Personally, though I do not have a legionnaire[or any hero class], I seen enough of them to say this. Legionaire is better equipped to be a more versatile both inside and other the cades, as it can brawl with the nords pretty easily outside the cades, then retreat to cades to either throw, slash [as well as a commando], or backup shield. It has more options and isn't trapped to doing nothing besides healing [even then someone else may already be doing it] or standing around. If you want to fill in multiple roles as needed the legion is best equipped for this in my opinion.
Anyway, some additional light armors wouldn't be harmful.
