One exception/situation where this would somewhat be viable, is if you played another class as a plate user, and do not want to buy a second set just to play darkrunner. Overall, my opinion is if you stick only with darkrunner, leather would be better. If they survive your burst, or catch you out in the wild, you'll literally be fried unless you kill them before dying. An argument can be made that if you have a really nice weapon (say over 900 attack on it) that gear type won't exactly matter, but keep in mind that there are magic classes out there. You can make it tanky, sure, but remember that it's offensiveness will go down the more you go tanky. For a class like darkrunner, my interpretation of it is to be a pure dps class that kills others before it gets killed itself. Most people nowadays can get 600-800 melee/magic attack effortlessly, yet there is nothing from plate that will help you against mages (neither years ago, nor now because the gear has stayed the same- obs, delph, ayanad). Years ago our best weapons were t4 obsidian weapons, and physical/magical attack was not crazy. magic, you will get melted by any magic user. While you can get magic defense from costumes and garments, it basically trades your offensive stats for the magic defense. The biggest drawbacks I can think of is that you lose magic defense and the 20% reduced trip duration from leather armor.
