Location
Oppressor is located at the Killing Floors, found at the Dissected Plateu in The Fadefields.
In order to gain access to Oppressor you will need to progress through the main story by completing the A Lot to Process mission.
How to Beat
Oppressor is a noisy bossfight since it's fully aerial and will attack you from above at all times. It is recommended to face this boss with any strong Assault or Sniper Rifle you have to make it easier to hit him from afar.
FIGHT TLDR
Prioritize dodging any bombs and missiles when the Oppressor is flying around instead of shooting at it.
Don't chase the Oppressor when it flies around - instead wait for it to stop and then fire away!
