Daily bonus schedule
Table
Shindo Life runs a rotating bonus every day of the week. Knowing the schedule lets you decide what to focus on each session. For example, if boss drops are boosted, that is the day to grind the bosses you need bloodlines from.
| Monday–Tuesday | 1.5× RELLcoins |
| Wednesday–Thursday | 1.5× boss drops |
| Friday–Sunday | 2× experience points |
Bloodlines and awakening
Tips
Bloodlines drop randomly when you defeat bosses, and each one comes with its own set of abilities. Once you have collected enough copies of the same bloodline, you can put them through the awakening system to evolve that bloodline's power. Awakening runs on probability, so it may take several attempts.
- Defeat bosses repeatedly to collect bloodline drops
- Stack copies of the same bloodline before attempting awakening
- Expect multiple awakening attempts — success is not guaranteed on the first try
- Check what each bloodline offers and match it to how you like to fight
What to check when you are stuck
Check
If a boss is beating you repeatedly, the problem is almost always one of three things: your level is too low, your equipped bloodline is too weak, or you have not been training skills under your mentor. Work through this list before moving on to a harder area.
- Your level if it is low, farm the same boss tier until you gain enough experience
- Your bloodline a weak one means spending time on current bosses to chase better drops
- Your skill level return to your mentor and learn any skills you have not picked up yet
- Skill and boss matchup use skills suited to the boss's type for better damage
Free-to-play habits that keep you moving

Common questions
FAQDoes it matter which mentor I pick at the start?
Any mentor can carry you through the full game, so you won't lock yourself out of progress no matter who you choose. The real difference is in the skills each mentor teaches, so think about whether you prefer a particular combat style.
What should I do when a boss keeps defeating me?
First check whether your level is high enough, then look at your equipped bloodline and whether your skills are trained up. Boss attribute matchups also affect damage, so make sure your skills suit the fight.
Where do I find gift codes?
The game's official social media accounts and in-game announcements are where codes get released. Enter them quickly through the in-game menu because they expire and each one only works once on your account. The current working codes are listed on this page.
