[edit] Tactics
The Flashbang is a great asset in close-quarters battles, no matter if they take place in a building or a forest. The small amount of room in those areas make it very difficult to run away from the grenade in time. Enemies that are hit by it will be stunned long enough for you to take them out without any resistance.
Used in conjunction with a Silenced weapon, the Flashbang can be used to eliminate enemies without enemies firing back. Simply stun them with the Flashbang, then take them out with the silenced weapon before they can recover.
The Flashbang loses its usefulness at long ranges. Enemies will usually run far from the grenade when thrown from a long distance. At that range, the Smoke Grenade should be used to confuse enemies and conceal your movements.
