I dont think seperating the spirit from the heart is the only way to kill a god, as many of the original Et'Ata (like Tsun) died when they became the Ehlnofey, the earth bones.

Lorkhan was unique, as he was the first to die and his heart granted Mundus with a special kind of divinity and allowed the other Et'Ada to leave without it becoming unraveled.
