A few weeks ago I was questing on night-time lighthouse while watching one of your build guides. As I'm crossing the street I got headshot from chalet. The player that killed me was named J Dog th3 Wise, and I thought that sounded familiar. Looked over at the youtube video I was watching and it clicked. I literally jumped out of my chair and was screaming to my buddies on discord. Peak tarkov moment for me, just another raid for you haha

[@JDogth3Wise]

It's a small world out there in Tarkov! GG's!

[@AboAlbo]

hey i’m airkiller’s friend IRL I was with him when this happened. just commenting bc he texted me and said he had top comment on this video and I want to take his spot

[@nickmoros1507]

⁠@@AboAlbo Hey I’m AboAlbo’s friend irl. make sure this doesn’t happen

[@Propeezee]

That laugh!!! Love to see you enjoying tarkov

[@torry2]

Been running the short n loud SA58 and been absolutely flattening everyone in my path.

[@JoelAppugliese]

This is the way.

[@CrackingBiscuits]

I wanna try that. What's the pros and cons? I've been too scared to use un suppressed guns

[@torry2]

@@CrackingBiscuits pros are ergo and shorter weapon for cqb. Full auto M80 drops people quick up close. Also it sounds awesome Con is the whole map will hear you so play fast & aggressive

[@MessedUpSystem]

Since I got Mechanic 3 I've really started enjoying the mid barrel SA-58, it has decent ergonomics on par with the SCAR-H which I also enjoy while retaining the high fire-rate and controllable recoil, best of both worlds

[@Jacob_Dwyer]

Slick play and great video I will say it again you are criminally undersubscribed. Right on and Lily looks great.

[@Propeezee]

I love the sa58 this wipe. Thanks for the great video

[@JDogth3Wise]

Thanks for watching!

[@_PrivatePaula]

How I Love to say "Welcome to Woods Baby " I freaking Love this Map and more the PvP on it

[@bobjones6154]

Dude nice shooting!

[@Alex-tw1lv]

"best place to start is mechanic level 4" BRUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH

[@ThatKreizyTT]

Welp mechanic 3 gun part trade kinda nice if you collect some in raid

[@jeffzkiller3590]

dude we're 3 months into wipe that's not that hard

[@Chevalier_knight]

Dude that raiser

[@JDogth3Wise]

I had to try it at least once

[@uWeqqQerRtiopPp3RRp]

the juice cannon baby

[@antonhallergren588]

I ran the sbr variant. Pointed my sight and shot a couple rounds at a squad running away from me into some bushes. Didn't think much of it. Turns out 3 of them died when I came to the raid screen.

[@MetaphoricalMusic]

i see j dog, i upvote.

[@rottenearthling]

I just started using this gun again yesterday and got a nasty triple kill in resort

[@skylarotten]

Best gun in game always will be

[@dskpnk]

This weapon reminds me old tarkov

[@JDogth3Wise]

One of the OG's from when the game first got popular

[@para.]

I've tried it first time today after playing ak's for most of the wipe so far I'm speechless why am I torturing myself with ak's lol. Sa 58 best gun hands down.

[@AiRenwick]

I don't know how but i am still stuck on lv 2 traders. It's Kind of funny

[@alexbarganier7289]

"Mom, can we have the song August 10 by Khruangbin?" "We have August 10 by Khruangbin at home (10:52)"

[@n0xxm3rcyxx]

yep... have to wait for reset... built it ran it died to guy in a bush 5 mins in didnt shoot 1 round. cool build.

[@joshualukereynolds]

Needed to talk about ammo

[@aleksandrsverchkov375]

You didn't cover a short barrel build, unfortunately. For close quarters like Dorms, I would prefer a shorter version. But honestly, I love short builds in general.

[@jzubs]

This gun feels better than the MDR. I said it

[@I_Am_Monstrum]

First to a goddamn great vid!

[@JDogth3Wise]

Thanks for watching!

[@SiberianOldPal]

Was it your drop near the end?

[@JDogth3Wise]

Yep, as bait

[@Onc3Holy]

I know it's dumb but that Spectre DR 1-4 scope reticle is causing me pain. It so inaccurate to the real reticle. For reference, see BrassFacts.

[@rylann2868]

this gun wont go full auto for me?

[@juancarloslopezgonzalez5192]

Why you game look so nice ?

[@JB-fy3hj]

SA-58 or MDR

[@danielantunano7708]

I feel MDR is definitely more practical (cheaper to build, same caliber, more ergo, lighter) but, MAN, the SA-58 is just swag

[@gilraine1225]

The mdr is a bit better ergo, but i love the 30 round mags of sa58.

[@isaacbfvt]

Black mdr > SA- 58

[@SwissMarksman]

all the time

[@Mehkanics]

2 things, 6:00 this is exactly why i wont use that scope, TF dont even know where your bullets are going.... and 2 at 6:29 that shit was PAINFULL watching you pop a adrenaline when you have a zugustine LITERALLY right below it(anyone know why?)... THEN you get a heavy bleed because you didnt use the zag, AND THEN YOU HEAL SAID HEAVY BLEED WITH A FUCKING afak WHEN YOU HAVE A GOD DAMNED CALOK RIGHT THERE.... im sorry for yelling but like i feeel like your attacking me personally lmfao . please for the love of god streamline your healing. Your videos rock by the way.

[@JDogth3Wise]

Ummmmm ackshually

[@JDogth3Wise]

I popped the adrenaline because I needed painkillers. Then I used the AFAK because my thorax was super low. Would rather heal up and finish the fight than pop another stim and just sit there. Sometimes there is a method to what seems like madness.
