I'd probably go with Snow Raphael, just because you have Sol. That gives you -35% Def -50% Atk without considering Soul skills, so chances are you'll be using Mordred with Ambush.

Notice that damage cuts stack properly, so one argument for Snow Raphael is that with Joan, you can reduce all damage taken by 70% for a turn. This effectively makes you immune to one Overdrive from a boss, which is really valuable.
Ambush comes from Gawain which isn't necessary for any of my legendary Souls. Is it worth spending 200 SP on a single skill?

I just realized D'art is 500 SP. I only have 200. Do I even need D'art at this point? If I do end up getting Raph I could just skip straight to Joan D'arc. Too bad I already wasted SP on D'art's pre-requisites.

Is Mortred's first skill Outrage bad at high levels? Because right now farming Rahab on Expert, that skill is super sweet. Almost doubles my damage each turn.
