I almost never use the black hunters until I have lots of gold stored up or coming into my kingdom. And when I do use them I make sure they travel with some strong mages to provide increased bonuses for their survival.

Also the rider of the black hunter is not that useful... it's the huge spider which lives a much longer time afterwards. Yet as mentioned earlier these only appear Mid and Late game for my armies.
