There a few things unique about the Lanka as a Sniper; its high punch-through being able to go through walls, and the fact that it is projectile based and not hit-scan. It would be a fun idea of having a Lanka variant that would either- increase in damage (and/or punch-through) with projectile speed, giving a use to that whole stat, or being able to see enemies through walls while scoped in. Having one or the other (or both) in a weapon variant would be fun to see, and a good change IMO for the unchanged Lanka that was introduced in 2013.
