Spare Odin!

Ok so in FFVIII you have to complete a pretty sweet sidequest to gain the GF Odin. I did it of when I played the game, and knew ahead of time about...

SPOILER below:


...Odin turning into Gilgamesh once you face Seifer at the end of Disc 3. Now I know Gilgamesh is more powerful than Odin, and I would rather have Gilgamesh appearing in battles for me afterwards, but what I wanna know is:

I know there are certain GF's you can only get up until certain times in the game, but can you obtian Odin after the battle with Siefer and then keep Odin afterwards for the rest of the game?

Just a thought that popped into my mind...

I don't think you can. Maybe, I never tried it tbh.

I must get round to finishing FF V seeing as Gilgamesh is supposebly the same ones.

Yes you can get odin after you beat seifer at the end of disc three. I done it once. So after you beat seifer go to the ruins and get odin. Then you can just use him instead of gilgamesh.

odin is cool but even if you can get him after you fight seifer he wouldn't do any good (to me anyway) cause you have to go and fight adel next and when i had oden with that battle he didn't help much or with any of the other battles i had when i when thow the timezone to to set rinoa free of the past with adel

Yea it sucks that odin wont come out during boss fights. I like gilgamesh better cause he has uber attacks that can really damage your opponent.

But even after I got Gilgamesh, he just kept trying to Zantetsuken all the bosses, which, as you know, does not work. Very rarely did I get any of the actual damage attacks.

Honestly, after that Seifer fight, I just ignored it as a GF. It was entertaining when it randomly appeared, but it wasn't useful.
