Dear Community, Blizzard & Jeff,
With this forum topic I would like to start a discussion to change the requirement of the cute spray from Doomfist.
As we all can clearly agree this achievement is way to hard, and not based on skill, it’s luck based. I don’t mind having an luck based achievement but it has to be doable, and this one is way to hard to do.
So with this post I would like to ask people to like and leave your comment to lower the number of people required in Doomfist ult from 6 to 4 which is the number of kills/hits we need for most cute spray achievements.
Please people leave your comment and like this thread so we can have some attention to this subject!

I agree. This achievement is incredibly hard to achieve. Almost always requiring a Zarya on your team. Changing it from 6 to 4 would be a nice change as well as making it more in line with the other ultimates as OP mentioned.

4 seems fair and if i had to pick a number it would be 4 same as junkrat, dva, mccree, hanzo, genji etc no reason his needs to be a team kill, in fact not including maybe some gravs ive seen an enemy solo wipe with an ult once in my games at least

Your Zarya graved enemy team and you as Doomfist ready to meteor strike … wow.
Now now, enemy has Mei? Reaper? Moira?
Your team-mates killed 200 hp heroes before you could land from Mars … umm Neptune?
Enemy has Zarya with any of her bubble on cool down?
Any enemy was opposite of the barrier from where you landed?
Congratulations!! You have been …!!

Yeah that’s totally fair, it’s an outlier against other ult achievements, it’s difficulty aside it should be brought in line with the other requirements at least.

Yeah I agree, this is totally not in line with other achievements.
Maybe 3/4 kills or something would also be OK, but hitting all is really a disaster.

It is simply a bit silly that it is technically a harder requirement then the rest of the heroes which makes little sense. It should be hard to get, but it shouldn’t require another hero to do it, which this one does quite a bit, especially with current standards.

I assume that every achievement must require the same amount of effort. But Pharah’s achievements are impossible to miss while Zen/Lucio/Doomfist are hardly possible even if you desperate to get them. It would be fair if DF ‘Cratered’ changed to 4 eliminations from Meteor or even to land all skills to one target (like Reinhardt’s).

Yeah I agree, 4 kills would be fine to everything is better then the current broken state.

I don’t mind it how it is. It’s a badge of honour. For those that know.

See I don’t think that’s fair. Example I’ve gotten Zenyatta’s Pixel spray. If Blizzard added and extra second to it to make it a little easier I would be fine with that.
I got it when it was hard and some got it while it was a bit easier. It’s like when you used to be able to Mercy’s Huge Rez for reviving 4 people at once. Now it’s revive 6 people without dying.
A little harder true but back then Mercy could rez 2 people with valkyrie. Now she has cast time to contend with. So it’s much harder.
I would have got Cratered multiple times if…
a. one person stuck with there team.
b. didn’t killed by one of my teammates prior.
c. leave the game.
d. played a sniper.
e. used an ability to escape the radius.
I’ve hit 5 people with a single Meteor Strike. That should be enough. Either set it to hit 5, get 3/4 kills with it or hit every team member with it but it doesn’t have to be a single strike.

honestly getting a 4-man kill with the ult is easier than just hitting 6 people

The achievement seems counter active to the use of the ult. Doomfist’s ult can be strong in small spaces but its best use to pinpoint 1 or maybe 2 people. It’s a small radius. Asking him to go for multiple people would be more appropriate if the ult was really large and did large amounts of knockback. The ult he has now would be better to have an achievement of kill 3 people or hit 4. My point is the achievement is promoting a use of his ult which is counteractive to its best use. Imagine if reinhardt had an achivement of knock 2 people of the map with his charge. Clearly not the best use of his charge and the achievement promotes it.
But if his charge could be done with his shield up and all those who were hit by it got massive knockedback itd make sense.

It’s more about Luck than difficulty, that is why this achievement is broken.
Too many things needs to align for you to get it even with an optimal party of Zarya and Sombra.
Example: Yesterday at the last point of Hanamura, I was in a huge team fight. All of the enemy team was in one spot. I can clearly see my Ult going down on all 6 targets, unfortunately our McCree did a deadeye and caught the enemy Mercy before I came down. We won as a team but I lost as an individual lol!
Either lower the number of targets or remove the “single use” requirement.
Achievement should be Skill based not Luck base.

Every achievement depends on luck in different degrees.
And that’s because it basically totally ignores the player’s ability, depending almost only in luck.
The Floor is Lava, for example, needs luck because as a support you are a priority target lots of times, but you learn how to stay alive and wait for your enemies to come near somewhere you can kill them. Cratered you just need to press Q at the right time, that being when Zarya’s ult didn’t get eaten/deflected, all the team is clustered together, none of them dies too fast, and none of them uses an immunity ability (and Moira is really popular now, so fade…).

If they’re gonna change this, they need to change Rapid Discord.

I agree. I have more of 40 hours trying to get this achievement, and i can’t get.
mandatory upvote whenever someone mentions this…
too many posts listing whats wrong with this achievement…bring it down to 4 or 5 and then you can actually attempt it…otherwise it literally takes miracle for the right conditions to even present themselves (easiest example - half the roster makes this achievement un-attemptable)
