Shindo Life features RPG/Adventure, Dungeons, War, Arena/Conquest, and Competitive. Each mode emphasizes different goals — from leveling and farming drops to objective-based PvP and ranked play.
| Mode | Type | Best for | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
Open-world villages, missions, world bosses, exploration | Mixed | Leveling, learning spawns, hunting bosses with Private Servers | XP, Ryo, scroll drops (sub-abilities, tools) from bosses |
Instanced encounters with waves/boss fights | Co-op | Coordinated farming with friends; focused combat practice | Good XP and Ryo per clear; chance at mode- or item-related drops (varies by dungeon) |
Wave defense and boss phases on a large map | Co-op | Team leveling and long-form co-op grinding | Steady XP/Ryo across waves; boss phases can drop notable items during events |
Objective-based PvP (control points) and team skirmishes | PvP | Practicing match-ups, objective play, learning counters | XP/Ryo scaled by performance; good for live PvP experience |
Fair, normalized PvP with ranking | PvP | Climbing ranks; testing optimized builds and execution | Rank progression; XP/Ryo; seasonal cosmetics may rotate |
Open-world villages, missions, world bosses, exploration
Leveling, learning spawns, hunting bosses with Private Servers
XP, Ryo, scroll drops (sub-abilities, tools) from bosses
Play → RPG/Adventure → choose a village (e.g., Ember, Nimbus, Haze, Dunes, Obelisk)
Run green/orange missions, train on logs, and route world boss timers. Great early game progression.
Instanced encounters with waves/boss fights
Coordinated farming with friends; focused combat practice
Good XP and Ryo per clear; chance at mode- or item-related drops (varies by dungeon)
Play → Dungeons → pick a dungeon; queue solo or with a party
Learn mechanics and burst windows; compositions with stuns/iframes help. Shorter, repeatable runs.
Wave defense and boss phases on a large map
Team leveling and long-form co-op grinding
Steady XP/Ryo across waves; boss phases can drop notable items during events
Play → War
Bring AoE, mobility, and sustain. Communicate roles (adds, boss kite, revive). Best with a squad.
Objective-based PvP (control points) and team skirmishes
Practicing match-ups, objective play, learning counters
XP/Ryo scaled by performance; good for live PvP experience
Play → Arena / Conquest
Play the objective. Coordinate bursts and peel for allies. Custom/Private lobbies are good for scrims.
Fair, normalized PvP with ranking
Climbing ranks; testing optimized builds and execution
Rank progression; XP/Ryo; seasonal cosmetics may rotate
Play → Competitive
Warm up in Customs first. Respect cooldown cycles and stamina/chi management. Mirror matches test fundamentals.
Run village missions and log training early, then farm War or short Dungeons with a team. Ranking up increases EXP multipliers.
World bosses in RPG and some dungeon bosses. Track spawn times and use Private Servers to hop efficiently.
Yes. Competitive uses normalized settings and a ranking ladder. Arena/Conquest focuses on objective PvP and casual team fights.
Solo is fine in RPG for missions and exploration. Co-op shines in War/Dungeons for faster clears and safer boss phases.
From the main menu, choose Play, then pick RPG, Dungeons, War, Arena/Conquest, or Competitive. Some playlists rotate or change with updates.
Notes: playlists, rewards, and drop pools can change with updates; check in-game patch notes or RELL Games posts for the latest specifics.
