How exactly do you dodge Gungnir, Darksteel Reign, and Einherjar? And what does Darksteel Reign and Einherjar do? I keep dying do Gungnir and keep running away from Darksteel and Einherjar and the attack does absolutely nothing (?) despite not getting out of the giant AOE circle.
So about Odin's attacks..

Odin does attacks? All I see are flashing lights, which I assume cause people to have seizures randomly and pass out.
lol, um seriously though... I forget the names, but Odin has a few basic moves:
1) AoE immobilize that can also petrify?
2) Circular "cage" that you have to break the tether to get out?
3) Melee attack that is instant death to most non tanks.
4) Odin's "Limit Break" when he is low health that kills everyone in range (You should be able to run away from it if it looks hopeless. Think of the movie predator and his last move! lol).
5) There are also some random debuffs that increase your damage taken for a while.
Beyond those, I think there are little AoE circles that he throws around also that have a fair chance of killing you too, but often you can limp away.
Sorry I don't know all the moves by name.
Something also to consider is how you mentioned how some attacks seem to do nothing. I believe you are right, but this is because there are too many people around and it can only effect so many people at once that get hit by it. It should cap out, much like Odin can only take so many dps dots at once. -

Darksteel reign, you have to run or it bind you ( he combines it with hall of stone to petrify you ),
Gungnir will pop a Gungnir that you have to destroy,
I still don't know what einherjar is supposed to do. -
06-19-2014, 08:04 PMKimikryoNow I hear Odin laugh in that weird laugh the predator has, and it amuses me to no ends, thank you for thatQuote:

But Einherjar? Einherjar are Odins "knights" during Ragnarok. those warriors fallen taken up to the resting pace of the einherjar by the walkyrs.
Since they got that pretty right in FFXI .... maaaybe ..... mmultple attacks by (unseen) foes? -

From what I heard Odin's "limit break" will kill you if you participate in the fate. You freaking teleport it will still get you.

You don't. You just don't dodge. Haha. No seriously, just side step out of any red below your feet on the ground.

06-20-2014, 01:08 AMAdamuKun322I've been in Odin's FATE where he used Zantesuken, but I ran all the way out of the circle and did not get hit. And then I turned around and all I see are dead players.Quote:

From memory, Odin's attacks are:
1.) Frontal Cleave: His auto-attack
2.) Hall of Stone: Small AoE petrify
3.) Hall of Lead: Large AoE heavy
4.) Gungnir: Tosses multiple lances that land, creating an AoE stun on impact, and the area around them inflicts Bleed. The locations seem to be random with no indicator.
5.) Darksteel Reigns: Large AoE. Honestly, I'unno what this does. I think it inflicts Vulnerability Up?
6.) Einherjar: I've never been hit by this, even though the actual AoE covers the majority of the FATE area. I've always suspected that, since he does it after Gungnir, that maybe it inflicts massive damage on those within Gungnir's AoE?
7.) Zantetsuken: Begins cast at 5% HP, and will kill everyone participating in the FATE.
And, lest we forget his ultimate attack...
8.) Error XXXXX: Server crash for everyone, baby! -

Also don't forget with the rollout of patch 2.25 he does an unknown attack that causes about 80% of participants to disconnect for a brief time. Only the best can avoid this attack

Well for healing... esunaing those damage taken debuffs is a must. That will keep people from dying to most everything else. As a bard I tend to be far away generally. And to everyone... stop running around like headless chickens when he has hate on you. Stand there and take it... better die and get rezed than run around and nobody can do any DSP on him.

Welp, I've only ever seen myself take damage one time... (Probably due to omglag) and that one attack struck me for about 27k damage. I had gotten excited because this was a break from atma grinding and I jumped in early. As a dps, don't do this. Wait for the next hundred or so people to show up. If a mob can hit you for nearly eight times your max HP, I think it's only fair that some of his attacks don't do jack squat. =P

1. His basic attack is a cleave that hits for too much damage. Once saw full ilvl 90 Pld hit for 14k. But its damage is split between receivers.
2. Hall of stone-AOE Petrify
3. Hall of Lead- AOE Heavy
4. Darksteel Reigns- AOE Pull. I think it only effects a small group of people close to him.
5. Einherjar- Been so long sense I've done Odin, but I think this is his AOE slow.
6. Gungnir- Random lance drops. Binds and bleeds everyone in the area. Also spawns Gungnir adds.
Note- He has no traditional aggro table. Far as I can tell its the order people attack him in.
Good luck and have fun. -

Sorry to post largely the same thing I (and Genoflax just did) posted earlier, but he popped on Midgardsormr earlier and I managed to see the majority of his attacks and learn their effects. Unfortunately, our server wasn't able to get him below 50% HP, so if and how his attacks change beyond that, I don't know. I do believe he does have a traditional aggro table though, as I was able to steal aggro on a few occasions during the fight, although it ended pretty badly for me, haha. (NOTE: all attacks were from a Level60 Odin and dealt to an i91 WAR):
From 100% HP
1.) Auto-attack: a large frontal cleave that deals a massive damage (12~15k) that is split between the targets. Each hit inflicts one stack of Vulnerability Up for 30sec
2.) Valknut: a medium AoE around Odin that deals moderate damage (2~3k)
3.) Hall of Sorrow: a medium, ranged AoE that Odin launches at a random player that deals moderate damage (2~3k)
@90% HP, he says "Foolish mortals...", signaling his second phase:
4.) Hall of Stone: a medium AoE around Odin that inflicts Petrifaction and Vulnerability Up for 10sec.
5.) Hall of Lead: a large, ranged AoE that inflicts Slow for 30sec.
6.) Darksteel Reins: a large AoE around Odin that inflicts Heavy for 30sec and moderate damage (2~3k)
7.) Einherjar: a massive AoE around Odin that inflicts high damage (3~4k)
8.) Gungnir: Odin throws a spear into that air that, upon landing, deals high damage (3~4k) and inflicts Bind for 8sec. Afterwards, the lance becomes targetable and has an AoE around it that inflicts Bleed as long as the player is inside it.
@75% HP, he says "Canst thou hear the lamentations?", signaling his third phase:
9.) Gungnir x2: Odin throws two Gungnir instead of one, but the effects remain the same.
@40% HP, he says "Here I stand--a god amongst men. yet here I remain--a mere man amongst gods.", signaling his fourth phase:
10.) Gungnir x3: Odin throws three Gungnir, but the effects remain the same.
@5% HP, he says "Mine obsidian blade shalt split atwain the threads of thy future...", signaling Zantetsuken:
11.) Zantetsuken: Odin ceases all attacks and begins casting his ultimate attack. If not defeated within 30secs, he will deal 99,999 to all participants in the FATE, resulting in the FATE failing before the timer has actually run out.
"...whilst its crimson fuller shalt channel the lifeblood of thy past!" -
