Yes, but you can use Will of the West to shuffle your discards back in your deck. Then use Dwarven Tomb to get Will back.

I really don't think WotW is a broken card that needs an errata. There are several treacheries (and Shadow effects I think) that eliminate event cards or spirit cards from the hand (not to mention random discards, etc.). It's a good card, but not so good that it or Dwarven Tomb need an errata (especially if one isn't using proxies or multiple core sets).

The problem is that you can easily set up an infinite loop using WoW. With, in particular, threat reduction cards included in that loop, you can set yourself up such that everything is very easy.
