So someone with half a brain and not a redcoat will stand there saying "hmmm giant laser cannon that takes 3 seconds to charge... Naw, no need to move". Unless he suddenly gains the ability to shot rapidly, all he'll be good for is grunts who are too stupid to be human. It's not about the moving speed, even though that is a big part of it. Its his shooting speed as well. Also, if he does shed his armor, what good is a giant cannon if you cant stand long enough to use it.
