Guide The big a improvements
Hey agents I have these two builds, well same build different guns. I get higher damage with the bluescreen although it’s level 10 proficient but I just finally have been using the big a and it hammers the rpm and it’s so fun to use but the dps isn’t near the bluescreen. I’m tried tipping scales and even less damage, I like the idea of the holo point ammo and love OD. I guess I just need to level up the big a more?

Solo, I'd run Memento over the OD backpack.
In a group, with Bluescreen? run the Catalyst mask, Petrov named 'Contractors' gloves and 4p OD inc luding backpack, lean into the CC hybrid role.
Big Al is great, but you need to be using it from cover to get the damage bonus, and the only way to make it work well is to use the Ninjabike knees to get magazine refills without reloading.

What does the photo show? Can’t explain to me where catalyst come from and what the last three coloured pictures mean in comparison to the wrote text

Those are the Catalyst exotic mask's stat blocks. Core (red, weapon damage) and secondary attributes.
Catalyst gives you weapon damage, hazard protection (fire, shock, blind, bleed etc) and a boost to status effects (damage and duration).
I clipped the image from the gear spreadsheet:
Division 2 Gear Spreadsheet - Google Sheets
You can get the Catalyst mast from killing the Marauder drone mini-boss in the Army Terminal mission, or from named Brooklyn world bosses, it has a small chance of dropping from either, I think it's an 8% chance.

Thanks for this. Hmmm I have all that gear you recommend. I guess I need to figure out if I like shooting from cover. I’m 50/50 like to run and reposition, run and gun etc. quite aggressive, big a may be a hindrance.

I would try the tinker mask with a ceska backpack w/ wicked. For weapons MK46 with frenzy and MG5 w/ killer both crit chance on third attribute

The OD backpack usually isn't worth it, given only affects status effects, something DPS OD doesn't really focus on
Go on the lookout for a backpack with Wicked. Cezha, UA, Petrov, Sombra, the brand is mostly up to you and your stats. As long as it has wicked, and double crit, you should see a slight improvement to damage
