==Section ID choice==
==Section ID choice==
Note that the section ID choices below are merely suggestions, and are not required choices for playing HUcaseal. All IDs have tangible benefits, leaving ID selection up to player preference. Below are a few recommended IDs for HUcaseal depending on what type of item coverage is preferred.
===General Recommendations for HUCaseal===
===Finding items for HUcaseal===
<big>{{Purplenum}}</big>
<big>{{Skyly|32}}</big>


Skyly has access to many essential HUcaseal items and an increased rate of finding sword-type weapons, which is important in the early game and for finding Hit {{Sword|attributes|Calibur|Caliburs}} later. Items include {{Sword|rare|Daylight Scar}}, {{Sword|rare|Sealed J-Sword}}, {{Shield|rare|Red Ring}}, and {{Sword|rare|Lame d'Argent}}.
{{Gun|rare|M&A60 Vise}} with high hit attribute is a core HUCaseal item that has many potential sources on {{Purplenum}}.  Vise and {{Cane|rare|Pyscho Wand}} can be hunted together in Caves, often in the same quest.  {{Gun|rare|Frozen Shooter}} and {{Sword|rare|Lavis Cannon}} can be hunted by {{Purplenum}} in the Forest.


===Finding items that HUcaseal hunts well===
The Central Control Area offers a solid hunt for the valuable {{Gun|rare|Heaven Punisher}}, along with the end-game special improving unit: {{Unit|rare|V502}}.  {{Tool|rare|Parasitic Gene Flow}} drops from Ogla Flow on this id, however, {{Yellowboze}} is a competitive ID for hunting this item (Maximum Attack E: Gal Da Val can be a better quest to hunt for PGF on {{Purplenum}} compared to Respective Tomorrow).
<big>{{Viridia|32}}</big>


Hunters are potent boss killers, and Viridia is ideal for hunting bosses as {{Shield|rare|Red Ring}} and {{Tool|rare|Parasitic Gene "Flow"}} are coveted drops which only drop from the bosses at the end of episode 1 and episode 2. {{Gun|rare|L&K38 Combat}} is also an item that can be hunted while hunting bosses.
For Point of Disaster in Episode 4, the Rare Boss, Kondrieu drops {{Gun|rare|Heaven Striker}}, which, like {{Cane|rare|Psycho Wand}}, can be traded to other players for {{Tool|rare|Photon Drops}} to afford better gear for your HUCaseal.  Even a hitless {{Gun|rare|Heaven Striker}} can be worth one or two photon drops while trading with other players.
===General good ID===
 
<big>{{Whitill|32}}</big>
<big>{{Bluefull}}</big>
 
A similar choice to {{Purplenum}}, but the primary hunt this id offers is {{Sword|rare|Vjaya}} instead of {{Gun|rare|M&A60 Vise}}.  {{Sword|rare|Vjaya}} is incredibly strong, but less frequently utilized weapon by players in standard gameplay when compared with other HUCaseal staples like {{Gun|rare|M&A60 Vise}}, {{Sword|rare|Dark Flow}}, or {{Sword|rare|Diska of Braveman}}.
 
{{Cane|rare|Psycho Wand}} can be hunted in the Seabed of Episode 2 from Delbiter.  {{Gun|rare|Heaven Striker}} can be hunted from Del-D in the Ruins of Episode 1.  This ID offers one of the easiest, but least likely to yield success hunts for the highly desirable ranger weapon, {{Gun|rare|Heaven Punisher}} from Hildetorrs (rare enemy) in Episode 1.
 
<big>{{Yellowboze}}</big>
 
Yellowboze can hunt {{Gun|rare|Frozen Shooter}} and {{Gun|rare|Spread Needle}}, {{Gun|rare|Cannon Rouge}} (rare enemy), as well as both {{Sword|rare|Lame d'Argent}} and {{Sword|rare|Galatine}} - two of the best sabers for any class that can wield them.  Other strong items to hunt on Yellowboze include:  {{Unit|rare|V101}}, {{Sword|rare|Daylight Scar}} (rare boss), {{Tool|rare|Photon Filter}}, and {{Frame|rare|Select Cloak}}, the last two being components for {{Tool|rare|Divine Filter}}.  A HUCaseal with this id will likely be spending most of the time in the Mines of Episode 1, and Episode 4 quests that include killing the boss (for chances to hunt {{Sword|rare|Galatine}}, or {{Sword|rare|Daylight Scar}}).
 
