the biggest offset in the FF games, is the level of magic being able to be cast in armour. To say flat out that mages can't wear heavy armour is a false dichotomy. I feel that they would be restricted to their more basic spells, as we see with a Paladin, or soon to be Dark Knight.
The level of spell cast is inversely proportionate to the ammount of armour worn.
