Espera o Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos invocar os elementais.
Não mate os elementais e espere o boss usar a habilidade Correntes da Desgraça

Não quebre as correntes. Espere ele usar a habilidade O Rachacrânios. Quando ele usar (vocês vão levar bastante dano se forem level 85-) ele quebrará as correntes e matará os elementais.

É só repetir a estratégia até que 10 elementais sejam mortos

Comentado por Ailton

Você vai precisar de no mínimo 3 pessoas para esta conquista porque para cada jogador, ele evoca 1 add. Todo o grupo precisa ficar juntinho um do outro para levar dano do Tremor e então o boss evocar o add.
Acumule até 2 vezes, mas lembre-se de reduzir a vida do boss até 67%, depois de acumular bata nele até 66% para ele usar as Correntes. Depois reduza a vida do boss até 34%, acumule mais 2 vezes de add e bata no boss até 33% para usar as Correntes.
Obs.: Conte quantos add o boss mata na primeira vez e some com a segunda, se o resultado for 10 ou mais pode matá-lo.

Essa conquista se encontra no momento "bugada", Logo apos ele chamar os ads, o boss não usa o tremor e não mata os ads, já foi reportado para blizzard e nada no momento,

Edit: A blizzard corrigiu o "bug" agora já está funcionando :D e conseguir minha montaria :D, PS: conseguir eu e outra pessoa

Conquista funcionando 100%. Consegui fazer ela em duas pessoas. Os 2 jogadores no level 100 foi super fácil de fazer.

Comentado por lallau

É possivel fazer solo, observando os seguintes pontos:

1. Espere ele usar Tremor 5 vezes

2. Deixe ele com 66% de vida (segunda vez com 33%) para entrar na fase das Correntes da Desgraça, espere ele terminar o cast e matar os Elementais

3. Repita o processo

Alguns pontos para se observar:

Os Elementais tem tempo de vida, entao você tem tempo de acumular 5 elementais para usar nos 66% de vida
As vezes o Boss vai começar a usar Tremor e falhar, ainda nao entendi o que faz ele falhar, mas se ele falhar, pode matar todos os elementais que você conseguiu acumular e esperar ele sumonar 5 elementais pois quando ele tiver criando o 5º elemental, o 1º irá desaparecer.

Comentado por makako

essa conquista é praticamente impossível de ser feita solo! pois a skill tremor esta bugada! não é toda vez que ele casta que sumona o add!

For this Achievement (and Boss) you need really big DPS.

The Boss will cast The Skullcracker spell on 66% and 33%. He is also casting Quake.
This spell will summon 5 elementals with really big dps. You need to have boss on 66% hp when he will cast it. When he will pull you (Chains of Woe) and use The Skullcracker, he will kill all elementals around him (and you if you dont leave chains). You need do this twice to earn this achievement.

This Achievement is not easy to do but if you kill the boss, you will probably earn it because its easiest way to kill him.

Comentado por Tamika

make your tank gather all the elementals around the boss and use defensive cds to survive the skullcracker. Shield wall on first time and Last Stand on second should be enough to survive.

Comentado por 20394

In Heroic Mode, the boss will cast a quake that spawns an Angry Earth Elemental underneath each of your group members. He then chains the entire group next to him, and you must quickly kill the chains before you can move out of range. At the end of his channel, he will then use his Skullcracker ability to kill the entire set of Angry Earth Elementals as long as they remain close by.

Comentado por Hybr1d

The achievement bugged out on me twice. The first time we waited 2 quakes and let him kill them, 10 elementals, killed him but no achievement. Today, we let him cast 3 quakes, 2 ran out but he killed 13 elementals, no achievement.

Comentado por angelblack

Since the adds are elementals, Paladin tanks can also cast a glyphed Holy Wrath after destroying Chains of Woe to stun the adds in place and run away.

Comentado por silkfire

If I understood this right, the Angered Elementals have to survive from 66% to 33% of boss' health when he'll cast his Skullcracker again? Or can I do it at once?

Comentado por 270028

You just need to not dps the adds and snare them after you kill the chain. A mage's frost nova or paladin's glyphed holy wrath will do the trick.

Comentado por ameelia

You will not be awarded the Achievement until the boss is dead, which makes tracking a little difficult.

