Gas is most useful on weapons with high damage per shot and very high proc chance (as gas damage on its own isn't very great). Gas procs do an AoE of Toxin DoTs. The damage of the Toxin DoTs is increased by headshots, crit headshots get double the damage of normal headshots.

So every weapon that does accurate, high damage crits to single targets and has a high status chance can become a potent AoE weapon with the Gas procs.

It's not just Lanka, Lex Prime for example is also great with a Gas status (+ crit ofc) build, Lanka just has the higher numbers.
