When you enter the boss' room there is a large interactable Magma Vortex on the right hand side in the lava. You have to swim into the lava and down a little to be able to click it. When you do you'll get a debuff called [spell=411920] which does light ticking damage while you have the debuff.
In order to remove the debuff you need to get hit by the frontal breath the boss does, though it ticks many times so you should move out of the way after removing the debuff. Doing so will do ~25k damage to the whole raid so if you're doing it in a 30 man like we did, I'd recommend you clear in two sets. Once you successfully cleared your debuff, it will be replaced by [spell=411921] and you're safe to kill the boss.
It should be noted this is a personal achievement so you only have to clear your own plating to receive the achievement, meaning if you wanted you could "accidentally" get hit by the breath for a tick in your main raid and get it if you miss it in an achievement run.

Where: Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible
- Kazzara, the HellforgedAlthough Neltharion would not use them himself until much later, he experimented with elementium plating in the early days of Aberrus. The end result of elementium and shadowflame was Kazzara, who was deemed far too unstable for release. Driven mad by the excruciating pain of her elementium plates, she now serves as the guardian of the Shadowed Crucible.

About Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible
Millennia ago, Neltharion established Aberrus, a secret laboratory where he conducted world altering experiments. Recently rediscovered, Aberrus is now under attack from all sides as forces seeking to claim the Earth-Warder's legacy search for any power that remains. The champions of Azeroth must venture into the shadows and ensure Neltharion's dark power doesn't fall into the wrong hands.

Instructions for Kazzara - Before attacking Kazzara, everyone in the raid must go to the right, and in the lava there’s a fiery orb, click it to get the [spell=411920] debuff. When the fight starts, you need to stand a bit in Kazzara’s fiery frontal. The debuff will change to [spell=411921] and achievement requirements are now met. If you die from the frontal, the achievement will still count.
