Shao expedition prequest (China / Shaolin)
Shao (added August 2026) lives in the Shaolin Temple in China. You reach China from Rebirth 12 through Spinel's World Tour. A five-part Shaolin quest line is required before the expedition, and World Tour drops you at the Mount Song entrance, so it can't be skipped.
Requirements
- Level 150+, Rebirth 14+ (China itself opens at Rebirth 12).
- Party: 2–12 players. Weekly: five clears. Reward: 60 Perfect Pitch per clear.
- Quests: the new five-part Shaolin quest line.
- Weekly runs: 5 per week. Type
@weeklyin-game to see how many you have left.
Walkthrough
Tips
- The Sutra Depository floors 1–10 are RB12+ training maps. EXP depends on the highest rebirth in the party (100% up to RB49, dropping to 10% at RB170+).
Needs in-game check
The Discord guides don't settle these yet. If you know the answer, please update data/sections/bosses/shao.md.
