I know this is totally old news, but I'd forgotten just how awesome it can be :D

Related note: does Firefly on a hand cannon do more damage than Firefly on a Scout Rifle? It sure seems to.

From ProbablyLast earlier:

Tfue is currently streaming him farming the Undying Mind strike. They weapons of light bubble in the back and snipe him down to a sliver of health. Two die and the third suicides with dragons breath. The boss dies at the exact moment the wipe countdown ends. Since that is entirely too complicated, we could just run the goddamn strike in 8 minutes.

Shield Brothers dropped "Mau'ual's Maulers" and "Treads Upon Stars"
Valus Ta'aurc dropped "Treads Upon Stars"
Dust Palace dropped "Solar Flayer Mantle"
Fallen S.A.B.E.R dropped "Devouring Maw"

I had a TuS drop with Triple Tap, Explosive Rounds/Casket Mag/ Will of Light, Hidden Hand. I've never bothered to level it up do to MIDA for PvP and Hung Jury for PvE. Is it really that good of a weapon?

I'd say YMMV. Personally, I've never been a huge fan of the Vision of Confluence archetype. Not that it isn't good, I just tend to prefer Scout Rifles that are tuned a bit more to one extreme or the other; hard hitters like Ghallion's Demise or fast ROF weapons like Mida. That said, Treads Upon Stars has very good base stats. Great range, decent ROF and clip size. I find the stability fine for PvE, not quite as tight as I like for PvP.

So given the option, I would rather use Mida or Hung Jury in PvP, and Hung Jury in PvE. But there is a lot to love about TuS, if that archetype clicks with you.

How to farm Undying Mind

I was thinking I'd use a hunter, and either using golden gun (Celestial Nighthawk or Symbiote) on yellow enemies or generating orbs for you guys with a Nightstalker. Since it's a Match Game, probably Supercell, Solar Sniper, and Void Sword - at least until I see if any shield types are under-represented.

If you are farming it during the nightfall this week, you might want to check out the video I posted at the start of this thread. We used a combination of Sleeper Simulant and Black Spindle to brute-force our way through the whole thing pretty quickly. I think the only shields in the strike are Void, but Solar Burn allowed us to rip through the void shields even with our solar weapons. We managed to kill the final boss before any of the Major adds had spawned, so we didn't even need to worry about them.

I absolutely love my Fatebringer, and I still run with it whenever a sub-300 light level is good enough. I have yet to find a comparable legendary HC.

I've been playing Undying Mind at various moments hoping to get it to drop, but no luck. Is it because I'm playing it on normal (selecting it in the Director)?

It drops on Normal, and (apparently) with roughly the same rate it drops on Heroic or Nightfall. This info comes from my farmer friend. ;)
