If you’ve been diving deep into Shindo Life, you already know how crucial Bloodlines are to mastering the game. These unique abilities—ranging from powerful dojutsu to elemental and clan techniques—define how you fight, defend, and grow as a ninja. But with over 170 Bloodlines now in the game, picking the right one can make or break your build.
Bloodlines are special abilities that provide you with unique powers inspired by the Naruto universe. They’re categorized into three main types:
| Bloodline Type | Description | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Eye Bloodlines | Visual powers with strong offense and crowd control | Akuma, Rengoku, Jokei |
| Clan Bloodlines | Hereditary techniques unique to ninja clans | Shizen, Kenichi, Narumaki |
| Elemental Bloodlines | Manipulation of natural elements | Fire, Lightning, Ice |
While Eye and Clan Bloodlines tend to dominate the meta, a few Elemental Bloodlines have risen in value due to their speed and combo potential.
How to Get Bloodlines
You can obtain Bloodlines through spins, which are available from missions, events, or codes from RELLGames.
- New players begin with 15 spins.
- You can unlock up to 4 Bloodline slots (two default, two purchasable).
- For efficient progression, save your spins for special events with increased drop rates.
