This might be for purely selfish reasons, since it’s the only Achievement I don’t have, but I feel like Doomfist’s Cratered/Cute Achievement should be lowered from hitting 6 enemies in one single Ultimate use, to hitting 4 enemies. It’s almost impossible, and almost completely luck based. It’s hard enough to get an entire enemy team to be in its radius, and even if they are, they can get out of it or counter it pretty quickly.

It obviously should be. It’s mostly ludicrous and sheer dumb luck.

I feel a few of the Achievements should be changed, especially since every time the meta changes, a new hero gets added, or someone gets buffed/nerfed, it changes a lot of other things and characters, but the Achievements are never changed, except for when they rework heroes.

I’m not sure if Blizz is just lazy or is it a problem with getting the changes approve on specific platforms. But I do agree some achievements needs to be adjusted, like Cratered.

I honestly don’t know how I’m gonna get it without just playing Doomfist for possibly hundreds of hours and pray that I get lucky. And I hate playing Doom, LOL.
Literally, you can get people sometimes on the other team to just set it up for you, which utterly defeats the purpose. 4 people is plenty.

You need help. Zarya Grav, Orisa Halt and Sombra EMP will all help.
I ended up maining Doom and still hasn’t gotten this achievement. The closest was always with a Zarya.

A bunch of achievements should’ve been changed when characters were nerfed.

Or reworked in some cases.
It’s certainly possible to get it with some teamwork, or even individually. Ever since I’ve gotten it years ago, I’ve managed to more consistently hit five or six players with it. Just keep at it.
Overall I agree that some achievement sprays are really hard to get without a little bit of like and planets and star alignments.

I’m all for hard achievements but like you said, some of these are too much base on Luck instead of Skill.

Does Bob count? But yeah the nerf to Zarya made this hard achievement nearly impossible unless you que up against some friends who intentionally stand together. Just be glad it’s not “Kill 6 people” at once.

BOB does not count towards achievements, if I’m not mistaken.
This is an unpopular opinion but I personally like having achievements that are pretty wacky to get.
Even if it’s just random / lucky / super difficult / obscure- whatever.
I like it
So long as the rewards aren’t major / impactful
you think that one’s hard?
wait till you go after baptiste window of opportunity
2500 combined damage and healing from your window in one life, damage against shields doesn’t count, and rounds count as a life
that’s completely insane

I think it’s also because they know they’d get flamed by people who actually got the achievement. As soon as they changed it, the forums would be flooded with angry posts from people who already got the achievement when it was hard, and are mad that it’s gotten easier.

Even with Zarya, we have characters like Reaper, Moira, and Mei who can all avoid the Grav.

I’m still sitting on 70+ hours with Baptiste without his Cute Spray. It’s pretty much impossible to get 2,500 damage/healing amplified without dying. Orisa was much easier and I typically get these achievements within 10 hours of play (already have both of Echo’s in less than 3).
When I got Doomfist’s Cratered, I intentionally targeted Torbjorn’s turret. So I’m not sure if it counted as part of the achievement. Ashe wasn’t in the game at the time, but I’m fairly certain BOB doesn’t count. I tried using Amplification Matrix against an enemy BOB and didn’t get any damage amplified on BOB, recorded.

Ugh I remember doing 1200-1500 damage boost and over 15-18k heals. Twice before dying. Only to find out the achievement was bugged and the heal boosts wasn’t counting. 
No Justice. Now his Ult gain has been nerfed making this harder to get.
The Not Dying requirement feels like a cheap add-on that makes playing the character counter intuitive. Why not just increase the requirements instead?

I actually have that one, like I said, the only Achievement that I don’t have is Doomfist’s Cratered. Window of Opportunity is hard, but it’s totally doable, and more skill based, not just purely luck.
