On Hard Mode, the two biggest problems you'll immediately face are :

1. Running out of Stamina

2. Sustaining increased damage

Both can be addressed by carrying the appropriate curatives, but being skilled at dodge roll and Perfect Block helps avoid damage.

Stamina is ESPECIALLY an issue when you climb large monsters like Condemned Gorecyclops (even with the Arm-Strength augment), so plan your Arisen's build accordingly.
