I feel you there. My team tends to glitch them now, just because we have done it enough that we don't want to spend any more time in there than we have to, but the first few times we went through the legit way. Hunters are far from useless though. While titan has the defense bubble to protect, and warlocks can self revive (which is why people say those two, primarily the warlock, are the only useful ones), the hunter has the best maneuverability and the ability to cloak, which makes them great for running with the shield. All 3 classes are equally useful in the VoG, but more so it comes down to the player behind the character. Its too bad you aren't on the 360, you would probably fit well with my team.
