What Sadist Does

Sadist is a glass-cannon trade: Attack +15%, Defense -15%. On ranged attackers that rarely get hit, the attack is worth more than the defense it gives up — the same logic as the World Tree passive Twin-Edged Holy Blade at a smaller scale. On tanks and melee brawlers the penalty bites every fight. Its inverse is Masochist , and its smaller sibling is Aggressive (±10%).

Splatterina carries it naturally.

How to Get It

Sadist isn't on the surgery menu — it only rolls on wild Pals, so catch a carrier or breed it in via the Breeding Calculator. In the endgame, drawback-free attack passives like Ferocious and Demon God replace it — overwrite at the Pal Surgery Table when the time comes.