Comentado por Wooticus

For anyone crazy out there such as myself thinking about soloing this achievement, don't bother. Quake only spawns 1 Angered Earth per player and it seems they die automatically after about a minute resulting in you having a maximum of three up for any Chains of Woe.

In short: 3 adds max times 2 Chains of Woe in the encounter = 6 adds killed max, 4 short of the achievement.

Comentado por 1170578

Did this with two people yesterday. It is normally impossible like everyone is saying since he will only spawn one elemental per person and by the third quake the first ones will start despawning.

We ended up taking a third toon that I had and parking them by the boss. Pull the boss, Alt-F4 out to the other toon and if you are fast enough your other toon will still be there and he will spawn a third elemental. You'll have to do this twice though as he wont spawn the 3 elemental the second go around since your guy has been out too long.

Comentado por holybombis

If you are trying to solo this in MoP for the achievement of cata hero, I'd highly recommend bring at least 2 friends ( so there's 3 on your group) , Kite him without hitting him until he does quake he'll spawn adds according to the size of the group, meaning 3 adds ( if you did follow my advice :P) keep kiting him and the adds until he cast 2 quakes that will bring up a total of 6 elementals, dps him until he does chains of woe followed by Skullcracker, THEN STOP DPS'ING he will kill the adds now you'll need to kill 4 more to get the achievement, what you need to do is repeat the process, wait for 2 more quakes meaning 6 elementals, dps him to 33% he does chains of woe followed by Skullcracker and he will kill the adds.

Tips: Do not do AOE, and if you have the legendary dps cloak take it off

Note: The achievement is awarded when you kill the boss so don't frighten if you don't get it after he kills the adds.

P.D: Sorry for my english haha

Comentado por Glenmorange

This achievement CAN be 2-manned, we managed to do so yesterday with a friend.

Quick Facts:
*Rom'ogg used his Skullcracker ability at 66% and 33% HP.
*Rom'ogg spawned Angered Earth elementals after casting Quake at regular intervals.
*Rom'ogg spawns 1 single Angered Earth elemental per player in the instance.
*Angered Earth elementals despawn after 60 seconds or so.

HOW WE DID IT:
1) Bring Rom'ogg to 70% HP so you can down him to 66% fast when you need to.
2) Let him cast Quake three times. You should have 2x3= 6 elementals alive at this time
3) Quickly bring him down from 70% to 66% HP. If you do this fast enough, all 6 elementals will still be alive when he casts Skullcraker, and then they will die from it. You can easily survive the Skullcracker at 90, so you just have to stand still and let it hit you and kill the elementals along the way.
4) Repeat. Bring him to ~36% HP (so you can down him to 33% in a flash) and let him cast Quake a few times again to spawn the elementals.

Luckily we were fast enough to bring Rom'ogg from 70% to 66% in step 3, so we only needed 4 elementals after the first Skullcraker. It ended up being a very easy achievement and we didn't have to bring another person or anything.

WARNING: If you use any ability to erase your Threat, such as Fade or Feign Death, it won't spawn a Angered Elemental for you, so don't use them. It will only slow you down.

Hope it helps, and sorry for my bad english =)

I have just (29th Sep 2014) tried duoing this achivement with my friend, me being a Frost DK and him a Prot Warrior.

Things we have learned:

1.) The Angered Elementals will despawn after roughly 1 minute.
2.) If Quake's cooldown is off, the boss will not immediately cast Quake. He usually does a Mortal Strike and then cast Quake a few seconds after.
3.) If you parry / dodge / avoid the initial Quake ability, an Angered Elemental will NOT spawn. Using aggro reset abilities such as feign death, vanish, shadowmeld will result in the same effect.
3.) Not statistics, but it appears that the boss spawns the mobs slower between 66% and 33% so I would suggest waiting for 6 adds in the 1st phase, and then finish off with 4 adds on the 2nd phase.
4.) This fight with 2 people is a HUGE RNG. We had about 6 tries when the boss was casting the first Skullcracker, and in the last second, just before the cast finished 2 adds despawned. You need to be lucky with the cast timing of Quake, which is entirely up to the boss.
5.) DPSing the boss after each quake does not make a difference. You can just burst him down to 67% straight away, it works the same way as if you DPS slowly.
6.) The achivement is not awarded upon killing the 10 Angered Elementals, only after completing that criteria and then killing the boss.

