How is it? Is it effective at all? More effective than light/heavy armor? I want to use it but I don't want to get steamrolled at level 30 (on Master).

Here's the build if it'll help:

It's basically a Redguard Battlemage-Berserker thing. I'll cast a flesh spell + lightning cloak, then charge in with dual scimitars. I'm expecting to take a lot of damage which is why I'm worried. I'll also be using Wards when I'm fighting mages and Dragons.

Any help is appreciated :3
