{{Quote|That [[Vex Mind]] was controlling the flow of [[Radiolaria]]. Without it, the assimilation of [[Kepler]] will stall.|[[The Ghost]]}}

'''Meridi and Didyo, the Assimilating Minds''' is a [[Vex Mind]] of the [[Nessian Schism]] found on [[Kepler]] where it is overseeing the control of [[Radiolaria]] to assimilate [[Kepler]] into a [[Machine World]]. It must be tracked down and destroyed as part of the [[The Gorge Strangelet]] quest in order to stall the assimilation of Kepler.

It can also be engaged and destroyed to complete an encounter and receive a loot cache during regular [[Patrol]]s.

==Gameplay==
Meridi and Didyo can be found in one of the deepest parts of [[The Gorge]] where it is protected by an immunity shield. To bring this shield down, [[Guardian]]s must get past the Assimilating Minds and travel up the pathway behind it and destroy a [[Cyclops]] guarding a [[Vex Lens]] that powers Meridi and Didyo's immunity shield. Destroying the Cyclops and the lens makes the Vex Minds vulnerable until it reaches half health in which it will summon another security lens in the same spot to reactivate its immunity shield. After this it will also summon [[Goblin]]s with the [[Matterspark]] [[Bane]] to reinforce it and seal off the pathway to the lens with security lasers. To get around these lasers, Guardians must kill a pair of [[Hobgoblin]]s and use the [[Mattermorph]] locked behind the barrier they guard to create a pathway above the security lasers. Destroy the cyclops and lens one more time and Meridi and Didyo will able to be destroyed.

==Trivia==
*This Vex Mind has a name indicating it is two separate independent Vex within it's chassis at once, being Meridi and Didyo respectively. Being they're called the Assimilating Minds, it is possible one assimilated the other or it was done mutually. Though these possibilities are not confirmed, nor if it truly is two separate independent Vex consciousnesses.
