In my opinion, the hunters are the least effective class in the VOG. They are good.... but by far the weakest of the 3 classes. I prefer it when a warlock sunsinger is holding the Relic, because if he is killed he can self revive and pick it straight back up again. This is handy in all PVE situations, especially nightfall's or VOG on hard. The Warlock voidwalker can also wipe out huge amounts of enemies in the VOG due to doing void damage and having an extremely large AOE super. The solar grenade when using thesunbreakers is amazing for closing off choke points. The void grenade for the voidwalker is great as well for this, it does not last as long, but the extra damage to praetorian shields is a huge advantage. Titan Defenders are arguable the most effective class in the VOG, they do void damage so you take down shields in the VOG fast. They can also defend the entire team & safely revive team mates under fire. Strikers also have the ability to wipe out huge groups of enemies. The hunters golden gun is good...... however anyone with a raid weapon, such as atheons epilogue, vison of confluence, fatebringer, praedyths revenge, praetorians foil etc.... will be able to take out an oracle just as fast as a hunter. Also they are the only class that does not have any sort of support perk with either of their classes. Warlocks can reduce the cool downs of those around them, and titans can shield them. Hunters can't really do anything to support. Also hunters are currently the only class without a void based subclass, so they have to rely on void weapons in the VOG. Not much of an issue, however it does weaken their standing in the VOD. I know plenty of hunters who are great at this game, however their titan defenders and warlocks are far more effective in most PVE scenarios.