After trying for almost 2 hours, we were ready to give up, when my friend came online, so we invited him and managed to do it straight away.

Yes, the achivement is doable 2-man but it is very difficult and there is a lot of RNG involved. If you can, just bring a 3rd person and it will be easy.

Good luck to you all!

As of the 6.0.2 pre patch (and the time of me posting this) he seems to no longer summon the elementals when he casts Quake. We confirmed we were on Heroic and confirmed we were actually taking damage from the quake ability. We filed a bug report, but I wanted to post this in case anyone else was running into a similar issue.

EDIT: As of Halloween, patch notes state that it should be fixed!

As of 10/11/2014 1657 AEST this is still broken.

This is the lovely reply I got from Blizzard after telling them it is bugged and for them to investigate.

The issue you reported is either something we are not able to assist with, or we are unable to verify that all of the criteria were met. At this time, we are not able to assist with granting progress or completion - you must research this issue to get credit.

I’d recommend checking out the criteria on one of our database fan-sites, such as (www.Wowhead.com). The comments section has a lot of helpful tips and information from other players, that can often times help clarify any missing details.

I’m very sorry that we are not able to directly assist here, but I wish you the best of luck. If you have further questions about this, please let us know. Otherwise, we thank you for your patience and hope you have a good rest of the day.

I put in a ticket on this achievement myself last week. It is the only achievement I can't get for the Glory of Cataclysm Hero. I've tried it several times, with different combinations of people in my party. Looking at this thread, I would think there is enough evidence that there is a problem.

Unless to get the achievement we have to do something other than what it is telling us to do.

This achievement being bugged is especially egregious because it was recently "fixed" as the adds weren't spawning at all, however the QA people didn't bother to actually retest for the achievement, which is the only reason anyone cares about this encounter. Furthermore, when people tried to tell them it wasn't working, people at Blizz wasted more time by responding to check the forums, wowhead, etc... for how to complete this achievement. I can understand if they don't have the time to fix bugs like this given how plagued with problems this expansion is, but when it's a part of a meta-achievement why not just REMOVE IT FROM THE META-ACHIEVEMENT, even if it's just until they can get this turd of an achievement fixed? This expansion was seriously embarrassing as far as technical issues go, and I have to wonder if they even have people working in the QA department anymore. Please submit tickets, bug reports, etc... en masse as they don't seem to be moving on this one.

Thanks for letting me know about this. I have personally investigated this for you and I was able to verify that the issue you were experiencing with Romo'gg Skullcracker's achievement Crushing Bones and Cracking Skulls is something that has been reported by a large number of other players as well.

Unfortunately with achievement that involve battle criteria like this, us Game Masters don't have the necessary tools to verify and grant the achievement, so this is something that will have to be hotfixed by the developers in the future.

I have added your report to the others that have already been forwarded on to our Quality Assurance team.

Comentado por jrwiley725

As of today's hotfixes (01/13/2015), this achievement is now soloable. Just completed on my shaman.

It does take a while to solo however. He has to hit you with quake 5 times IN A ROW. This can be quite difficult becuase of the level disparity at 100. If he misses, then you have to wait because one of the adds will despawn before there is 5 up.

However, once there is 5 adds up, you can dps him past 66% (or 33%), and he will kill the adds.

Overall, this achievement took about 5 minutes. I hoped this helped and best of luck to those trying to finish your meta!

Comentado por johnnyd2

2 pro tips for soloing this ach

1. face your back to him so the quake hits more
2. cast heals during quake so its more likely to hi

wouldve just gotten this, but poked him too much and killed him right when i would have gotten it X_X

Comentado por Organthrone

Phew, just got this achievement after two hours of failed attempts. The nice thing about it is whenever you screw up, you can run out and reset.

Soloed it on my 90 Monk healer. I cannot begin to emphasise that timing is everything here. By all means, knock him down to 70% (or if you're nervous like me, 68%) and wait for the Quakes to pile up. While's he's casting the fifth one, hit him to 66% and wait for the chains to cast. During this time, you need to have more or less stayed exactly where you pulled him to begin with. If he has to run too far to cast Chains of Woe, you lose precious seconds. On two separate attempts did one of the elementals despawn as he was casting The Skullcracker, and there is nothing more frustrating than that.

