Opportunity knocks trophy obtainable?

[MrVertigo9000]

Hi my friend decided to go back and go for the the platinum for Far Cry 5. I’m currently doing some misc trophies while he is busy and I tried to do the “Opportunity Knocks.” trophy which requires you to distract 15 guards. I was warned in the guide that this trophy is buggy, but I am starting to come to the conclusion that this trophy might not be even obtainable. You see I went to a random outpost I have yet to liberate and chucked a rock at a guard for about 5-10 minutes. The guide says that I could distract the same guard over and over I also let him come back to his original spot like the guide says. I swear I’ve done those things and the trophy has still yet to pop. I will keep trying, but if anyone has any solutions please let me know.

My suggestion would be do not use the same guard over and do it on 1 guard beat the out post rinse and repeat. Or even more extreme, do 1 guard per a different outpost, so 15 outpost 1 guard each. If It's that buggy, anything is worth a shot, lol.

People have been earning this trophy at a consistent rate for weeks: https://psnprofiles.com/trophy/7419-far-cry-5/42-opportunity-knocks
 

If all else fails, get all the other trophies needed for the Plat, then delete your saves, reinstall the game and start over from scratch on a fresh save.

You can distract the same enemy over and over again. For a distraction to count, the enemy must conduct their investigation and then fully return back to their original position/activity. Patience is the key here.
