    Hi Guys

    Here is my Solution for this Achievement.

    You can buy the Bow for Money or get it free when you activated Radio Towers. Go to a Shop / Vendor and under Special Objects you find the Bow.

    Buy the 2nd Attachment then equip the Bow. Go to a Outpost or Patrol / Streetbarricade and find a Enemiy what stand still.(is easier)

    Then you must appraise what 70meter is, after this Aim with Bow and try to hit the Enemy.

    In my Video i show a Way with a Outpost.

    Edit: NeXuS23 write in the Comments:

    "I simply crafted Special Arrows, the ones with Explosives, Shoot 20-30 of them from a Hill into a Camp and the Achievement will pop in no Time without even aiming"

    This is one Way too :) thx for the Tipp!

    Edit2: For the 70Meter Distance has OLph42 a good Tipp

    "If you need some help to estimate the 70m distance you can place a waypoint on the outpost and you will get a marker and the distance to that marker will show up on the lower left on your screen."

    Regards

    BusyRichShooting the arrows into the camp worked great. I found it useful to sneak up nearer the camp first and tag enemies, and then head back to the 70m mark before firing away.

    wolfzero01I've already upgraded my arrow carrying capacity, but when do you get the option to craft the explosive arrows?

    MiZ Dove OGThank you, thumbs up. Worked great. Used the hill above an outpost solution. I crafted 10 explosives arrows first, and carried 8 grenades to craft more explosive arrows if needed. I made sure i had the marksmans scope, which is the 2nd upgrade listed for the bow.

    I used the outpost Lazy Shore Marina on the South Island because Echo camp fast travel is very close in case you die, you spawn or jump right back very close.

    I also used this camp to finish off 30 kills i had left of the flamethrower achievement for that reason.

    Yeah so all i did was mark the outpost as a waypoint so i would have a distance reference. I used camera to mark all the enemies because the skull ones die much easier than the heavies with a shield, so it gave me a point of reference to empty my quiver where the skulls guys were. I just aimed using the proper distance on the scope, and paid attention to where they were landing to allow for adjustments in aim, and let them fly. It popped right away.

    This is for people who have already liberated every outpost. There is a location around X:368 Y:697 that will always have enemies, and there's a great perch where you can shoot some enemies from across the harbor. Video guide is by me.

    The one thing I should mention is that this achievement doesn't have to be done on enemy characters, it can be done on friendly targets.

    All I did was find a couple rakyat standing on a beach, equip my bow with the marksman sight, equip explosive arrows, line up the sight at the 80 yard mark and fire, if it went to far past them I backed up and tried again. Took 5 explosive arrows and I got it.
