Misfortune befell the army, and it was quickly overpowered by the vast Zamorakian forces led by K'ril Tsutsaroth. An army was formed, and the Armadylean Aviantese were given the task of delivering the godsword so that Zamorak could be destroyed once and for all. The gods reached a conclusion and forged the godsword, a weapon supposedly powerful enough to slay a god. In response, Saradomin forged a triumvirate of gods between himself, Bandos, and Armadyl in order to discuss their battle plans. Years later, Zamorak had gathered an army so powerful it seemed nothing could stop him from achieving victory over the other gods in this war. Afterwards, the Saradominists built a temple around the cave and named it the Temple of Lost Ancients. The last active gods of the God Wars- Saradomin, Armadyl, Bandos and Zamorak-are fighting each other inside this dungeon.Īt the beginning of the God Wars, an extremely powerful Zarosian general known as Nex was imprisoned inside an icy cave by a group of Saradominists. It contains an ancient temple which seems to be one of the last remaining battlefields of the god wars. The God Wars Dungeon is an enormous cavern complex that lies north of Trollheim. This dungeon was followed up by The Heart of Gielinor, often called GWD2. The four primary bosses fought in this dungeon are Commander Zilyana, K'ril Tsutsaroth, Kree'arra, General Graardor who drop tier-70 armour and weapons, and Nex who is best known for dropping tier-80 Torva, Pernix and Virtus armour. The Shard of Zaros also causes the followers of all of the armies to become non-aggressive. Zaros' followers are not as easily calmed the only way to make them tolerant is with the Shard of Zaros, an item obtained from completing Fate of the Gods. Wearing a single item devoted to a god renders his followers completely tolerant unless provoked. Combatants of each god on the main level are highly aggressive to any entity not aligned with their side.

A deeper level, the Ancient Prison, contains a fifth army, that of Zaros.

The foot-soldiers of each army are dedicated to one of four major gods involved in the God Wars- Armadyl, Bandos, Saradomin, or Zamorak. The main level of the God Wars Dungeon contains four different armies. Exploring the inside of the dungeon requires level 15 Agility regardless of Strength level. Reaching the dungeon itself requires level 60 in Strength or Agility (boostable) to navigate the boulder that blocks the path to the dungeon. Navigating towards the dungeon requires having defeated Dad in the Troll Stronghold quest. Its release was announced in the Behind the Scenes of August 2007. The God Wars Dungeon (often abbreviated as GWD), originally known as the Temple of Lost Ancients, is a dangerous dungeon where armies of various gods, left over from the God Wars, fight one another to the death.
