A lighty armored Dragonborn that also uses two handed weapons can survive effectively without becoming a target practice? yes, just don't stop in front of someone to attack, swoop in swing once, swoop out, swoop in swing once, etc.

Read Barbarian (Oblivion); it's outdated, but the fundamentals are the same.
