Which build should I use for leveling a maya from 1-72?
I am thinking about demonites kinetic reflection build or his world record immolate build against terra. They both contain bee which is a must have for because I want to use it. What are your opinions? Also would the kr build be good against bosses, same with the immolate one against enemys.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-9Es65j90U - Immolate boss build
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S5AvH6Lulg - bee and kr build

Im thinking that I could use one build from the start and build all the way up too and stick with it.
Since im starting at level 1 which one do you think would be effective until 72. In this case I would max immolate until 72 or for the other build kr. I want to be able to kill bosses and enemys. What do you guys think?

i think you should experiment until you find a build that suits your playstyle. don't rely on what YouTubers say.
this is where i usually am by level 15 :

at level 16 :

from there i put points into Chain Reaction and work my way down to Reaper then Ruin.
at level 31 :
http://bl2skills.com/siren.html#000000000000000000005540510501

here's my current level 72 build :

You've never soloed Maya through game max lvl 80? I've never known anyone who's gotten away with a single build ~ I've never known anyone who's wanted a single build to be frank ~ I'm no different cos I love the RPG aspects of the BL series ...

Assuming you've playing legit it won't work for a variety of reasons some of which are just basic algebra ~ your complete level 72 and or OP8 skill chart can't be rushed faster than the game naturally allows. Most experienced players agree it's not really worth trying to get it just right until levels 50+ UVHM but again cos of the math you've gotta start it at less than half that in order to reach your lvl 72 builds asap.

The higher you go in level the more tweaking your build requires & the game's final eight levels we can't really call it tweaking anymore ~ more like radical overhauls LOL it's more like constant experimentation & that's the main fun for many of us.

If you're like the rest of us you'll prolly find the SOSDD like bigger better weapons et al no longer cuts it in the OP levels cos your enemies scale against you at exponential rates per level for the first time in the game ~ the chart suddenly skyrockets sharply starting around lvl 77 OP5 & forward til endgame.

I wouldn't choose that build you've linked cos it's not very practical for me. Actually Demonite and I have better for our own use but he knows his video fans prefer the extreme ones. As well, he doesn't main Maya but he's one of the most creative Axtons around & damned good at Zer0 too. See what you can do with this ~ it's my solo build for 80 OP8 Rising Maya http://bl2skills.com/siren.html#324301220023454004205522510501
It's a good balance of offense & defense, optimised for Lege Cat / Nurse / Siren & works great for Blurred Trickster (purple pref w/ +18 pts in CR / KR / Life Tap). If you need to shift quickly into more of a support role for coop the only repsec required is to put a point into Res. Have fun (y)

I destroyed the entire game with a legendary nurses mod. focusing on phaselock duration and using a unkempt harold to take enemies down. The regen from the middle tree keeps me up through all fights. Just build super tanky and faceroll everything. I didn't get a legendary cat until after I had been in OP8 for awhile. I generally still use my nurse mod unless I am trying to solo raid bosses or speed run stuff.
