The Golden Crusade Spirit of Harmony Optimizer is a spreadsheet designed to show you how to use your Spirit of Harmony to get the most gold for them.
Find The Golden Crusade Spirit of Harmony Optimizer on The Consortium Forums
Features
- Breaks down the valuation, in gold, of Spirit of Harmony for each craftable that can be sold on the Auction House
- Quickly tells you the most profitable use of your Spirit of Harmony for each profession (includes purchases as well)
- Auto populates prices based on data gathered from The Undermine Journal with XML, CSV, and IQY support
Instructions
- Download the latest version of the file (found towards the bottom of this page) and save it on your computer.
- Log into The Undermine Journal and download the Market Data for your realm in the format of your choice (XML, CSV, IQY).
- Insert the data file into the relevant tab (XML goes into the XML tab, CSV into the CSV tab, IQY into the IQY tab). You only need one of the three data options, and the spreadsheet will prioritize XML>CSV>IQY. For detailed instructions to insert each data type see below.
- Open the tab “Optimizer” and you will be presented with the main features of the spreadsheet. On this page you are presented with all the ways you can use your Spirit of Harmony. The spreadsheet tells you what the gold value of a Spirit of Harmony is in each application. The higher the better.

I made use of your original GC shuffler to create a spreadsheet similar to this a little while back. It has imperial silk, sha crystal, scroll of wisdom, ironpaw token, a farm guide, and a few other interlinked optimizers. Feel free to use it if you are looking to make any updates :)

Yea I saw yours but I’ve been sitting on this for a while figured I might as well release it haha.
I ended up not doing things like Imperial silk and Scroll of Wisdom since they had much better ways to get them without Spirit of Harmony and they can’t be sold on the AH so valuation was too difficult
