Quick Strategy Tips

Full guide

Shambali Monastery winds through the sacred high-altitude temple complex of Nepal, where the payload moves along a mountain path, through monastery courtyards, and into the final inner sanctum. The map features dramatic elevation changes and a mix of open mountain stretches and enclosed temple corridors. Its three phases cover the initial mountain path approach, the monastery outer courtyard, and the final inner temple. The elevation and architecture create unique verticality that rewards heroes with mobility or strong barrier coverage. This is considered one of the more attacker-friendly escort maps.
