How to Use Odin

Equip Odin's Eikonic Abilities

Since Clive isn't Odin's Dominant, he will not be able to transform into Odin but instead gain access to his Dark-based attacks after obtaining his essence.

After acquiring Odin, this Eikon's abilities will be unlocked in the Abilities menu and be available for upgrade. You can then equip them to Clive and use his attacks in combat.

Odin Connections to Barnabas

Inherited by Barnabas Tharmr

Odin is inherted by the dominant, Barnabas, the King of Waloed. Arriving on the shores of Valisthea as a nameless wanderer, Baranabas' skill with the sword and control over Odin helped him unite the eastern lands, forming it into what we now know as the Kingdom of Waloed.

Based on the gameplay shown on livestreams and trailers, Odin and Barnabas will play a big role in the story and might serve as an adversary to Clive.
