easiest way to get this achievement
everyone stack in melee, and just dont interrupt the boss
he does his fire aoe first, and sense he is designed to endlessly cast this until he is interrupted, if you do NOT interrupt him, he will never cast shadow crash or even the life steal thing. hes stuck casting the AoE until he dies.
happy hunting
as a side note incase you came here for tips on 10man, this does NOT work in the 10man version. he does not endlessly cast his fire aoe in 10man.

Every raid member must dodge every Shadow Crash while killing Vezax on heroic mode. Vezax briefly switches target when casting Shadow Crash, giving aditional time to evacuate the point of impact. Note that DPS casters are advised to step into the buff field that is created after impact.
Probably irrelevant now, but a shadow crash hit a mage's Mirror Images and we still got the achievement.
Have 7 people be in ranged, any less than that and the melee will get shadow crashed. All other 18 should be in melee range. Don't kite at all, and just DPS. Those 7 people should stay spread out at all times, not even moving together for the shadow crash buff. They should also be max distance from the boss (40 yards) to have the most time to move from shadow crashes incoming. Make sure to bring down one saronite vapor so hard mode doesn't start.
Assuming the 7 people you chose were competent, then this achievement is pretty simple.
