This question came up playing this morning. The "War" Hex came up, which reads "Reveal cards from your deck until revealing one costing $3 or $4. Discard the rest". One of our players insists that since they ran out of cards in their deck (did not shuffle) without finding one costing $3-4, they do not have to shuffle the discard and continue. The discard contains Silvers.

The rest of the table agrees that the rule saying to reshuffle when revealing if the condition is not met clearly disproves this. Who is right?

The rest of the table are right, but the cards that have already been revealed do not get put in the discard before the reshuffle.  The revealed cards only get discarded once the condition has been met or there are no more cards left to reveal.

From the base game rulebook:

If you have to do anything with your deck - for example draw, look at, reveal, set aside, discard, or trash cards - and you need more cards than are left in your deck, first shuffle your discard pile and put it under your deck, then do the thing. If there are still not enough cards, you do the thing with however many cards you can. If when shuffling there are no cards in your deck, the shuffled discard pile simply becomes your new deck.

Note that “reveal” is listed.
