			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The winner of the level 64 guild hall amenity poll has been purchased! You can find Aoife Bristlethorn, the guild hunter hireling, downstairs next to her fellow harvesters. She will bring back fish, pelts, and meats (if meats are available from dens in the tier you specify) for your crafting enjoyment!</p>
<p>With our level 64 goal reached, it&#8217;s time to look ahead to our level 66 guild hall amenity; you can find a new poll to the right. :)</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-306" title="Guild Level 60: Guild Event Log" src="http://thehalasianempire.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/gl60_event.jpg" alt="Guild Level 60: Guild Event Log" width="258" height="18" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-304" title="Guild Level 60: Worldwide Broadcast" src="http://thehalasianempire.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/gl60_broadcast.jpg" alt="Guild Level 60: Worldwide Broadcast" width="301" height="13" /></p>
<p>First, I have to say thank you to all the members who helped get us this far. Whether you did one writ or a hundred, you made a real difference. Everyone&#8217;s selfless contributions to the guild and to each other are what make Halasian Empire so wonderful.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-305" href="http://thehalasianempire.com/2009/11/hello-level-60/gl60_cloak/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-305 alignright" title="Guild Level 60: Updated Heraldry" src="http://thehalasianempire.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/gl60_cloak-116x300.jpg" alt="Guild Level 60: Updated Heraldry" width="116" height="300" /></a>With level 60 come a number of great perks:</p>
<ul>
<li>A <strong>new row in each of our guild bank vaults</strong>, which you can access by right-clicking any banker</li>
<li>The ability to <strong>add a pattern to our guild heraldry</strong>, which is modeled by Kharri, to the right</li>
<li><strong>New mounts</strong> available for purchase from stablemasters</li>
<li><strong>New items &amp; titles</strong> available for purchase from city merchants</li>
<li><strong>Three new guild hall amenities</strong>, which were chosen by a poll here on the website:
<ul>
<li><em>Gatherer Hireling</em>: After 2 hours, gives you 200 random common harvests from root, shrub, &amp; lumber nodes in the tier you specify</li>
<li><em>Miner Hireling</em>: After 2 hours, gives you 200 random common harvests from stone &amp; ore nodes in the tier you specify</li>
<li><em>Tradeskill Recipe Salesman</em>: Carries all Essential recipe books for all tradeskill classes</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Hopefully the 60s will be much easier going than the 50s were &#8212; seems like those 10 levels took us forever! We still have bigger and better things waiting for us down the line, though, and our next goal is to reach level 62. We will get one new amenity slot at 62; you can vote on what you think it should be in the poll to the right.</p>
<p>Once again, thank you all, and congratulations! :)</p>

<p>In the overall increase category, Pratt comes in at #30 with 639 points earned, and Phlebas comes in at #32 with 119 points earned. In the percentage increase category, Pratt comes in at #4 with a 63,900.00% increase, and Phlebas comes in at #6 with a 11,900.00% increase.</p>
<p>In other news, we&#8217;ve just dinged level 59! Level 60 is within our sights&#8230; Don&#8217;t forget to vote for your 3 amenity choices in the poll to the right; when we hit 60, the top 3 amenities will be purchased for the entire guild to use!</p>
