Might be a bit (or maybe a lot) late here, but all levels when increased will increase the primary effect of your NP, and level 2 & 5 will increase the maximum charge, thus increasing the secondary effect. For example, with Saiba's NP, level 2 will be 400% damage, level 3 will be 450% damage, regardless of whether it has 100% or 200% charge. But level 2 will unlock charging the NP gauge to 200%, and level 5 will unlock 300%, allowing you to charge the NP higher, increasing the secondary effect (NP refund).
