Weapon Loadouts
- Main article: Category:Lanka Build
See the user build section for builds using this weapon.
Notes
- Deals no damage when shooting through Vauban's 3rd ability: Bastille. (Bug?)
- Shooting through Volt's Electric Shield will turn bullets into hitscan (will immediately hit target after hitting shield). (Small bug sometimes when E.Shield change back to Original color, it won't able to shoot through)
Tips
- Adding a rank 2 Wildfire will give you 2 extra bullets, a rank 4 Magazine Warp will give you 3 extra bullets. Combine Magazine Warp and Wildfire for a total of 15 bullets in the clip.
- Turn up ingame sound, there are no visual guidance for the charge timer before each shot can be fired.
- A visual indicator has been added in Hotfix 8.1.3.
- Equipping elemental mods such as Piercing Hit or Hellfire scale extremely well with this weapons base damage (250) and can quickly make up for this guns weaknesses.
- All "charge weapons" (guns) are now capable of holding their charge during a sprint, and as long as the user starts the charge, they are able to finish charging while they are still sprinting. This allows the user to charge the weapon before they go running around and is then able to unleash their first shot at first sight of an enemy. Charging the weapon while sprinting also allows the user to be more mobile on the battlefield in between shots.
- Using elevators and opening coop doors also does not cancel the charge, however hacking consoles and opening lockers will.
- Sliding when you are about to hit the ground (from any height) is very useful for keeping your charge instead of losing it by rolling.
- While wall running will not cancel the charge, edge grabbing will.
Trivia
- The Lanka uses the Snipetron model & skin.