<big>{{Whitill}}</big>


Whitill is a powerful ID that gets many coveted and valued items in almost every area in the game. Whitill is the most unrestrictive ID, giving players the freedom to play any content and still have the chance of scoring something big, in contrast to more restrictive IDs such as {{Bluefull}}, which focus players into certain areas. Whitill finds many good items such as {{Unit|rare|V502}}, {{Gun|rare|Heaven Striker}}, {{Sword|rare|Diska of Braveman}}, {{Gun|rare|Frozen Shooter}}, {{Sword|rare|Slicer of Fanatic}}, and more!

HUcaseal.png

HUcaseal is an android Hunter who has the highest ATA of the all the Hunters. Along with access to traps, this gives her the best crowd control ability of all the Hunters, able to use her ATA to land special attacks such as paralysis more often. HUcaseal's ATP, however, is relatively low, especially in comparison to her male counterpart HUcast. She also has less ATP than RAcast, making her damage output something to be desired, but with liberal usage of traps, she is always a valuable asset to any group.

HUcaseal has unique animations for claws, double sabers, fists, and daggers, although only the dagger animation has significant speed benefit over other classes.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Access to powerful Hunter weapons - weapons such as Sword icon.pngDark Flow and Sword icon.pngVjaya allow HUcaseal to do extremely high damage, albeit only in specific scenarios and for high costs
  • Highest Hunter ATA - making it much easier for HUcaseal to use special attacks compared to the other Hunters
  • Access to traps - Trap icon.pngFreeze traps and Trap icon.pngconfuse traps are the strongest crowd control options in the game, giving HUcaseal plenty of tools to turn the tide of battle

Cons

  • Limited effective range - In comparison to Rangers and Forces, Hunters do not have as much area-of-effect range, meaning their effectiveness is lowered if not positioned correctly
  • Low ATP - With only 1,301 maximum ATP, HUcaseal is somewhat weak as a Hunter
  • Identical to HUcast - Despite HUcaseal's extra ATA, her playstyle and offerings are identical to HUcast, who performs much better due to his staggeringly high ATP

Section ID choice

General Recommendations for HUCaseal

Purplenum icon.pngPurplenum

Gun icon.pngM&A60 Vise with high hit attribute is a core HUCaseal item that has many potential sources on Purplenum icon.pngPurplenum. Vise and Cane icon.pngPyscho Wand can be hunted together in Caves, often in the same quest. Gun icon.pngFrozen Shooter and Sword icon.pngLavis Cannon can be hunted by Purplenum icon.pngPurplenum in the Forest.

The Central Control Area offers a solid hunt for the valuable Gun icon.pngHeaven Punisher, along with the end-game special improving unit: Unit icon.pngV502. Tool icon.pngParasitic Gene Flow drops from Ogla Flow on this id, however, Yellowboze icon.pngYellowboze is a competitive ID for hunting this item (Maximum Attack E: Gal Da Val can be a better quest to hunt for PGF on Purplenum icon.pngPurplenum compared to Respective Tomorrow).

For Point of Disaster in Episode 4, the Rare Boss, Kondrieu drops Gun icon.pngHeaven Striker, which, like Cane icon.pngPsycho Wand, can be traded to other players for Tool icon.pngPhoton Drops to afford better gear for your HUCaseal. Even a hitless Gun icon.pngHeaven Striker can be worth one or two photon drops while trading with other players.

Bluefull icon.pngBluefull

A similar choice to Purplenum icon.pngPurplenum, but the primary hunt this id offers is Sword icon.pngVjaya instead of Gun icon.pngM&A60 Vise. Sword icon.pngVjaya is incredibly strong, but less frequently utilized weapon by players in standard gameplay when compared with other HUCaseal staples like Gun icon.pngM&A60 Vise, Sword icon.pngDark Flow, or Sword icon.pngDiska of Braveman.

