Compared to other games I have played, I find that the Destiny forums lacks a substantive discussion on the abilities of each class or theorycrafting. This is to be a place for people to discuss and compile ideas about builds for our warlocks. Please submit your ideas :)
Because of the character limits on these forums, I was not able to fit all the builds into one post. As such, I have dedicated one comment/post to each build. This way, if you have any questions about the builds, you can reply just to that comment rather than the OP.
Also, if you wish to share a build, please try to follow the format of the other posts. It will be easier for people to follow if we are all consistent. Plus, it will help you organize your thoughts and include all relevant information :)

The hunger increases the duration of your energy drain. HOWEVER, [u]The Hunger and Dire Ahamkara do NOT stack[/u]. The "delusions of grandeur" perk on Dire Ahamkara essentially provides you with The Hunger perk. This frees you up to use either Annihilate or Angry Magic, depending on your preference. Alternatively, you can use a different helm and select The Hunger as your perk in the skill tree. Embrace the void triggers the energy drain effect any time you damage someone with either a grenade or nova bomb. Serpent's tail reduces the cooldown of your grenade whenever you deal damage with your melee. Grenadier reduces the cooldown of your grenade for every enemy you kill. Finally, stacking DIS will reduce the cooldown of your grenade. Stats max out around 272, so any additional stat points should go into intellect. It is more effective (I think) to have the extra intellect to build super because with Embrace the Void, your super will also reduce your grenade cooldown, so super cooldown is effective for reducing grenade cooldown. __________________________________________________
