Results:
Legendary void RL with bad perks (i.e., shards)
Titan Exotic Chest (actually okay)
Hunter Exotic gloves (uh, yeah, no hunter, so.... useless).

That's a great run, exotic shards are always useful. Until you have 15 of them and no more exotics to upgrade, and exotic shards become just as useless as Vanguard commendations.

If all else exhausted, we can always replace the one you already upgraded with ones that have better stats roll Not to mention that most likely we have to do everything all over again in 2 months.

So basically the highlight for me were the scout rifle telemetries but it was good to have heavy ammo synthesis packs return. I err baught the lucky raspberry chest may be it will help me level up after the 4638363th level cap because it is for upgrade before the Acloyphage Symbiot is.

When the DLC hit, I actually hadn't finished an exotic bounty I was holding onto so when I did finish the bounty after the DLC had come out, I was pleasantly surprised to earn the 331 attack version rather than the 300 attack version. Methinks we shall hold onto the next available Thorn bounty and progress to the last stage, then turn in the bounty after the next DLC comes out...

I have my second sets of Thorn and Bad Juju ongoing right now, I will not turn them in until the next DLC hits.

They will all be DLC items. As long as Obsidian Mind is one of them, I'm perfectly fine with that. It's being sold today btw. Might buy this (if it lets me) even though I don't have the DLC in case Bungie changes their stance to allow vanilla players a Weekly Heroic and nightfall when DLC is in rotation. I'd have bought the DLC if they did that. Kinda annoying now that I seem to be getting friends on the 360 who Raid. Obsidian Mind + Atheon's Epilogue might be fun with void burn Nightfalls.

Ice Breaker is 17 coins, Obsidian is 13 coins. So you're 4 coins short. Go run a weekly strike, like, now.

But you better believe I know what mannon and I are doing... and maybe TheHawkNY too if he's up for it.... 9pm central, clear yer schedules boyohs... and it sure as $hit ain't no gawddamm Iron Banner... immatellyoudat much Refresh my memory: what do Motes allow you to buy? Other than useless $hit from the Speaker?

Exotic engrams from Xur, assuming he has one (he doesn't this week). He used to have one every week, but since the DLC it they've scaled that back for some reason. He only has them half the time now it seems like.

Hold on... $hit just hit the fan. It's spraying everywhere now....
He's selling the upgrade to the Skull of the Dire Ahamkara.... so while it'd be nice to have the Obsidian Mind, it's now not that much of a necessity to get it... plus I'm almost capped out of glimmer, so really, the 7k and upgrading it isn't an issue. Furthermore, my vanguard gauntlets, I'm not sure if they're maxed out or not so I'd drop back to level 30....
is there any way you can check your vault online?

Furthermore, my vanguard gauntlets, I'm not sure if they're maxed out or not so I'd drop back to level 30.... is there any way you can check your vault online? I bought another IceBreaker for the hell of it. I have four now. I don't know why I did this. I have the coins i guess, why not. I guess my silly thinking was one for each character, and then one in reserve in the lockbox. That was embarrassing to type that. I'm lame. I need to get away from dumb sh1t like that. I also upgraded one of my level 30 'Skulls of Akamhara' helmet. This might have some practical purpose. I have two characters at level 32 now. My third character is can swap gear to be lv32, but can't get there on it's own. So it's in a jam. It doesn't have a Raid Helmet (it has a lv 33) But it does have two Exotic Lv 36 chest pieces (VoidFang and PraxicFire). So if i use my 'Skull' exotic, i can get it to Lv32. But then i end up not using the chest exotic, which means the effort i did to get them to lv 36 was a waste. And i like the PraxicFire one. It has the two fusion grenade things.

Furthermore, my vanguard gauntlets, I'm not sure if they're maxed out or not so I'd drop back to level 30.... is there any way you can check your vault online? Destiny app has a PC version and a mobile version, both great for checking stuff. If you need to decide between Obsidian Mind and Skill of the Dire Ahamkara, there is no contest. Obsidian Mind can give you super all day (after you finish your Bad Juju bounty and upgrade it ) while Skull only improves the energy drain. So get the "Mind" and forget the "Skull" Another note: you are only 4 coins short of owning both, so consider doing the 6 coin weekly instead of the 9 coin one first if you are limited on time and/or have to do it solo. At level 30+ you should be able to get that one out of the way pretty easily, especially now you finally have an Ice Breaker! You can always come back and do it again at the harder setting if you want that 3 extra coins. With Ice Breaker + Bad Juju + Obsidian Mind, your life in Destiny is about to become much easier and "funner" starting next week

if you want a good review of the Obsidian Mind warlock helmet, check out this youtube channel. He's very informative
that said, i don't think it's THAT good of a helmet. There are some *'s floating around in there. It's for a voidwalker, as it's bonus super kill perks is only for certain enemies i think.

I got motion sickness from that EDIT: and I pretty much run Voidwalker 99.99999999999999999999% of the time (unless I'm doing a bounty) so I'm liking it more and more. The biggest question I have for Obsidian Mind.... how will it jive with my current shader line up...... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

In his video, Datto calls it: THE PVE Warlock exotic... and he'll slap me through the internet if I don't buy Icebreaker.

It's black. Black goes with everything... I don't want it to "go".... I want it to "jive" As in, when I'm doing a Leroy Jenkins ready to drop a Nova Bomb on Crota's Head to beat the raid for the first time, I want my fellow raiders to go, "gosh darn golly gee whiz!!! He looks so gosh darn golly gee whiz fly!!!" I wanna make the b%%%%es in the Cosmodrome get hawt and bothered! I wanna make the Tower my love pad!

Told by veteran warlock friends regarding Obsidian's Mind build:
1) Max on Intellect 2) Use Bad Juju
Also, IMHO Voidwalker is a hidden gem. It's abilities feed well into each other:
Soul Rip: Energy Drain -> Nova Bomb cool down The Hunger: Increases the duration of the Energy Drain effect Embrace the Void: Damaging enemies with Nova Bomb or any grenade triggers the Energy Drain effect
Put all of above together on a max intellect build with either high strength or high discipline, you'll have a crowd control powerhouse.
