@asianantics:
If he's stated to be immune to physical attacks, he's immune to physical attacks. You don't need feats when nothing proves the statement wrong. There's nothing clearer then "Any type of attack against him is nullified, including physical damage," and "It cannot be pierced by power alone," If you want to hurt Achilles through his invincibility, you have to be divine. That's it. There's no work arounds. Saying he can be damaged by a powerful attack when the LN itself says he can't be hurt by any physical damage unless it's divine is just factually incorrect.
So could he tank a planet busting attack? Star busting?
Is it in character for Teach to immobilize instantly? And why would he go for Achilles specifically (unless the immobilization is AOE)? Is it possible to power through the immobilization or is it a mental attack? I'd like some context so I can properly counter.
Gravity powers were the very first thing he used against Ace so yes. Teach doesn't need to do it instantly either, he's so far above Achilles in stats that he can run through every option till he finds something that works. Considering he tanked hits from Whitebeard who's island busting Achilles isn't likely to hurt him.
Yes, Chiron reacted to a blitz from Achilles and it's stated why. Chiron is Achilles teacher and knows all of Achilles moves. Chiron also has foresight that lets him see things before they happen. That's why he can snipe Atalanta's A-Rank arrows out of the air while he's miles away from her. In the LN during the last Achilles Vs. Chiron fight, Chiron can't read Achilles when he's riding his chariot at all. He fails spectacularly when trying to snipe Achilles out of the sky and is constantly on the run. He only manages to hit Achilles after he made a prediction after running from Achilles the entire fight.
Not what I meant, at one point in the forst fight Chiron straight up dodges Achilles after he starts moving. Knowing Achilles' moves or having foresight wasn't a factor, he literally just got out of the way before Achilles could reach him
With speed equivalent to instant movement and not worrying about any obstacles in his way, Rider raced towards where the arrow was fired from.
There was suddenly a faint noise. It seemed the enemy had moved as well.

That is specifically thrown Gae Bolg. Cu's Gae Bolg while he holds the spear is unblockable. Thrown Gae Bolg is just physically stronger.
It's not, that line was in Heaven's Feel in Saber's Fight with Assassin. It compares fighting Assassin to Lancer and this is in relation to Saber so it's only talking about the heart stab. For that matter it mentions luck in the same passage. So this is not the thrown version.
"In that regard, Lancer's lance is appropriate to be called a Noble Phantasm.
A weapon that always strikes the heart cannot be blocked merely by knowing about it.
If one is to oppose that demonic lance, one must…
Prepare a shield overwhelming the magical energy of the lance,
have great enough luck to change the fate determined by the lance,
or prevent him from using the lance in the first place.

It's said to go up against it is to go up against the world. It has no offensive feats besides that statement so that statement is what you go by. Just because offensive Akhilleus Kosmos isn't specifically shown doesn't mean it does literally no damage. Where did you get that?
I didn't say it does no damage, I said we have no idea how powerful it is offensively. The primary function of the shield is defensive. "Going up against a world" is a metaphor, it's not literally a planet.
Bottom line is it's not hurting island level characters.
