Is the wording I'm looking at and I can't find anything official to rule either way other.
If a Zealot Barbarian dies and there is no body, is True Resurrection therefore free for them or does it retain the 25k component cost as it would need to not only resurrect but also create a new body?
Warrior of the gods specifically references raise dead which can also neutralize poisons and diseases. It would make sense that spells that remove other obstacles to resurrection (such as no body) for the purpose of restoring life are equally compatible.
To me True Ressurection is a spell that has the sole effect of restoring to life and therefore Warrior of the Gods should allow the spell to be casted on a Zealot Barbarian without material components.
This was the point I was discussing with the DM - that if the spell did more than purely bring someone back to life, that it would have a cost. But as far as I can see, all resurrection spells do more than "soley" restore to life which would effectively mean that all resurrection spells would have a cost for a Zealot.
Trying to work out where the line is on soley BUT is the difficulty. Eg- Soley But cures disease. Soley But restores a limb. Soley But creates a new body. It feels an all or none thing.
Yeah it's a good thing Warrior of the Gods references raise dead otherwise you'd be left with Revivify as one of the only spell that doesn't cure diseases , poisons etc while restoring life.
So it's not clear what they intended sole effect of restoring to life to mean exactly, but it seems like any spell with the primary purpose to restore life is eligible, even if it also does other things.
*The sole effect of restoring you to life.*

But as always, check with the DM.
