How to Beat Odin

Weak to Force

Have Rangda act as tank

Use Tarunda and other Support skills

Bring Ice Dampeners

Use Tarunda and Other Support Skills

Odin has some strong skills up his sleeves and has +6 Physical proficiency. Even having Rangda use Taunt, there's still a chance that Odin will attack the other party members or use a party-wide attack. Lower his attack with Tarunda and use other Support skills to boost your team's stats and lower his.

Bring Ice Dampeners

SMT V Blocked Mabufudyne

Odin will use Mabufudyne the next round after gathering Magatsuhi. Since it is a guaranteed critical hit to your team, use an Ice Dampener to block the attack and make him lose press turn icons.

Best Demons to Use Against Odin

Rangda	Fuu-Ki	Mot
Tao

Rangda with Null Ice and Null Elec

SMT V Rangda with Null Elec and Null Ice

A lv69 Lilith and a lv68 Skadi can learn Null Elec and Null Ice respectively. Fuse the two into Rangda, teach it Taunt through essence fusion, and make it your meatshield against Odin. She can also double as attacker as she has +3 Force proficiency and high Magic stat.

Mot or Fuu-Ki as attacker

SMT V Weak to Force

Both Mot and Fuu-Ki are excellent choices to aim at Odin's weakness. They are both weak to Electric so make sure to give them Resist/Null Elec through fusion.

I am sorry, but Rangda cannot effectively act as a tank in this fight. This is because Gungnir is a piercing attack that hits everyone. Moreover, the result can be devastating if Odin uses Charge, followed by Gungnir. It would be advisable to keep everyone's HP as high as possible to sustain the damage that Gungnir can cause.

it probably should be stated that odin has dekaja, so it will be more advantageous to use skills like debilitate than luster candy or try not to stack buffs on everything because odin will use dekaja
