    Similar to the "Rock Always Wins" achievement from Far Cry 3, you must allow the guard to return to his patrol after throwing and distracting him with the rock.

    Killing the guard will not count toward the achievement.

    However, unlike "Rock Always Wins", you cannot use the same guard repeatedly. You must distract 15 different guards across the game.

    vetteindreams77thanks MEETSP1NNER, at least i know why it wasn't unlocking - i was using the same guard multiple time. This achievement though not difficult is annoying me as much as its predecessor

    Easiest and fastest method below :
    - grab a buzzer (you can buy one at your home)
    - fly from outpost to outpost
    - land on a land above/higher than the outpost and avoid to be detected,
    - leave the buzzer,
    - scan the enemies with your camera (optional but make next step easier)
    - spread a lot of rocks on the outpost cn_right aiming above due to gravity,
    - wait ~30 secs (it looks that it register "distracting" after 3/5 secs as the achievement unlock form me ~3 secs after I trow a rock, 30secs are for safety smile).
    - fly to another outpost,
    - rince and repeat.
    It should take 3 or 4 outposts (the first smaller ones are easier).
