BLOODY NURSE
Level 72 OP8
Damage • Support • The Bee
PLAYSTYLE
Thanks to her varied skill trees, Maya has multiple playstyles she can easily adapt to. If you like to deal high damage and be a valuable teammate, this balanced build is the way to go. At OP8 this build shines thanks to your high gun damage with SMGs and healing. Her Phaselock is an essential part of the puzzle, and something you’ll make plentiful use of.
Your game plan isn’t that complicated, and thanks to the build’s point allocation, you’ll largely stick back, phaselock groups of enemies, and blast them with your insanely powerful SMG, the Sandhawk. When you aren’t shooting, you’ll slag enemies thanks to phaselock, as well as your grenades. Some amount of distance is key here, and the skills from the Harmony tree will ensure you’re getting constant opportunities to self-heal as well. The gear selection also serves a similar purpose and directly makes use of your particular skills to apply slag, and deal extra damage.
SOLO
Since this is a balanced build, it’s very viable in solo play. You are still advised to maintain some distance because The Bee Shield takes a bit to recharge. Most of your skills in the Cataclysm skill tree boost your weapon damage and you’ll want to capitalize on that with the Sand Hawk SMG. If you’re downed, you can always switch to the Norfleet rocket launcher to easily get a fast second wind. Finally, phaselock is another must here, and you don’t need to be conservative with its use since you aren’t reviving another teammate.
COOP
This build focuses on both damage and healing, which makes Maya the perfect co-op teammate. Thanks to a balanced focus across Maya’s skill trees, the Harmony skills are extremely useful for cooperative play. Res allows you to resurrect a teammate when you use phaselock, so you’ll want to keep a charge for any teammates that have a habit of being downed often. Sweet Release heals you and the team, while Scorn applies slag to a group of enemies allowing the entire team to do increased damage.

SKILLS
This build has some skills from each tree, but there’s a focus on the Harmony and Cataclysm tree.
To ensure Maya empties magazines fast Accelerate comes in very handy while Converge pulls multiple enemies together for you to phaselock them, which activates Ruin that applies slag, corrosion and shock.
Chain Reaction gives a 40% chance of bullets ricocheting, and Elated, Res, and Life Tap provide you and the team with tons of healing and revival chances. Everything else in Cataclysm aids your gun damage, reload speed and rate of fire.
