Harmony and Knowledge Secrets
By SmokyTopHat
Harmony affects the frequency of Varagies while Knowledge can help you combat that. I've done my own tests on both to obtain information that isn't prevalent in the game.

General Info
The info, experiments, and guide were made using v1.0.0 to v1.0.2. This guide is likely incomplete or may become outdated with further updates, dlc, expansions, etc.

Harmony affects the rate of Minor Varagies in the game but it's effect on the type of Varagies is unknown. Knowledge, using the Council, can be used to combat or predict Minor and Major Varagies. Throughout my gameplay I noticed odd things about Knowledge and I was curious about what actions affected Harmony so I conducted some tests using custom mode and below are the results.
Harmony
Positive Influences

Traveling Caravan Trading = +30
Traveling Caravan Pupil Trade (requires resources for the trade) = ???
Praying to Scared Site = +50


Negative Influences

Destroying a Resource = -20
Plundering a Scared Site = -50
Leaving Behind a Single Resource when Traveling to the Next Halt = -1


Neutral/No Influence

Leaving Behind a Mobile Building
Soothing Auras
Gathering from Protect Resources
Exploring Remains
Knowledge
There's not many secrets for knowledge but I found a nice one at least.

Gain 600 knowledge from exploring the entire Halt
Gain 400 knowledge from the "Help" option from a Traveling Caravan if present
Other Secrets
3+ Protective Auras on a non-corresponding resource results in that resource being protected (need to determine the exact number)

@pelendur Yes, very much so. I always try to leave the resource piles just almost empty to avoid the -20, which is usually around 30 depending the skill of the pupil

so its -20 even if you normally gather it, and then use it?
Would it be better to leave deposits with some ressources left then?

@Pelendur This is when it comes to depleting a single resource completely, not certain what the number would be if you have a quirk that allows you to build on top a fresh new resource

does destroying ressources give flat -20 or 20 per ressource on that field?

Two protective auras were enough for me to deny a resource.
Also, the knowledge from exploring the entire halt is 200 - 400 - 600, depending on the halt size.

I might be wrong on this, but I thought having two protective auras slowing production each by 50% in a non-corresponding resource was what was reducing it to 0% production. It might actually be applying multiplicatively, rather than additively, with a cutoff somewhere above 3--if I get the chance to confirm, I will do so.
