So, how this achievement works - At the Laboratory of Mardivas, there is a weekly quest (The Laboratory of Mardivas) where you can summon an elemental and defeat it. Sometimes mobs in Nazjatar can drop Arcane Reagents that can be used at the laboratory to create different creatures: [item=169333] (which I will be referring to as Fire), [item=169332] (Water) and [item=169334] (Sand). Benthic items with the [spell=302381] effect grant an increased chance of looting these reagents from Nazjatar mobs.
There are 6 crystals where you can input reagents on, 3 greater crystals and 3 smaller crystals, and for each creation, you can add a reagent to either 1 smaller crystal, or 1 smaller and 1 greater crystal. After inputting any combination you'd like (or none at all), you create the elemental by confirming your choice in the Essence Amalgamator next to the crystal clusters.
This achievement requires you to invoke and defeat every single combination of elementals that can be created in the laboratory. You can only summon an elemental once a week yourself (if you die, the elemental despawns, but you can simply re-create the creature in the essence amalgamator, not losing your reagents in the process). As you get phased out of groups when on this quest, this will require 13 weeks of summons.
