Reward: Skill 2 Upgrade: Masochistic Nature A > Masochistic Nature A+

Masochistic Nature A gets an upgrade in rank to A+. The taunt and DEF boost effects are unchanged. The skill gains an HP-dependent ATK boost, which will only have an effect when Passionlip's HP is at 50% or below. The effect becomes greater the lower her HP, and also scales with skill level. The highest possible boost to ATK she can achieve is +50% ATK (which is a pretty hefty bonus) at 1 HP. However, this does require her to have already taken damage, so its effect is not entirely reliable and may require the usage of Guts skills / Mystic Codes / CEs to take full advantage of. However, it is still an interesting addition to her kit, and is...a "suitable" effect for her skill's name.

Commentary

Unlock: Clear Agartha, Ascension 2, Bond 3

Reward: NP Santa María - Drop Anchor A > A+

Rider of Resistance gains a +100% damage multiplier for his Noble Phantasm post-Interlude, plus a boost to the Critical Rate debuff on all enemies from 20-60% (based on overcharge) up to 50-100%. His damage unfortunately still remains on the low end, although the boost is still welcome. His status as a Story-locked 3* Servant can make reaching NP5 for him a bigger ordeal than for other Servants, as well. Regarding his other change, Critical Rate debuffs have a somewhat underwhelming benefit, particularly since the base of 20% is more than enough to essentially remove Criticals from most enemy mobs aside from Assassins (or some enemies that have Critical Rate buffs), making this buff more of a minor added bonus than a game changer.
