Gowhead - a fan-made companion site for Gems of War

Hi everyone,

I’ve been building gowhead for a while and wanted to share it here. It’s a companion site for Gems of War that brings together your progress, teams, guild tools and a lot more in one place. Here’s what’s on it:

Your account. Enter your invite code and the site builds an overview from your own data - stats, pet and kingdom bonuses, collection progress, achievements, Soulforge and more, all in one place instead of digging through in-game menus.

My Progress. It doesn’t just track how far along you are - it works out the cheapest, most efficient way to get further. It looks at what you have and figures out the optimal upgrade path, so you know where to spend your resources instead of guessing. It’s also highly customizable: you can rearrange or hide columns and groups so you see what’s relevant to you. If you’ve got a long list of goals and limited resources, this does the planning for you.

Teams. A collection of teams shared by other players - PvP, events, delves. If you’re stuck on something or just looking for ideas, it’s a decent place to find a team that works.

Guild overview. GMs get an overview of their guild, covering the members who are also signed in to the site. It’s GM only - nobody else in the guild can see it.

Guild Wars. Leaderboards for the current war, plus a comparison with the previous war’s standings so you can see how your guild is doing. There’s also a calculator that tells you how many points you’d get for a win or a loss against a given guild.

Tower of Doom. A shared map your guild fills in together during the event - everyone adds what they find, so the whole guild can coordinate and see the map at a glance.

Soulforge. Right on the homepage it shows the mythics and legendaries you can craft at the moment. And if you’re logged in, it also tells you how many copies of each you already own - or whether you’re missing it entirely.

Card sources. When a troop, pet or weapon comes from a specific source, the card shows it as an icon in the top-right corner - so you can tell at a glance where to actually find it.

Filters. You can filter way beyond what’s possible in-game - by weapon affixes, by troop traits, by shiny levels, and with dynamic filters that combine conditions. Pick the “create gems” filter, for example, and you can narrow it down to exactly which gem colors you’re after.

Notifications. You can get alerts for the things you don’t want to miss - Guild Wars, new content as it lands, and Soulforge whenever a troop you don’t own yet comes up for crafting. On mobile you’ll need to add the site to your home screen first for alerts to work.

What’s new. The site tracks the latest content as it arrives - new troops, pets, kingdoms and weekly stuff. The whole site is available in all seven in-game languages.

There’s more on the site than I can fit in one post - best to just have a look around.

It’s just a hobby project, not affiliated with the developers. If something’s off or you’d like to see a tool added, let me know - that’s part of why I’m posting.

Thanks for reading, hope you find it useful!

Just rehighlighting this, just in case.

Also, just a reminder to everyone, always be careful sharing any of your account information with a 3rd party or a tool that uses your invite code to pull your data.