Once you've got the first five, repeat the process. Whack him down to 35% or so, and wait. Hit him down to 33% while the fifth Quake is being cast, he'll then cast Chains again, and if you've executed it accordingly, you'll snag the other half to make ten, and then you can beat him down to your heart's content.

I didn't realise I've been waiting three months to do this. Best of luck to everyone out there now rounding off the Glory achievement. The effort finally pays off.

WooHoo! Waited so long for this, should rename it Long Strange Trip 2 :)

Took me a while to realise this, and I think it's what is making some people still think it can't be solo'd:

The Angered earth adds ONLY spawn when quake actually hits you, so cos we're too high level for it sometimes he does quake but it doesn't actually hit you! If that happens, I just kill the other adds off and start waiting again for adds to pile up.

You MUST get 5 adds in a row, one for every quake, if a quake hits but no add spawns, it takes too long as once an add spawns it only lasts thru another 4 quakes.

I set the 1st add to focus target,just so I knew the 1st was still alive when the 5th spawned. Then at 4 adds, when quake hits again, as soon as I see the ground break for the add to rise I hit Rom again below 66% or 33% to start the chains/skullcracker sequence.

Totally the hardest part is getting the damage/hits on Rom right as it's so easy to hit him too hard at iLvl 650, but still wanted to be able to one-shot him below the 66%

Comentado por Wheeljack

While this achievement technically is soloable, it is infinitely easier if you bring another player with you. Especially if you both are in the 90-96 level range.

Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos spawns one Terra Enfurecida elemental pr player that takes damage from Tremor.
Since these elementals despawn after a given time, the more you get pr quake, the easier it is. I tried this alot solo, but by the time the last elemental spawned, the first one usually despawned. Either that or he despawned in the middle of the boss casting Skullcracker. Frustrating.

Here's how I did it:
Went into Blackrock Caverns with a level 94 priest alt and a guildie's level 95 hunter alt. Damaged the boss slightly and then simply turned my back at him and the hunter only stood close enough to be hit by Quake. Did no damage at all during this phase and healed as needed.

After 3x Tremor we had 6 elementals, and I damaged the boss abit more until he cast Correntes da Desgraça and locked me in place. The elementals followed and were decimated when he cast O Rachacrânios
Repeated the process one more time and promptly killed the boss.

Rachando crânios e esmagando ossos was all I missed (like many others) for Glória do Herói do Cataclismo which grants Rédeas do Draco de Pedra Vulcânico.

Comentado por brothernads

Got this achievement today solo (level 100 ret paladin).

Here are some things I did that might help you:

- Take off all your armor and weapons: this will help control how much damage you do to Rom'ogg, as you don't want to push him past 66% or 33% until you have 5 adds up.

- Turn off Seal of Truth (aka don't use any DoTs): when you're damaging Rom'ogg, you don't want Censure to apply to him and keep ticking to make him cast Skullcracker before you're ready. Also turn off autoattack just in case!

- Face away from Rom'ogg while he casts Quake and the adds build up: I don't know if this is correct, but it might help if Quake misses you or you dodge it. I never saw Quake miss, but this can't hurt.

- Hold Rom'ogg roughly halfway between the entrance to the room and the cage that he patrols to: right before he casts Skullcracker, he moves to a particular spot in the room. The less time it takes him to move before starting the cast, gives you that much more time for the adds to be alive before they start despawning. I had one try where the first add despawned right before Skullcracker hit - the boss took too much time to run to his spot which made the difference.

- Turn on the NPC nameplates (V key): this makes it easier to tell how many adds are up, as you need to have five up before you push him to 66% / 33%.

Good luck!

Some info which might help players regarding the quake and adds if you solo this.

The adds 'live' for a certain amount of time. Now, for that very reason, it's very important that you don't actually miss a quake and thus lose a spawn.

Now you would think, no matter, i'll wait for the next quake. And altough you can wait, you missed a spawn but the timers keep running for the other ones. So, when the next spawn does pop-up, your first spawn will die before you can get the boss to kill them all; the next spawn, the second spawn will now die to soon, etc etc.

As such, and the TL;DR version of it: You need to wait for 5 spawns in a row without missing a quake in order to get 5 killed.

Comentado por 1252843

I just did the achieve, I can confirm it works again. It takes A LOT of patience. You need to be sure you have 5 elementals active when you get him to do the skullcracker, because he only does it twice. I tried to avoid any damage at all until I had 5 up. It takes a while for them to spawn because not every quake spawns them, and they despawn if it takes too long. If you think you messed up, just run out and run back in before he dies. Good luck!

