Player Opinion
Performance
Warning. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.
For a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".
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.
Out of the box Öland seems like an underarmed ship. Her main battery count is the lowest of any Tier VIII destroyer (on par with Ognevoi) and six torpedo tubes in total makes her the undisputed lowest in that regard. However, Öland has the means to make up for the deficient numbers. For one, her main battery offers a high rate of fire with each gun firing 24 rounds per minute, before upgrades are being considered. This gives Öland a competitve dpm compared to her peers. What remains lackluster however is the low main battery range, although this could be compensated for using the captain skill Main Battery and AA Expert.
The torpedo armament is not only the lowest in tube count, but also the lowest in Alpha strike, with every torpedo hitting for just a little over 10,000 damage. This rules out the usage of these in the hopes of devstriking larger targets unless a lucky magazine detonation saves the day. What the torpedoes lack in hitting power they do make up for in speed and range. A long range of 12km and 76kn speed make these very comfortable to use, although the torpedo reload in comparison to the torpedo count is rather long.
In regards to her survivability Öland has many hurdles to overcome. Her hitpool is the lowest of any Tier VIII destroyer and what makes matters very complicated is the lack of the Smoke Generator consumable, making ever single mistake very costly. Thankfully, Öland comes equipped with the Repair Party
consumable to restore some lost hitpoints, but this tool can not help Öland when caught out in an unfortunate location.
High continuous AA values, a good amount of flak, as well as access to the Defensive AA Fire consumable with no trade offs mean that Öland can be a costly target to strike for an aircraft carrier. Unfortunately Tier X carriers will still be able to overcome Öland's defenses and hit her hard, which given her low hitpool will make every bomb, rocket or torpedo hit a painful loss.
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 Fire
consumable
- Decent concealment
- Access to the Repair Party
consumable
Cons:
- Lacks the Smoke Generator
consumable
- Ship speed is lacking for a destroyer
- Lowest torpedo alpha damage for a Tier 8 destroyer
- Very low hitpoint pool
- Short main battery range
