So i’ve been trying get DF ult achievement over 80 hours (Hit 6 enemies with single use for Meteor Strike) which is impossible (Small range, can be easily dodged by almost every hero etc.)
I’ve been complaining about this achievement for over half year and nothing has changed (All enemies need to be alive for achievement, high chance that own teammates kill one, two or most of them before DF can land ult if somehow all 6 are trapped, enemy team always has hero that can stay away like snipers and/or Pharah ult and did i forgot mention almost every single hero can dodge DF Meteor Strike easily)
Now to Sombra’s ultimate achievement… Only around 3 hours play time with Sombra and i managed get “Power Outage” achievement. For her ultimate achievement you also need hit 6 enemies with single use, but her ultimate is instant, over twice larger area than DF ult and harder to dodge.
DF ultimate is pretty much one of worst ultimates in the game and game asking impossible for achievement. Can’t “Cratered” Achievement get nerfed already, like “Hit 4 enemies with single use of Meteor Strike”? At least it would be possible than “hit 6 enemies”…

I gave up on Cratered quite a while ago. It is so situationally dependent that I would imagine a comparatively sizable portion of the people that have it actually boosted to get it.
To get it, the planets basically need to be perfectly aligned: all enemies grouped up in QP (Yeah, right) or Competitive, a Zarya using Graviton Surge to catch all 6 at one time, and the Doomfist either having impeccable timing or already being close enough to the enemies to land on them before they either scatter or any single target dies. Did I mention that if Moira or Reaper is on the enemy team, you have to hope they have their escape abilities on cooldown or they can ruin it for you?
I would rather not see the achievement adjusted for those people who rightfully earned it, but I do think that adjustments could be made in the future to lessen the time to descend from the ultimate or maybe speed up movement a little.
Until then, I would suggest saving your sanity for achievements the likes of Halt State or Rapid Discord.

Same boat. Too many things needs to align to get Cratered. It is simply a bad achievement design.
Too much Luck involve rather than Skill.

The achievement doesn’t even fit in with doomfist’s kit. He’s all about getting in quick, getting one or two picks, then getting out again. It would be a much better achievement if it was 3 solo kills with the ult or 4 final blows with it or something like that, not this stupid hit everyone at once stuff

I got it, but it was kinda random, and it requires some level of coordination.
Have a Zarya fire Graviton at a choke point, hope it gets all 6, and hope that your teammates listen to your pleas not to shoot at the group.
It has been 4 years and still nothing…

It seems most players who get it get it from the enemy team taking pity on them after all their teammates leave, at least those are the only times I’ve seen anyone mention it.
Nah I got it legit in lunar colony second point. Those stairs attackers take on the right. Hid around the corner of the doorway, hit Q by mistake, moved through the doorway, left click, achievement unlocked
If you think this one is rough try the Zenyatta or Baptiste ones.
Zen one isn’t even possible anymore with the orb change I think? :S
I’m really glad I got the achievements for Zen, Reaper & Hanzo before they tweaked their kits … 
I have 1,000 hours on Doom still haven’t got it.
The reason being my mmr is so high everyone knows to scatter when they hear that loud “Meaty Or Strike!”
Sombra you can come out of sealth and they have way less time to react.
I think doom is definitely harder. Zen and bap achievements are doable doomfist requires them to not have snipers, not have a shield or bubbles, for them to be playing close together. If it’s in a grav they have to not have fade, wraith, cryo etc.
Yeah the Hanzo simple geometry one is also absolutely impossible. Like possible but wow it’s insane. Especially after all the storm arrows nerfs.
Doom one is easier than Zen. Zens orb moves so slowly now that 1.5 seconds per kill is impossible unless they’re all literally in your face…
You basically need 4 people infront of you, at 10% hp, receiving 0 healing, not running away, and you need to discord hit, discord hit, discord hit, discord hit… And you might get it with 0.1 seconds to spare. If they’re 20 yards away from you it’s mathematically impossible.
Tell me again how Doomfist requiring 6 people to be in a grav is harder than something that is mathematically impossible if not under completely tailor made conditions. You can fluke Doomfist achievement, you can’t fluke the Zen one, you REQUIRE IT to be set up for you now… You also need nobody else to touch any of these characters.
because it requires their entire team to be stacked, it requires them to not have abilities to negate your ult (of which there are lot, rein shield, brig shield, zarya bubbles, sigma shield, orisa shield like half the heroes in the game can negate his ultimate lol. I have 23 hours in zarya and I think I’ve only gotten a 6 man grav once. I got the zen achievement by accident on paris defense point A so maybe I am biased. It’s definitely not an easy achievement but like doom requires you to have ult, have their entire team stacked, and also not have any abilities to negate it. Zen is just like his core ability with a team wipe. There’s just more instances where it can happen.
I’m a terrible doom…can’t play him at all….he’s like my 3rd most played hero because of how long I tried to get his achievement after he launched……and I stopped trying after like 2-3 months……
Hes still 3rd….
Around 1 year ago i was playing comp, the entire enemy team left except for the doom, so we decided to group up and let him hit us with his ult to get his achievement. It seems like that’s the only way to get the “impossible” achievements nowadays (Doom cute spray, Zen pixel, Bap cute spray)
The same Op.
I am somewhat impressed.
