F/R is the way to go... you already know. COE is the way to go. Don't stack Vit on paragon points.
Max your damage and work on play skills. You are a ranged character so be aware that most of the time when your DH dies it is because you decided to get too close to something that has half the range that you do. It takes some experience to know when you absolutely have to stay out of range of something and when you should stutter step around a dense group of monsters, but your play skills will improve if you are thinking about those things while you play.
Edit: Hardcore. Okay you could probably stack some Vit in HC. haha.
Season 9 (the new patch in general) is going to make things better for you as you won't get mobbed by elites at the entrances, etc. Also if you can get a good amount of LOH on one item of gear (along with a decent base of Vitality- lets bump that up to 750k if you are pushing GRifts) that will help a lot. Think of it like this- you want to be able to sustain a few hits without dying, otherwise as long as you are spamming Multishot you will regenerate health very quickly. Now listen to what the HC folks tell you. Good luck.
