Mage armor and bound weapons are bad enough. The only thing they'd be sacrificing is movement speed, they'd be lethal at any range and able to tank as well.

I've found plenty of random mages wearing heavy steel plate or dwarven armor!Plus those mercenaries you find roaming around that you can ask where they're going usually have heavy armor and a one handed weapon while using firebolt/ball in the other hand.
