    Odin

    Does anyone know the proper Odin timer?

    This is honestly starting to frustrate me, it's said that he's confirmed to be on a 24~48 hour timer, most likely 48 hours with a rumored 6 hour period before and after the 48 hours that he can spawn.

    I was sitting in shroud with an entire part of people who set off the day just to camp Odin ALLLLLLLL day and he never spawned just to come back this morning and log on to put something on the market to hear people screaming "ODIN POP ODINDDDSFABDFJABDVGOVABSFF" and not even get there to see him.

    Is there a better way of going about this or is there a timer?

    SE has said directly that the pop time is random.

    You could make an LS that is dedicated to spotting Odin and Behemoth. The more people you add to that LS, the more chances someone is walking around the area and spots the boss pop.

    Yeah that's a good idea, someone on my server tried that but it didn't go anywhere.

    Also if the spawn is random how do they expect anyone to do it other than being lucky?

    I was in that LS, was good for a bit but has died out since then. Now does Odin's fog effect cover more then the area of the Shroud that he spawns in? I know behemoth gets seen more just because there is always someone out there for fate grinding.

    That's the tough thing about Odin, the entire black shroud gets the Odin effect and you can't see his fate area unless you're close enough to see it on your mini map.

    I only made it to Odin twice, both he was in the same spot roughly so I can't judge how much his spawn places vary, but I assume there is probably a list of set locations where he can spawn. Of course that is speculation.

    There is no set pop timer for odin and behemoth. It was officially stated to be random, probably in a "roll a random number every X minutes, if number = X, pop NM" fashion.

    Most probably this but with a minimum time between respawns so you don't get something like 2 back to back lol.

    that's why it's a random, random fate, because it's not "expected" to be completed. If you're lucky, you will beat odin and get gold or silver and get drops. It's that simple. It's one of those things that give people a chance to stand out from just the standard leet grinders. If you really, really want to get odin drops, you can increase your chances and hunt him for a week or two, or however long it takes.
