Looks like search is disabled so I'll just make a new post.

My rogues end up using high end light armor, and my warriors, no matter the build, end up using Massive. Besides enemies who uses Medium or Heavy armor? It looks like Ogren is supposed to, but I always pour strength into him so he can use Massive and tank.

Any suggestions?

I play on the PS3 and PC on Nightmare.

I often end up in heavy armour even with a warrior. Wades Superior Dragonscale and Evon the Great's Mail are heavy and are excellent armour. Archers never want massive armour as it slows their attack rate.

Medium armour really got the short end of the stick though.

That is something I would like to try: a warrior archer. Is that viable (or even fun)? The only archer I have is a rogue, and the archer seemed more useful for that class given his need to be the lockpicking trapfinder role, and so stay away from the big tanking fight.

Archer warrior is fun and they are the prime users of medium armor (higher armor classes slow their rate of fire) until they learn master archer. Melee rogues that shy from combat can use medium armor so that attackers attack the heavier armor classed members first.

Archer warriors shouldn't be on the front lines though, naturally. They are basically like rogues at that point except they trade the utility for extra health which can come in handy.

Most of the time medium armor is used kind of like daggers are. As a medium until heavier armors and stronger swords can be equipped (I prefer my rogues to be in heavy armor as they can help take the attention of enemies).

In Awakaning you can turn your warrior archer in the deadliest thing. Archers in Awakening are trully overpowered.

My rogue used Wade's medium armor for half of Origins, only switched back to light in Awakening.
