How to unlock the Tactical distractor achievement

    This is relatively straightforward, and will come as you progress.

    If you hold down LB you bring up your equipment list. Select the rock (top right).

    Then as you approach a soldier, hold RB and you will get a yellow arc showing where you will throw your rock. Throw it relatively close to the soldier, and he will go "hmmm", a yellow circle will appear over his head and he will start walking to investigate. This counts as one distraction.

    I got it by level 3 playing naturally, so there is not really a need to grind it.

    TheAnonymityyou can throw rocks at the same enemies multiple times and this still counts as a distraction.

    If you are like me and didn't get this in your first playthrough there is a good spot in Mission 5 Siwa Oasis. You can just throw a rock at the beginning to distract 1-2 guards and then reload the checkpoint.

    Here is a short video demonstration:
