Leos are one of the most durable platforms you can buy for silver currency, so you probably need to specify what you mean by "better". The only thing more durable (without using a shield) are Raijins, which make lousy knife-fighters (which you seem to want to replace).

Griffins are very mobile and versitile. You can either go with the PDB, RDB setup without spending gold, and I hear both get used all the way into gold tier. Molots and Punishers have gotten a huge buff, and the Griff can make full use of both as well.

Rhinos seem to get a lot of use too. They can carry the same payload as a Griff, but their shield can guard them while they reload their med-slot weapons and they can make good cappers in assault mode in a pinch. If you get flanked or spammed with rockets though it could go down fast.

Carnage makes a nice hunter if you know how to use it. Problem is how many people use energy weapons now (to say nothing of how fast Punishers can peel it away now), so you'll need to use its speed to flank and ambush. You could always try two Tridents, which could potentially make some devastating hit and run attacks while minimizing exposure.

Another thing you can try is swapping out the Mags for more Pinatas on your Leo for knife-fighting shield bots, or going with a Trident/Pin setup for mid-range assault.

Hope that helps.
