People who say the lancer has an instant projectile are not paying attention. I use the lancer quite a bit--the projectile is the second fastest in the game behind the bolt driver, but it does have a perceptible travelling time. For example, if you are oblique or perpendicular to a moving target, you will have to lead them both in terms of your charge up time and your projectile travel time. It is tricky, but if you get the hang of it you can railgun running infantry at medium ranges. Very powerful.
Travel time is especially pronounced when tracking moving air targets.
