Which of these matter for a purpose is a ranking, not a list: best combat passives, best work passives and best movement passives sum the stated percentages and nothing else. Active skills are the attacks a Pal uses, and partner skills are the third system — the ability a Pal brings when it fights beside you, rather than a trait it is born with or rolls.

19 passives have no equivalent anywhere else in the table — no bigger version, no smaller one, nothing else that touches the same number. That makes Babysitter, Heavily Armored, Logging Foreman, Mine Foreman, Philanthropist, Reload Master, Wellness Watcher, Explosion Immunity, Extended Dodge Invincibility, Jump Power Boost, Toxic Gas Immunity, Hallowed Guard, Hallowed Power: Close Range, Hallowed Power: Magic, Hallowed Power: Ranged, Hallowed Power: Summon, Mercy Hit, Night Owl and Party Pal Trust Boost straightforward to judge: you either want the effect or you do not.

A passive is not fixed at birth: the Operating Table can apply one directly — 54 passives in its menu, priced in the files from free to 50,000 gold plus an implant.
