I don’t think anyone is going to give you a range in writing as they protect themselves in case of a down year and they are discretionary. Also, % bonus this year is going to be tricky with the base salary increase, no one really knows exactly where bonuses will fall in the “new normal”
Expect prob 60-90%. Depends on the firm, often times it’s just a whisper bonus

MS does a whisper bonus. Have not heard it described as such though - first time i’ve heard that term
Often they’ll give a minimum range for stub bonus amounts, but this late in the year I wouldn’t expect it. If you’re still negotiating the employment agreement, you’re probably looking at best case two months pro-rated. I’d ask for signing bonus commiserate to what you’d expect in this year’s bonus. If asking in general, they won’t disclose the % of base, but you can ask the recruiter for a median of bonuses paid to last years first years (remember their salary was at the old scale, probably $150) to get a closer idea.
