+Def -HP or +Atk -Def Brave Hector

Just a quick question, I was able to summon two Brave Hectors in a single session as a throwaway (so happy! :D) but can't decide which IVs will be best for a Brave Hector; +Def -HP, or +Atk -Def?

While not my main team, my Armour Emblem consists of a neutral Brave Ephraim, a +1 Black Knight, a neutral Hardin (although likely replaced with Brave Hector) and +Def -Spd male Grima.

Looking at GamePress, it will seem that having -HP is better than -Def, but with my Black Knight with Steady Stance 4 (yes I killed Surtr, go judge me!) and Vengeful Fighter, plus the +Def Grima, I am not sure if it is best to sacrifice some defense for some attack with Brave Hector.

What will you guys say is the best course of action? +Atk -Def? +Def -HP? I could even merge one of the two together.

I would go with the +def -hp one, since I myself have a +def -atk Brave Hector, and he still murders everything that is physical, only dying to magic units. Plus when ignis procs it's a lot more dmg, plus Brave Hector has a superboon in def which makes it very worthwhile. Also I have a +atk -def Grima and trust me, the minus in def hurts a lot when it comes to enemy phase tanking which is what he was made for.

I would use the +Def one personally, he jumps into the 175 BST bin with the superboon in defense, plus his defense is still very valuable to him.