Comentado por Faceroast

For everyone having trouble getting hit by the quakes, here's what worked for me.

Make a macro of /kneel or /sit and put it on something you can spam (I put it on "X"). Grom uses his skullcracker twice. Once at 66%hp and once at 33%hp. I figured my damage was way too high for him to do controlled bits of damage before he reaches 66% and 33% so I unequiped my weapon.

As you enter the fight start spamming your /kneel or /sit macro. You will notice that ALL quakes hit you now providing an Angered Earth with each quake. Once you have 5 AE's up (easier to see when enemy health bars are shown, I suggest you activate that in your UI settings) hit grom with anything that gets him just below 66%. He will use his skullcracker and kill the 5 AE's.

Once he killed the AE's rinse and repeat all the above and when you have a 2nd batch of 5 AE's up hit him to just below 33%. He skullcracks again and another 5 AE's go down. Kill Grom once they are down and enjoy your new beautiful mount!

1. Position yourself halfway between the left hand purple brazier in front of the cage and the 4 stacked boxes in front of some lava - this is where he will port you to do Correntes da Desgraça and then O Rachacrânios

2. Equip only a white 1h weapon for dmg down to 66% and 33% or you can accidentally do back to back Skullcrackers. I use Adaga do Acólito in 1h so i can score a combo point for healing.

3. Try and position yourself between Rom'ogg and the Angered Earth so they hit your front and him your back - should reduce the damage worries.

4. Make a /sit macro and be ready to press it when you see him about to do Tremor so it hits you in the back - you need 5 hits in a row as they will despawn just before the 6th in my experience. Far more likely to hit if you are sitting. If you have one miss in the middle then every Angered Earth spawned before that will despawn before you have 5 i.e. start again from 1.

5. Macro for Rotten to the Core posted by shawry for counting the number of Nameplates on screen is very useful for when you are stunned by Correntes da Desgraça. Make sure nameplates are on, all mobs are on screen and the count should be 7 for a successful 5 Angered Earth Kill (Rom'ogg + Chains of Woe + 5 Angered Earth). Here's the macro for you to make a button

/run local count = 0 for i = 0, 10000, 1 do if _G ~= nil and _G:IsVisible() then count = count + 1 end end print(count)

Actually, this achievement doesn't work. It doesn't give achievement credit kill after he used skullcrusher ability. So he doesn't even damage elemental ads. It doesn't work like at the end of mop for this day, it's atm the only achievement that doesn't work for "Glory of the Cataclysm Hero".

Solo'd as a level 100 Hunter about an hour ago from the time of this post. As Organthrone and a few others posted, timing is what it takes. Nearly impeccable at that.

First, get naked. Yup... naked. No rings or trinkets. Use buffs or stat items to increase health, if necessary, or a pet with a stat increase buff. If you use a pet, put it on passive. This is important as your pet will one shot anything in here.

If you're a hunter and worry about incoming damage with such low health being naked, spec into Spirit Bond as that healing will more than suffice.

Second, make a /sit macro and bind it. Since you're naked, /sit will register a hit from Quake almost every time allowing you to spawn all the elementals you need.

I used another macro (/tar Rom) to ensure I was hitting the boss after Chains of Woe since the elementals will register hits because you're naked, thus targeting them instead of Rom. This helped tremendously since I use my own custom addon that enables sticky targeting upon entering combat, and tab targeting takes away precious seconds you need for the elementals.

Now for the fun part...

Start by bringing Rom's health to about 70%. Being naked I opted for 69% (giggity) since I was punching him. As soon as you see Quake being cast, hit your sit macro and an elemental will spawn. If done right, after 5 successful Quake's, you should have 5 Angered Earth elementals with about 10 seconds left before the first one that spawned disappears. This is where timing is everything.

Bring him down to 66% fast, target Chains of Woe (one hit kill even while naked) and run to Rom as fast as possible. He'll cast Skullcracker and, if done right with tight timing, all 5 elementals will go down.

Rinse and repeat for the second Chains of Woe at 33%, bringing Rom down to 38% while sit spawning elementals from Quake, and you should have your new achievement.

