How to unlock the Stunning Vistas achievement in Alan Wake 2 - Definitive Guide
Flashbangs start appearing as loot in briefcases and lunchboxes in chapter 5 onwards. Keep an eye out for lootable containers and you will find one - the contents of the containers varies so there isn't a guaranteed location. Saga most often finds them in Cult Stashes and Alan can find them in any container.
Once you have a flashbang, you need to use it on an enemy. Equip the flashbang through the menu (or with a quick slot, if you prefer).
Find a physical enemy (so not one of the shadows that disappears when you focus the flashlight on it with , you want one of the ones that can actually hurt you). Use your flashlight to burn off the darkness so that they're vulnerable (one for the comments - does it unlock if you haven't done this?).
To throw the flashbang, you need to aim with and then press to throw it. Keep in mind that the flashbang will bounce and roll on the floor, so you can throw it at/in front of their feet. The radius is relatively generous.
When the flashbang explodes, which stuns the enemy, the achievement should unlock immediately.