Cane icon.pngPsycho Wand can be hunted in the Seabed of Episode 2 from Delbiter. Gun icon.pngHeaven Striker can be hunted from Del-D in the Ruins of Episode 1. This ID offers one of the easiest, but least likely to yield success hunts for the highly desirable ranger weapon, Gun icon.pngHeaven Punisher from Hildetorrs (rare enemy) in Episode 1.

Yellowboze icon.pngYellowboze

Yellowboze can hunt Gun icon.pngFrozen Shooter and Gun icon.pngSpread Needle, Gun icon.pngCannon Rouge (rare enemy), as well as both Sword icon.pngLame d'Argent and Sword icon.pngGalatine - two of the best sabers for any class that can wield them. Other strong items to hunt on Yellowboze include: Unit icon.pngV101, Sword icon.pngDaylight Scar (rare boss), Tool icon.pngPhoton Filter, and Frame icon.pngSelect Cloak, the last two being components for Tool icon.pngDivine Filter. A HUCaseal with this id will likely be spending most of the time in the Mines of Episode 1, and Episode 4 quests that include killing the boss (for chances to hunt Sword icon.pngGalatine, or Sword icon.pngDaylight Scar).

Whitill icon.pngWhitill

Whitill is a powerful ID that gets many coveted and valued items in almost every area in the game. Whitill is the most unrestrictive ID, giving players the freedom to play any content and still have the chance of scoring something big, in contrast to more restrictive IDs such as Bluefull icon.pngBluefull, which focus players into certain areas. Whitill finds many good items such as Unit icon.pngV502, Gun icon.pngHeaven Striker, Sword icon.pngDiska of Braveman, Gun icon.pngFrozen Shooter, Sword icon.pngSlicer of Fanatic, and more!

Viridia icon.pngViridia

If the player's primary interests are boss rushes like Towards The Future and Respective Tomorrow, Viridia icon.pngViridia is a good choice. Shield icon.pngRed Ring and Tool icon.pngParasitic Gene "Flow" are coveted drops which only drop from the bosses at the end of Episode 1 and Episode 2. Gun icon.pngL&K38 Combat with high hit attribute is a very potent HUCaseal weapon and highly sought after by other players.

Skyly icon.pngSkyly

Skyly has access to many essential HUCaseal items and an increased rate of finding sword-type weapons, which is important in the early game and for finding Hit Sword icon.pngCaliburs later. Items include Sword icon.pngDaylight Scar, Sword icon.pngSealed J-Sword, Sword icon.pngZanba, Shield icon.pngRed Ring, and Sword icon.pngLame d'Argent. Be warned that Skyly icon.pngSkyly is not always the ideal HUCaseal id, despite it having many items desired by the class. Players who find success with this id for HUCaseal likely have experience and strong middle to late game items at their disposal.

Material and Mag plans

Important Stats Only - Maxes important stats as early as possible. Recommended for leveling.
Min-Max - Maxes as many character specific stats as possible by level 200 using the minimum number of slot units. Recommended at level 200.
Max Stats - Attempts to max all stats at level 200. Ignores any sort of equipment efficiency. Not recommended.

Min-Max** 5/131/64/0 Unit icon.pngV101 Shield icon.pngRed Ring 62 10 - 50 28 -

The ISO* and Min-Max* plans disregard Red Ring as a means of maxing the LCK stat, allowing for swaps to other barriers such as Shield icon.pngKasami Bracer without losing out on crit chance.

The Min-Max** plan does mostly the same, but favors EVP materials over DEF to max out her EVP stat, even without Unit icon.pngV101. This allows her to maximize Estlla on Saint-Milion by stacking four Unit icon.pngProof of Sword-Saint, as well as blocking a good amount of enemies in the game. Alternatively you can also use 0 DEF Materials and 38 Luck materials instead, to have max Luck without the use of Red Ring.

Without V101

Plan Mag Units Shield Materials
Power Def Mind Evade Luck
Important Stats Only 5/128/67/0 - Shield icon.pngRed Ring 115 - - - 35
Min-Max 5/128/67/0 - Shield icon.pngRed Ring 72 43 - - 35

HUcaseal has no Max Stats plan without a V101; it would still require two units, so it's better to use a plan that includes V101 to allow for more equipment usage.
