			'''Frequently Asked Questions''' covers common questions about steps, expeditions, and pets. Follow the linked guides for setup instructions and full tables.

	== When do pet bonuses apply? ==		== When do pet bonuses apply? ==
	~~The November 3, 2026 pet guide says~~ bonuses apply ~~only~~ while ~~the~~ pet is active. See [[Pet Bonuses and Effects]].		Pet bonuses apply while that pet is active. Owning several pets does not combine all their bonuses. Every released species can roll all 12 current bonus types. See [[Pets#Bonuses and tiers\|Pets]] and [[Pet Bonuses and Effects]].

	== What do Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 mean? ==		== What do Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 mean? ==
	~~They identify~~ the bonus ranges ~~shown in~~ [[Pet Bonuses and Effects#Current bonuses\|~~the~~ bonus tables]]~~. The listed ranges are~~ at ~~Level~~ 30 before affinity bonuses.		Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 are the bonus's quality tiers. Higher tiers have higher value ranges. They are separate from the pet's level and evolution stage. The [[Pet Bonuses and Effects#Current bonuses\|bonus tables]] show full-power values at level 30 before affinity bonuses.

	== Does +20% Drop Rate add 20 percentage points? ==		== Does +20% Drop Rate add 20 percentage points? ==
	~~The source gives it as~~ a relative increase: a 10% base chance becomes 12%. See [[Pet Bonuses and Effects#~~Relative increases~~]].		No. It is a relative increase: a 10% base chance becomes 12%. It does not become 30%. Equipment chests check higher tiers first, so their final received chances also depend on those earlier checks. See [[Pet Bonuses and Effects#Drop Rate and other boosts\|Drop Rate and other boosts]].

	== Why can my daily steps differ from expedition progress? ==		== Why can my daily steps differ from expedition progress? ==
	~~The~~ current ~~eligibility and~~ syncing ~~rules are awaiting verification~~. See [[Steps and Syncing]].		'''Steps today''' covers the current local day. A new expedition starts from its starting step count, so steps already credited before the run do not carry into it. Solo speed bonuses can change progress per step; co-op contribution uses recorded walking steps. A health app or watch can also take time to finish syncing.

			Sync on '''Home''' before starting, start the expedition before your walk, then pull down on Home when you return. See [[Steps and Syncing]] for permissions, delayed steps, and background updates.

	== How do co-op contributions and minimum shares work? ==		== How do co-op contributions and minimum shares work? ==
	~~These rules are awaiting~~ current ~~documentation~~. See [[Co-op Expeditions]].		For current shared-contribution parties, the usual share is '''60% of the solo step requirement''', rounded up. Every player must reach '''80% of that share''', rounded up, and the party must reach the full team goal. A player can contribute up to '''120% of the usual share''', rounded down.

			For [[Forest Trail]], the usual share is 300 steps, the minimum is 240, and the contribution limit is 360. Two players can finish with '''360 + 240'''; '''300 + 240''' still leaves the team 60 steps short. Older equal-share sessions require the full usual share from everyone. See [[Co-op Expeditions#Steps and completion\|Co-op Expeditions]] for the rules and reward bonuses.
