They used to match up with the Tower of Doom Kingdom that week. Like every other weapon for the week that I can remember.

My thoughts are no one bothered to update the placeholder data for the latest doomed weapons @Kafka.

However, there is one such weapon available this week, War & Peace, that is available. This is because we will be removing War & Peace from its quest line due to some changes we will be making to said quest line. It is an exception to this rule, and should be seen as such.

I checked before I tagged a dev. Both weapons said Broken Spire at the time. I’m 98% sure… But yeah Sledge now says Khaziel.  
Tarans info is always the games info. So if his stuff changes, then the game changed as well.

Some good stuff this week. Doomed Sledge is going to see some use, though it has more competition with the brown weapons than Doomed Gavel did with yellow. Lasher looks like a really solid first slot troop, with a fantastic set of traits for an ultra rare, and some decent scaling damage when paired with Dervish class.

Surprise - meaning, it works as intended; day 1? (Haven’t tried, so I’m assuming)

Just standard procedure, IP2 isn’t happy until we are not happy. I’ll open a bug report, after all the clarification that was issued the last time it happened said it was an exception that wouldn’t happen again.

Here we go: [[Investigating] War and Peace in Soulforge](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/war-and-peace-in-soulforge/62975)
