I don't have time for a long reply so I'll make this quick.

I don't understand how some people get off calling others idiots, or fools when not taking something so obvious into consideration. Then again it's nothing that I should not expect. It almost seems as if some people need to call another person names in order to prove a point or somehow appear to be superior. It's pathetic.
Outside forces? His tapping into his own power. All the Asgardians are empowered by a piece of the Odin Force. The are part of Odin.
The Odin Force also empowers the Asgardian dimension.
He'd be calling on power that is rightfully his.

Going by this logic, Odin should have never been beaten by the Dark Gods, because of all the amplifications that he could call upon. Yet there he was, chained up like a helpless prisoner in the heart of Asgard. Tyrant would do well in scenarios 1 through 3. The rest (4 through 11), depict Odin using outside forces to amplify that which he simply does not possess under normal circumstances.
The Dark Gods ambushed him right after he defeated Seth, all of his people were enslaved prisoners, Asgard had been corrupted, mutated and his power was constantly being drained. That is simply a possible in story explanation. The writer might have simply chose to ignore Odin’s possibilities.

For example; if they fought in neutral space (A Forum Battle), Odin would not have Asgard, its populace, the Destroyer construct, or any other exotic power source to draw upon. Calling people idiots is such a lame way to get a point across, and sort of makes the pendulum shift back upon the person spewing this type of nonsense when not seeing all of the angles.
I do not see why he could not simply draw the power from Asgard or the Asgardian's. And if you claim that he needs to be in the vicinity, teleportation is a simple goal for Odin. I find it silly that anyone would argue this with someone on the level of Odin but you never know.

In battles against opponents of similar power. Odin carries the magical spear Gungnir ("The Spear of Heaven"😉
What’s this supposed to prove besides the fact that you rely on bios? I don’t recall him having the spear in any of his large battles with Surtur, Seth etc.
He had the Scepter of Power during the first stage of his battle with Surtur during Walter's run but that's all I can remember. No Spear.
