HUnewearl stat-maxing help

[Sillen]

Hey,
This topic is similar to what @EricPimpi posted not to long ago, but that didn't quite answer my questions.
I know she can't be completly maxed but I'm looking for your opinion. I think I will run with one ADEPT. Then the question is how many slots I want free and if BOVN is worth or not?

Only ADEPT:
Armor: BLUE ODOSHI VIOLET NIMAIDOU
Shield: RED RING
Units: ADEPT
Mag: 5/132/63/0 @ LV 200
Mats: 50 left
- 64 Power
- 18 Def
- 38 Mind
- 30 Luck
--------------------------------
All stats maxed out except:
MST: -186
EVP: -135

ADEPT+Cent/Ability:
Armor: BLUE ODOSHI VIOLET NIMAIDOU
Shield: RED RING
Units: ADEPT, Centurion/Ability
Mag: 5/138/57/0 @ LV 200
Mats: 50 left
- 43 Power
- 3 Def
- 89 Mind
- 15 Luck
--------------------------------
All stats maxed out except:
MST: -54 (132 more MST)
EVP: -105

ADEPT+V101 no BOVN:
Armor:
Shield: RED RING
Units: ADEPT, V101
Mag: 5/135/60/0 @ LV 200
Mats: 50 left
- 54 Power
- 11 Def
- 62 Mind
- 23 Luck
--------------------------------
All stats maxed out except:
MST: -123
EVP: -120

What do you guys think?

BOVN is really good cuz one of the one free slot. The reason i went for the Double Adep its because the difference between 2x Adept vs Adept/Cent is really minimum stat wise while u get more resistance and less tp consumption. Besides that, keep in mind that HUs are almost slaves to Smartlink so most of the time that thing is going to eat one of your slots.

When it comes to prioritize mst or not, thats up to the player. I honestly think (my personal opinion) that HUney doesnt really need to invest more MST. The difference u get with more MST is something that you wont feel at ease. The point of HUney is the lvl 20 support techs. How much dmg u do with ur techs is going to be irrelevant anyway so I prefer investing the remaining points on EVP which can do a lot of difference (you can try EVP calcs to see what Im saying). Also you can CAP EVP if u sacrifice MST but no the other way around... So when you are building the HUney, take all these things to mind.

The V101 path is also good because u have more freedom in Gear and since u can CAP the important stats anyway, the difference wont matter. But now V101 is a must in your gear so its up to you to decide between being slave to BOVN or V101.

Hope it helps.

I'd go adept + v101
That way you're not stuck with BOVN as your only armour, and you can swap between something like aura field and sacred cloth without losing the attack speed (or having to use an extra slot to get that speed back).
That leaves you with 2 free slots, 1 of which will 99% most likely be smartlink, and then 1 slot for free/situational use (v501/502, cure unit, pb unit, etc). Could even throw heavenly/mind in there just to give you that mst boost

Personally id skip adept as well. The most important unit for Huney is smartlink imo (and v101 if youre not using BOVN). Then you can use 2 unit slots to switch around adept/PoSS/cure units/v502 depending on which quest/episode you pick.
I.e. pick ep2 and you have hell weapon. then pick v502 and some other unit.
If you have adept in your plan for the ATA, then your plan depends on that adept too much, but thats just imo

Thanks for all the input for far, I know for sure now that I don't want the ADEPT+Cent/Ability build
Also first time playing hunter on BB so it's good to know that smartlink is that important.

I was kinda focused on BOVN but you still need one unit to max out atp/def/luck. But ofc only V101 is possible:

Only V101:
--------------------------------
Shield: RED RING
Armor:
Units: V101
Mag: 5/95/100/0 @ LV 200
Mats: 50 left
- 99 Power
- 16 Def
- 7 Mind
- 28 Luck
--------------------------------
All stats maxed out except:
MST: -243
EVP: -130

The V101 is possible but truth is theres no need for so many open slots. Most of the time with 2 slots open for utility(V801, V502, Cure/Freeze) is all u need to setup for any kind of mission. So having 2 slots slaved for stats (V101/Adept) is something ok and lets be honest, Adept not only helps with stats and ATA but the other bonuses are really nice. But yeah its up to you what you end up choosing and what you prioritize most.
