Does anyone else believe that Vampire Hunter needs to be reworked or changed?

I think that roles that depend on other roles aren't that great. It is no surprise Disguiser will get removed. I believe the VH needs some type of buff so they don't only remove Vampires to help the town, while watching the town get destroyed by Mafia and cannot do anything about it except try to lynch them.

Vampire Hunter is also a passive claim. Mafia, and Neutral (excluding Vampires) couldn't care less, as the Vampire Hunter is really useless against them. And the current update doesn't help, it gives another reason by the Mafia shouldn't kill the VH (Vampires can kill Mafia - GF), because they don't possess any threat to anyone except the Vampires, and the Vampires will have trouble killing that threat once one has been confirmed, unless of course, they can find some way to lynch him, or another killer finds a reason to eliminate them.

Also, what happened if the only Vampire leaves the first night? That leaves you as a nerfed Vigilante.

Take SC2 Mafia's |Mason Leader] for example. The Mason Leader can not only kill [|Cultists] (the Cult is SC2 Mafia's Vampire), but invite other Townies to its Mason where they can communicate and work as a confirmed team, even after the Cult is gone. I'm not saying that Vampire Hunter has to be exactly like the Mason Leader, but needs a similar approach where the VH can do something else while the Vampires are alive and after they are eliminated, can continue to have the same function while helping the town rather than being a nerfed Vig.

''' The main point is that I believe that the VH needs some ability to help the Town against the rest of the evildoers, rather than being a role completely dependent on one type of evildoer, the Vampire. '''

Well, just my opinion. Feel free to agree or disagree with me.
