The Oder's powercore is strong enough to fire three razors at once. Personally i prefer gunboats equipped with long-range weapons. To unfold its destructive force and make it capable to defy snubs and caps, i suggest to use a loadout of three cerberus, one pulse and two razor turrets. Make sure you can fire pulse and razors forward and behind. Due to its relative flat shape, your loadout will be an huge advantage in combat. Your flanks however, are less effective and a vulnerable point which shouldn't be turned into enemy fire. | The Oder's powercore is strong enough to fire three razors at once.

Handling
- This ship is too large to use docking bays, it must use mooring points.
Somebody who knows how to use gunboats will definitely love this babe. With proper equipment and training, you will be able to take out almost everything. I've already been ganked by swarms of snubs many times, but could always rip apart some of my opponents in a surprise turn, especially when they fly directly into my arcs - A huge mistake.
The Oder's powercore is strong enough to fire three razors at once. Personally i prefer gunboats equipped with long-range weapons. To unfold its destructive force and make it capable to defy snubs and caps, i suggest to use a loadout of three cerberus, one pulse and two razor turrets. Make sure you can fire pulse and razors forward and behind. Due to its relative flat shape, your loadout will be an huge advantage in combat. Your flanks however, are less effective and a vulnerable point which shouldn't be turned into enemy fire.
Don't use a pure cerberus loadout. Most people tend to do that. It might feel effective in single cases, but soon you will face groups consisting of snubs and caps. In that case you will regret your decision and look like a noob. The same applies to solaris turrets. Seriously, you don't need them on the Oder.
Important is, you realize the Oder's limits and capabilities and adapt your weapon setup accordingly. Especially its suitability as long-range weapon makes it to a pretty cool toy. Timing is the key when useing the pulse/razors combo against snubs and patience when facing caps. It might take a while to disable a battleship, but it is possible. Also make use of your forward gun. It is definitely worth the effort.
My conclusion: A well handled Oder can be a real nightmare. Its lack of agility might be a problem when fighting other gunboats, especially light ones. Due to its strong powercore, it could also need one turret slot more. I recommend to use heavy turrets instead of light ones. And always keep your flanks out of enemy fire.Hardpoints
