My Orc wields a custom-enchanted claymore (elemental damages, plus weakness to same, plus a dash of soul trap to keep it charged). His enemies don't get close enough for him to need armor for defense.
What he does use is resistance to magic as enchantments to his clothes, so those pesky fire-ball-flinging mages can't get him from a distance. Archers are handled by running over to them so they switch to their daggers, so he's built up his speed for that, and not wearing armor helps.