TL,DR: Get naked, bring to 66%, sit on Quake, Skullcracker on 5 elementals, rinse, repeat and GG.

Just finished this achievement solo i guess it was fixed. Took awhile but eventually he spawned 5 angered earth, then i got him to do first skullcracker killing them and then repeated once more.

Tried this achieve quite a few times in the past and it never worked for me.

As of Feb 8th 2015:

I tried soloing it with rez sickness (left armor on so I wouldn't die as quickly). I still died. Tried using ice barrier. Still died. Also, each quake (but not every quake) only spawned 1 Angered Elemental.

I had a healer join me (only to heal me).
Got the achievement in a matter of minutes.

Each quake spawned at least 3 Angered Elementals.
I was still under rez sickness.

Done and done.

A huge thank you to Blizz for fixing this!

After many failed attempts to complete this achievement, I have finally earned my beautiful Drake. One of the reasons I constantly failed to earn this achievement was due to the elementals despawning. Today I had the idea to mark each elemental as it spawned (i.e. first one to spawn mark with skull, second mark with X, etc.), and as soon as the 5th one spawned immidiately push to Skullcracker (i used a macro to target boss then auto attack). when it comes time for the Skullcracker, if the skull mark is still there, you will get credit for all 5 and just repeat for the next 5. if any quakes miss, just clear all the elementals that have spawned so you don't have to completely reset the fight, because 5 in a row need to hit in order to get credit for all 5. Also try to have the boss standing where he will put you for Chains of Woe, to minimize the time between it and Skullcracker. Every second counts.

Comentado por PatchEu

Take a friend. While this is technically possible to solo, there is a lot of RNG involved. You need the boss to cast Quake almost as soon as the ability is off cooldown, throughout the fight, to have 5 adds up for each Skullcracker. This is assuming that you're already trying it naked and spamming /sit so he can always hit you.

I tried this for about an hour alone, and just one or two occasions where he doesn't cast as soon as possible, your first add will despawn before you can trigger the Skullcracker with five adds up.

With two people it's trivial, you should get two adds with every Quake and you can push to the Skullcracker after only 3 waves, when solo you need to wait for five waves.

Just ask a friend to help and you can be done in 5 minutes.

Comentado por 421539

Because the maximum level now is 100, the boss' abilities will miss alot. When the ability Quake misses, it does not spawn adds, which is crucial to the achievement as the adds will despawn after a short while. I would recommend bringing someone who is about level 90, so the boss' ability will not miss and therefore will spawn an add everytime it's cast.

Lvl 100 Ret Pally, I found the best advice to be to set focus on the first add that spawned and to start punching Rom down as the 5th add spawned (took off my weapon and just bare-knuckled him). Having focus set on the first add assures you that he is still up when the 5th one spawns so that you can start punching Rom. As also said below, if one of his quakes misses you and no add spawns, kill the ones that are up and start over from one. I just ran out of the instance to reset him when I accidentally triggered a skullcracker too soon.

Comentado por AgentSnuggles

I attempted this achievement with a friend.

-We got him down to 70% health. Waited for quake to cast 3 times. That spawned six elementals. We shot him down to 66 health at that point, he cast Skullcrusher and it killed the elementals.
-Got him down to 36% health. He cast quake 2 times, spawning 4 elementals. The got him to 33% health so he'd cast skullcrusher, and he did, and it killed the 4 elementals.
-That made 10, so we killed him.

However, We did not get the achievement.

I messaged a CSR and a rep named Vepolis told me that it is bugged and some people aren't recieving the achievement. Sigh.

I'm still going to try it again, though, and see what happens.

Comentado por PaYnE18

Damn this one was hard, I did this steps in order to make it.

1 - Remove your gear, maybe use health pots or something so you dont die ( this is if you are lvl100, because if you have all the gear you will dodge everything.

2 - Make 2 macros /sit and /tar Rom , sit is when the boss is casting Quake you use the macro exactly when he is casting and it should spawn the elemental, target Rom is when you need to attack the boss just to get him below 66% and 33%, you really need the macro so you can get him below 66% as fast as possible because the elemental will dissapear if not fast enough.

