Interesting that since Daikyu (the bow) came out, I re-play my Lanka and it feels almost like Daikyu's long-lost twin brother. Well, not quite, but both are charge-based weapon, the Daikyu plays more on status proc area, while Lanka could also be made to play in status proc too. Lanka deals primarily electricity and with my dual stat mod, it gives a close competition in terms of dealing status proc against Daikyu. The only differences is obviously Daikyu doesn't "have" reload while Lanka does, and it also deals with mag capacity. Testing with damage against several enemies, Daikyu wins but Lanka is not bad too. Lanka wins in terms of follow up shots and if we want to stricly plays with elemental damage only, Lanka is the winner in this one. Daikyu feels weird because the animation it does when switching weapons, doing quick melee, and when I'm stumbled.

Oh, I don't say which one wins, but for me when Daikyu came out, it vaguely resembles my old dust-collector gun that once I like soo much :) Sure, there was Opticor, but that was like a handheld laz0r cannon :D Still, Opticor does plays closer to Lanka than Lanka to Daikyu. All in all, it's just my opinion.
