^ not really. Lanka and Opticor are both two different guns. Opticor has the raw damage per shot but Lanka actually outdamages Opticor because of its higher firerate + crit + status. Opticor has IPS, while Lanka is just pure element. That alone makes status on Lanka better than status on Opticor. Opticor has a small explosion aoe while Lanka is more of a linear aoe (5m innate punchthrough).

To me, Opticor is a cannon and Lanka is a railgun. "basically a better Lanka" isn't right, they're both strong in their own ways.
