY

**orson** · 2009-07-17 05:12

Grats to the 3 people who have bothered to get Ebisu Rods......

Hopefully Curry Buns will be decent.

**Fridell** · 2009-07-17 05:16

BOOOOOOOOOO and fishers getting more rich, cool.

**Corrderio** · 2009-07-17 05:17

This has got to be the gayest thing ever in the history of XI updates.

**Virtuous Saint** · 2009-07-17 05:20

Anyone who uses /bell command needs hit in the head with a hammer. Actually anyone who plays this game in general including myself, but those who use that command especially. They have no clue what people want I am pretty sure.

Yeah, this is disappointing especially as the last news before an update. Good lord.

It's not a matter of being bothered to get them, it is a matter of being lucky enough to get them. On Mog Bonanza they put the items to get the fishing rod in the same category as 10,000,000 gil, Black Belt, and Tier 4 ZNMs bodies. (OK, yeah also Joyeuse is in the same group, but my point stands.)

Don't you mean more stuff that you could cook if they actually had decent stats. And if we go by past items...

**EdgeMoragan** · 2009-07-17 05:24

This... can't be real. It just can't be -_-

Is it July Fools in Japan?

They're slow-rolling the bigger update for a bombshell on Monday. I remember when Diabolos was released, they only announced it on update day, about 6 hours before the servers went down.

**Corrderio** · 2009-07-17 05:26

And here I was hoping they'd reveal the avatar info so I can see if my friend or me were right on the upcoming avatar (Or if we were both wrong). But no I got a friggin /bell command -.-

**Riki** · 2009-07-17 05:26

oh god...
this is fish ranking and Pankration updates all over again.

**Corrderio** · 2009-07-17 05:26

Double Post. Sorry

**finalfabio** · 2009-07-17 05:28

**Cream Soda** · 2009-07-17 05:29

Just the other day I went to Selbina to enter Fish Ranking. The whole way there, I was disgusted with myself for participating in an event I scorned so heavily in the update note threads.

Then, when I got to Selbina, I was informed the Fish Ranking was closed. It was the two weeks of "pick up your prize!", so in a way, Fish Ranking won. It beat me, and now it needs an update in honor of such.
