    So about Odin's attacks..

    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.

    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.

    Now I hear Odin laugh in that weird laugh the predator has, and it amuses me to no ends, thank you for that


    I never saw him really execute Attacks apart from those big circles on the ground with weird thing in it

    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.

    I'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.

    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.
