Tips and Strategies

How to Beat Oda

Play It Safe How to Beat Oda
Depending on your playstyle, this fight can be a bit annoying. Oda has fairly high resistances and will heal himself after you deal enough damage. If you're the hacking type, lower his resistances and the amount of RAM Quickhacks take with Breach Protocol, then smack him with some Quickhacks when you have the RAM for it.

Oni Mask

Oda's Oni Mask disrupts bullets from smart weapons, but can be destroyed by attacking it or using the Cyberware Malfunction quickhack. Alternatively, if you lose his attention and do a stealth takedown on him it will instantly destroy the mask.

Use Headshots or Melee Weapons

Hit him with your strongest weapons; headshots are fairly easy to land on him as he darts towards you so unload what you can and fast-swinging melee weapons such as a katana can lower his HP quickly.

Invisible Healing

Try to keep an eye on his movements, as when he goes invisible he'll be harder to track and can heal a good amount of his HP at this time. Don't let up and he will eventually go down.

Quickhacks

There are certain quickhacks that are extra useful in this battle.

Weapon Glitch Useful for his SMG attack as it inhibits his homing bullets.
Cyberware Malfunction Instantly destroys the Oni Mask.
Detonate Grenade Detonates the one grenade Oda has on his person.
Friendly Mode Allow you to track Oda on the cameras as he goes invisible.
