Actually, it can be done with any combination of Tank/Healer/3DPS if nobody dies during the encounter; Just make sure you start nuking him as soon as he aggro. (i.e. You can't wait for tank's threat)
Also, his Shroud of Darkness can be dispelled and purged if you're having trouble healing this.
...One of the most exciting dps-race encounters in WoTLK 5-man.
PS: Nobody has pointed out the obvious yet... "A Void Dance" = "Avoidance".

About The Violet Hold
Among the ornate spires and enchanted streets of Dalaran, a dark presence stirs within the mighty walls of the Violet Hold. Long used to restrain threats to the city, the tower holds row upon row of deadly inmates, and it has been diligently watched over by the Kirin Tor. However, a sudden assault has tested the integrity of the hold, putting at risk the safety of everyone outside the prison's walls.

The first time we did this on Heroic, we had no idea how to kill the sentries, so we just beat the crap out of him.
When the achievement popped up, there was silence... followed by "We could have killed those things? %$#@!"
Start on this achievement early if you're going for the proto-drake. It seems like an easy one, because the fight is straightforward and VH is cake, but never underestimate the power of RNG. You will inevitably get umpteen heroic Cyanigosa kills without seeing Zuramat if you leave it for last.
Not that I'm bitter or anything...
