i'm using 2 energy layers base 3% and special 12% HAM 15/15/5 and 1 kinetic base 4% special 4% and HAM 11/11/11
i then get segments of base 22%, HAM 55/55/58, energy resist 24%, kinetic resist 28%

You are overshooting on the energy.
The following depends on your materials:
I use 2 energy layers at 4base/7en and one stun layer at 3base/10stun
You dont need to use kinetic layers as kinetic is by default a special resist in Hunting armor ( I tend to use stun, but Blast for FS grenade grinders is also good)
My segments are 29base/15kin/15en/10stun <=see the big difference with your segments?
You are spending points in getting your special resists way to high since you are capped at 80, try to raise the base on the layers instead.
In experimentation I max base (the middle line) in both the segment and the finished piece. Special resists will, like composite, be raised by experimenting on the base in the finished piece(note this only applies to the default special = kinetic).
This segment gives me 10stun/80kin/80en/64base finished Hunting armor.
A big help is to get hold of "Armorsmiths little helper" (newest version is v0.6)
Its an excel spreadsheet where you can plug in your resources, and try different experimentations on layers/segments/armorpieces without actually using your in game resources

Yeah, the resources are really important.
Try using the AS little helper to find out how best to reach your goals.
Trying to reach 80kin/80en/60base is a good start.
Your base needs another 6pts to get there, have you tried triple energy layers with max base on all three?
You could also use another layer type that you have good resources for and up the base as much as you can. On my Server I have very good blast reources so I've used that onoccasions. Again AS Little helper can show you where to put your experimentation points for max effect