3 - Pull him, get him to like 68% ( try to get him kind of close to the entrance of his area, because that's where he will start casting Chain of Woe and Skullcracker )

4 - Wait him to cast Quake, exactly when he is casting it use the /sit macro and the elemental should spawn

5 - When the elemental spawn I use icons on them, but the most important one to put the icon is the FIRST one that spawns, that way you will
know if he is alive when the boss cast Skullcracker to kill all of them, 5 elementals need to be alive when the boss cast that ability so it kills them

6 - Same as #4 do this 5 times so you can have 5 elementals alive

7 - Just exactly when you have 5 elementals, use the /tar Rom macro and get him below 66% as fast as possible, he will cast Chains of Woe, when he finishes casting that you will see a chain next to the boss, attack it as fast as possible it dies instantly and then he will start casting Skullcracker which is the one that will kill the elementals, when he is casting it just make sure the 5 elementals are alive so at the end they all die with the ability, that's why is good to put an Icon on the first elemental, that way you know the fist one is alive and if the first is alive all of them should be.

8 - Get him to like 37% and repeat the process one more time then just kill the boss.

Comentado por Anyiel

Soloed as lvl 100 hunter.

Here's what I did:

I chose to go with pet strategy. I got naked (I only left my bow on)

I let my pet hit the boss to about 70%, then put it on passive. The pet ran to me and the boss ran with it.

Then I waited for quakes. I also used /sit macro as many ppl have suggested here - worked perfectly.

5 quakes - 5 Angered Earths.

After the last quake (5th, when the last AE is gonna spawn) let your pet hit the boss to 66% and then put it on passive again.

The boss casts Chains of Woe. Kill the chains (you one shot them easily) and run to boss.

If any of your AEs had time to despawn, you can feign death now and start over. Don't bother to try to gather 6 next time, won't work.

If you managed to get 5 killed by Skullcracker, you can rinse and repeat and after the next successful round you can oneshot the boss.

This was a real pain in the ass for me, but I suggest to use DBM and RA and any other helpful addons. Makes this a lot easier.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##Kangi##DELIM##

For some reason this is not working for me. I get all the elementals spawn, I do have 5 at the time when Rom'ogg throws the chains on me but after freeing myself from the chains and getting the elementals close to the boss to get killed, those kills won't get counted. I tried this now with 5 chars, killing 10 elementals the way the achi requires but it won't give me any credit. Has anyone else faced this problem and knows the solution?

Comentado por trigbits

I just spent several hours trying to do this. (AND FINALLY GOT IT!)

#1. Quake spawns the adds that you need to have him kill
#2. The adds have EXACTLY 2 minute timers before they despawn

The trick is getting 5 adds to spawn and then bringing him down to 66% hp so that he will kill the 5 adds. If you get your fifth added any later that 1:40 seconds after the first one spawned, you'll be cutting it close since it takes time for him to cast his ability. If you've gotten lucky enough to get it to work, then you have to do it again and push him to 33% for the second 5 adds since you'll need a total of 10.

It's a pain the butt since sometimes Quake doesn't spawn an add (not sure why). if one of your 5 adds does not spawn, then you need to kill all of the adds and wait for him to spawn another one and start from there (it's sucks, I know). Ideally you'll get your fifth add right at about 1:40 seconds. I recommend you use the in-game timer to keep track. Start it right when the first add has fully spawned.

If you fail, just run out of the instance, since killing the boss will force you to wait for reset.

Good luck

Comentado por AldursApprentice

I did this, after several attempts, with the macros for sit and tar chains. The important thing is to check "Stop Auto Attack" in your interface; otherwise, when you click the macro to target the chains and kill that, you will automatically attack an elemental and one-shot it. I didn't have to take off gear, just spammed sit while he was casting Quake and got all 5 elementals for each phase. After I stopped my auto attack, I got it on the first try. Hope this helps.

Comentado por yellowfeverWow

Some tips:

I used DBM for this achievement and I entered the fight only with one-hand and shield. When Quake CD was expiring (every 12 secs according to DBM) I was spamming my /sit macro. This way the boss could land some hits on me and the Angered Earths were spawning normally.

Comentado por shchmue

Monks, go Brewmaster. Let a Black Ox Statue tank the boss and adds. Sit down for Quake. The Statue guarantees that you're not getting hit so you stay seated.

A /timer is handy as he can be lazy on the quakes and you don't want the first add to hit 2 minutes and despawn before 5 have spawned and it's time to force Rom'ogg to cast chains.

