Thought you were gonna upload a build for the short barrel SA58 lol. Was an awesome raid when you tried it out on the resort! Keep up the good work j
I thought it was pretty obvious that if youre going to be using a gun that has terrible ergo like this gun, you DONT play it aggressively since you cant bring it up and aim fast enough like you can with other guns.
Do a hk 416 build
Great, now wheres the high recoil low ergo sa-58?
All you need is lvl 4 gunsmith, and nixxor deal. Then 91 recoil build with lvl 15 recoil skill. You're welcome . 80k for a whole build?
Idk how ur recoil is 66, the minimum I get with that same build is 119
But we all know what the TRUE FAL setup is and the Halbeck device isn't even in the game yet.
I dont quite understand why the magpul AFG doesn't get more love. 10k on the flea for -2% recoil +6 ergo. The RK series at best gives an extra recoil percentage but doesn't give good ergo
although i dont use 7.62 guns that often. but to be honest, M62 has -5% recoil now which is pretty darn good for running with the fal or the 7.62 MDR.
Sa58 is Jack of all trades
I'm excited for the scar h/17
I feel like ergo is mostly worthless, beein able to ads longer means nothing if you cant hit shit beyond 20m
M1A is the one to go atm
the biggest guns are the hardest to wield but it definitely pays off!
The mechanic nixxor lens barter makes the SA-58 significantly cheaper to buy
but what about my 1500 rpm m1a
Goes in raid with 230k gun gets head eyed by shotgun ai scav. I’ve saw it happen to a friend
ANYONE BUILDING THESE BUILD: buy the ROE riser for around 8-20k for WAY less muzzle flash.
I love your fucking intro and outro music it feels so perfect for the videos
i dont play tarkov anymore cuz bsod kernel but i still watch ur vids
I go the cheaper way: I'll take some weapon parts and go to Mechanic and grab that short SA-58 ;). Any sight, any suppressor, any laser and ready to go. I use that one more as a DMR – with a Valday and a Thunder Beast I come up to 30ish ergo and 125ish recoil even with that 50-rounder. Cost for that package is around 80k for the gun plus around 140k for scope and suppressor depending on the prices at the flea. In general I do have both attachments lying around or I simply go loud and proud with just a red dot and no suppressor. You can even just take that full 50-rounder and don't need spare mags or ammo.
Gave one of the best runs yesterday on Shoreline – I spawned in the swamp and went towards cottages. Heard gun shots and nades all over the map, but didn't either see a scav or a player. Arrived at cottages and aimed from a bush. Sanitars boys were activated by some other dude, they were hiding and looking direction power station. First headshot, first guy, second headshot, second guy. Sanitar came up and didn't know were I am, so next headshot and all three dead with 3 rounds of M80.
So that gun seems to be accurate enough and – even more important – very quite. I tried to kill those guys from the very same position with an Orsis, missed my first shot and was mowed down by all three directly after.
why not just run the DT MDR .308 instead if they trashed the ergo on the sa-58, same bullets, fully auto, smaller form factor making it arguably better in some tight areas like dorms or resort and you can retain ergo on it. this sa-58 still a nice build though and ill defo be building a few to run with.
confused as to why i matched your low recoil build exactly but the recoil stats are almost double the one you built
Love all the build videos! One small point of feedback though, when you mention ''minus 2 recoil'' you don't specify the unit. I think it would be clearer if you did. So in this video on the low recoil shift build for example, you come to minus 3 recoil, which is minus 3% recoil, the difference is actually 11 recoil points (from 66 to 77), and since the ergo stats are build on points and not percentages, this can sound little confusing. Very minor detail, but felt it was worth mentioning. Look forward to the next one nonetheless!
If you want to avoid the muzzle flash I highly rrecommend the Sig Sauer Romeo 4 reflex sight.
The base for this sight is pretty high, so you can avoid the muzzle flash really well.
Keep in mind your barrel still sits lower, so at point blank you could accidentally aim higher than you wanted.
I've been rocking SA58 with a 16" barrel and the highest ergo I can get, with an LPVO (I think it's the Eotech Vudu 1-6) or the Elcan Spectre or the Eotech holo sight with magnifier combo (not gonna lie, idk the names of half these optics, I just loot them from people lol). But most of the time I have a laser or laser/light combo for cqb. I'm still not convinced the laser had any actual effect in-game besides giving you an aiming point (thus making it FEEL more accurate, or having less spread), but I've been using them nonetheless.
SA58 is hand down my favorite gun in this game.
which barrel is it in your builds ?
why cant i put the CASV rails on the handguard?
