Review needed: Some details on this page still need confirmation. See the notes below.

Pet bonuses apply only while the pet is active. This page adapts the Pet Bonus and Effects guide updated November 3, 2026. Numerical ranges are preserved exactly from that document.

Current bonuses

Ranges show full-power values at Level 30, before affinity bonuses. T1, T2, and T3 mean Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3.

Scroll sideways to view all tiers.

Potion Boost Strengthens Health, Rare Find, and Monster potions. Does not extend duration or improve XP brews. 4-6% 7-10% 11-15%

Guild Chalice Boost Strengthens the temporary bonuses from active guild chalices for you. Does not activate a chalice. 5-10% 12-22% 25-35%

Levels and affinities

The source lists these points for bonus strength:

Pet level Share of full-power bonus
1 60%
15 80%
30 100%

A matching affinity adds 2 percentage points to the matching bonus at full power. For example, a matching 10% bonus has 12% potential at full power.

The exact rule between the listed levels and the order of affinity and level calculations still need confirmation. The source's phrase “highest potential” at Level 1 also needs clarification.

Relative increases

Drop Rate: a 10% base chance with +20% Drop Rate becomes 12%. It does not become 30%, and does not guarantee a drop or a higher rarity.

Guild Chalice Boost: a 20% boost makes an active +10% chalice effect +12%. It applies to your own benefit from the active chalice.

Legacy bonuses

The source identifies these as bonuses from before v8.5.2 that can still appear on older pets.

Scroll sideways to view all tiers.
Legacy pet bonus ranges
Bonus Effect Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Egg Luck Adds to the chance of getting an egg from an expedition. 1-2% 3-5% 6-9%
Discovery Boost Improves the chance of finding expedition discoveries. 3-6% 7-12% 13-20%
Monster Loot Increases coins and XP awarded for defeating monsters. 3-6% 7-11% 12-18%
Daily Bonus Increases coins from daily check-in only. 8-15% 16-25% 26-40%

Unlocked bonuses reroll from the current table. Egg Luck, Discovery Boost, and Monster Loot were consolidated into Drop Rate. Daily Bonus was replaced by Coin Bonus. Tier Locks can preserve legacy bonuses during spellbook rerolls.

Rerolling and fusion

The source says Pet Spellbooks can change bonus tiers; a better result is not guaranteed. Fusion Catalysts combine pets into a new one. A Tier Lock keeps one bonus locked during spellbook rerolls and does not apply to Fusion Catalysts.

Details awaiting confirmation

  • Which expeditions are eligible for Expedition Speed and exactly how it affects co-op contribution.
  • The complete list of eligible Drop Rate rewards and its interaction with other bonuses.
  • Whether CRIT and Encounter Find are additive percentage points or relative increases; the source does not specify.
  • The precise meaning of a Tier Lock preserving a bonus: type, tier, rolled value, or some combination.
