Odyn
This fight IS soloable, if you’re patient. All of the tricky stuff happens in Phase One, which I will describe below.Imbue the Drust Fetish with the power of Gorak Tul. A level 60 Quest.

- Phase One: in which you must bring two Valarjar mini-bosses (Hymdall and Hyrja) down to 25% health within 15 seconds of each other, or they will heal fully via Revivify. The problem is that they ALSO take 99% reduced damage when within 35 yards of each other, thanks to Valarjar’s Bond. I’ve tried brute-forcing this phase, and it looks like it would take around 2 hours that way. So, HOW does one inflict any significant damage to these Valarjar? The key lies in the fact that both of their “big” spells have a 5-second cast time, during which they will not move. Thus, when Hyrja casts Shield of Light or Hymdall casts Horn of Valor, move away as fast as you can! The non-casting mini-boss will follow you and with a little luck you’ll get one or two unshielded hits in before the caster catches up with you. After a few minutes of this dance, you’ll eventually get one of the Valarjar down to 25% health. At this point they will become immune to damage and start casting Revivify. This is your cue to drag the remaining mini-boss away and finish the job. That’s the hard part: while all of this is going on, Odyn will periodically summon a bunch of Runecallers and hit you with Unerring Blast. Don’t bother trying to kill the adds, as they won’t die before Odyn reabsorbs them anyway. Unerring Blast is the main source of incoming damage during this phase, so you may want to use some damage-reducing abilities to mitigate it.
- Phase Two: beat the crap out of Odyn. The Runecaller adds still spawn, and you should still ignore them. The main ability to watch out for is Odyn’s Spear of Light, which will shatter and create a number of Glowing Fragment. Touching these will stun you for 3 seconds, which is annoying.
- Phase Three: don’t stand in the glowing parts of the floor, and kill Odyn before he kills you.

Notes
Back into Torghast, south to the oubliette, and speak with the Runecarver:
- Did you a discover a way to free me?
I've found a way, but we only have one shot at it. Let's get you free!
A cutscene plays as the Maw Walker channels the anima into the Runecarver's right shackle, freeing that hand before the item shatters.
