Öland is the Tier VIII Tech Tree ship of the Pan-European destroyer branch and offers only a few improvements over her Tier VII sister Skåne.

The Öland in World of Warships is a distinguished member of the Swedish destroyer line, located at Tier VIII. This line is celebrated for its unique torpedoes, known for their exceptional speed, extensive range, and rapid reloading, albeit with modest damage output. Notably, the Öland is characterized by its lack of a smoke screen, relatively low speed, and the presence of a repair party consumable.

Torpedo Armament: A defining characteristic of Swedish destroyers is their torpedoes, known for their impressive speed and range. These torpedoes are designed for tactical flexibility, enabling Swedish destroyers to engage from a distance, forcing opponents into evasive actions and disrupting their maneuvers. It is worth keeping in mind that with only 6 low-damage torpedoes, captains may be hard pressed to destroy heavyily armed battleships in one go, thus yolos are not recommended. Although their damage potential is relatively low, Swedish torpedoes excel at map control, area denial, and providing crucial screening support for the team.

Anti-Aircraft (AA) Capabilities: The Öland cruiser features relatively impressive AA defenses, further enhanced by its Defensive AA Fire consumable. Its AA suite is renowned for its effectiveness, making it invaluable in safeguarding allied ships from enemy aircraft attacks. The dual-purpose nature of the main guns also contributes to its formidable AA capabilities, making the Öland a potent protector of the skies for the fleet.

Main Armament: In addition to its torpedoes and AA capabilities, the Öland cruiser is equipped with a primary armament comprising four 120mm guns. While they may not match the firepower of some other gunboat destroyers, their rapid rate of fire enables the Öland to engage enemy destroyers and exert consistent pressure on larger vessels. These guns are useful for providing covering fire and engaging adversaries effectively in various combat situations, however 1v1 fights against other destroyers should still be avoided to her lack of ability to disengage quickly.

The Öland's versatility, combining its unique torpedoes, robust AA defenses, rapid firing main guns, and the unique addition of a repair party, makes it a highly adaptable destroyer, capable of fulfilling multiple roles on the battlefield. Its torpedoes are designed for control and disruption, its AA capabilities ensure air superiority for the team, and its main guns provide sustained firepower against a variety of targets. The presence of a repair party further enhances its survivability, allowing it to endure the rigors of battle. This multifaceted approach and tactical flexibility make the Öland a compelling choice for players who appreciate the nuances of destroyer gameplay in World of Warships.

Pros:

  • Very good main battery rate of fire
  • Very fast torpedoes with very good range and a fairly quick reload
  • Excellent AA suite as well as access to the Defensive AA FireWhile active, the damage per second of large caliber anti-aircraft guns is increased. consumable
  • Decent concealment
  • Access to the Repair PartyWhile active, restores a percentage of the ship's health points each second. consumable

Cons:

  • Lacks the Smoke GeneratorWhile active, generates a smoke screen that blocks line-of-sight for both enemies and teammates. consumable
  • Ship speed is lacking for a destroyer
  • Lowest torpedo alpha damage for a Tier 8 destroyer, with only 6 torpedo tubes
  • Very low hitpoint pool
  • Short main battery range

Research

Availability of researchable upgrades for Öland is as follows:

  • Hull: Upgrade to Hull (B) for an increase in hitpoints, AA and maneuverability. Research of this module unlocks progression to Östergötland.
  • Gun Fire Control System: Upgrade to SUO Mk8 Mod 2 for an extra 10% range on the main battery.
Upgrading to the (B) Hull should be priority, as Öland's low hitpool should take any improvement it can get.
