The two plasma weapons are there in case you take damage to one. If you
put a CC weapon in the other one (common tactic) and take damage to the
one plasma weapon you now have a hard to kill statue. More importantly it
gives you flexibility. If you need to reach out and kill something FAR
away or with VERY good armor then use the Destructor. If a large number
of targets are closer with lower armor then use the Cannon. Gives you
options that only one weapon doesn't and you wouldn't be able to use the
other weapon anyhow.

Jason used a nice Reaver combo on me last night. Two turbos and a
volcano. Three Turbo and one Volcano on a Warlord might be something.
