About Ny'alotha, the Waking City
Ny'alotha, the Sleeping City, has awakened. Under N'Zoth's command, the armies of the Black Empire threaten to engulf the world and reshape it according to their master's vision. Only one hope remains: using the repaired titan forges to eradicate the Corruptor once and for all. But in order to target N'Zoth with the forges' power, the champions of Azeroth must venture deep into the horrific realm for one final confrontation against the Old God.
From the in-game Adventure Guide.

Dps boss to 50% or so, then wait for 2 air phases. I recommend specing into barrage for this achievement.
Once the Crackling Shards spawn, line yourself up to hit the most shards possible, pop cd's and barrage.
Achievement turns from red to white.
Kill the boss.
Achievement involves killing 10 of the big stalagmite looking Crackling Shards within 3secs.
Chances are, best way to do this is using the 3 Scales that drop from Wrathion (that you have to soak and use to kill the shards), and just being fast with them. Using Daemon Hunters or Monks for extra speed is probably the way to go.
You might even 'accidentally' get the achy by just doing the fight as normal tbh.