I took off a few pieces of gear and equipped a Mining Pick, and also only used Crackling Jade Lightning to deal damage as it's slow and much easier to stop than autoattacks.

I wouldn't recommend soloing this, I brought two friends with me and had them spam /sit by the boss while I did everything. Easy peasy. The more people in the group, the more spawns you'll get. We got three spawns at a time everytime he did his quake thing and it worked out great!

Comentado por VIVIsectVI

Just soloed as an arcane mage. I took off rings, trinkets, and neck to do less damage. I only used 3 buttons for this fight, a /sit macro, Ice Barrier, and Arcane Barrage. Pull the boss with Arcane Barrage. That should put him around 80% - 86% depending on your gear. Melee him down to around 75% (my staff hits took off ~2% per hit).

He should be ready to cast Quake any second now. Hit the /sit macro as soon as he starts to cast. I don't know the reason behind the /sit macro, I just know that it works. If you hit it correctly 5 times in a row, you'll have 5 adds and the boss attacking you. Hit him with Arcane Barrage again to drop him below 66% health and he'll cast Chains of Woe. Arcane Barrage the prison and move near the boss. If you're quick, he'll drop all 5 adds with his cleave attack.

Now use Arcane Barrage/melee to take him down to around 40% health. When you have 5 adds, Arcane Barrage him to under 33% so he casts Chains of Woe again. Kill prison, move in close, and he'll drop all 5 adds if you were quick.

It took me a few tries because he would take longer in between quakes and an add would expire. I popped Invis and started over. I use the addon called RaidAchievement which was supposed to track this achievement, but it didn't notify me when the 10 adds were killed. Don't use this addon as a crutch, pay attention to expiring adds and be ready to reset. Overall I think I spent 15 minutes working on it.

I came on here and read all of the comments, all of which made the whole achievement sound like a pain in the backside to solo. So I got a friend to come with me to help.

We managed to complete the achievement first go, it really is a lot more straight forward than it seems.

As a level 100 remove your weapon and any trinkets that cause uncontrolled/proc damage (aka: Discordant Chorus) or DoT trinkets (aka: Empty Drinking Horn) - as you highly risk killing him by accident otherwise.
Make a /sit macro and keybind it to your mouse or keyboard - this makes spamming the key much easier and no fussing to find the macro on your bar.
Begin the encounter, but first clear the room as much as possible before pulling the boss and turning your back on him. Wait for him to begin to cast Quake and start spamming the /sit macro straight away. (we waited for two quakes and six adds to spawn before continuing to the next stage)
You can now punch the boss down to around 66%, which causes him to cast chains on you, which you break. If you bring a friend stack on top of each other and let him cast his skullcracker ability killing the ange/red earth.
Repeat the first stage again and once you have the remaining adds to reach the achievement (10 in total) punch the boss down to 33% which will trigger chains and the skullcracker ability for the second time.
Once you have done this you can now kill the boss. Voila!

You can do more than 1 quake per phase, so if the first quake only gives you two adds for example - you can do another to obtain more before continuing to skullcracker. I also had no adds "time out" or despawn despite having six adds up and killed on 1 phase.

Have fun and enjoy doing the achievements :)

It is definitely soloable = 10-20 min. 100 DK:

1) Strip down a little so you can hit him like 5% per hit
2) Bring boss down to 70%
3) Face backward to boss and when he cast quake sit down (macro or keybind) to evoke an elemental.
4) You need 5 consecutive evokes to have 5 elementals.
5) Kick the boss under 66% (you have 20 seconds to do it). He will cast chain – broke it and bring the elementals before him so he can cleave them down.
6) Heal if you need (e.g. DK death pack)
7) Bring boss down to 40%
8) Repeat step 3 and 4.
9) Kick the boss under 33%. He will cast chain – broke it and bring the elementals before him so he can cleave them down.
10) Kill boss

I solo'd this a few times over 4 days on a L100 Hunter and a L100 Prot Warrior before getting the achieve. Its been mentioned that there isn't enough time to waste on anything. I have to emphasize that. If an elemental doesn't spawn when you sit (except the 1st one in group of 5), then run out or feign death, etc to reset the encounter. When you get the 5th elemental there is no time to waste. So. despite the previous recommendations about the health to bring Rom'ogg to; a better method is to bring him to no more than 2 hits away from 66% (1st group) or 33% (2nd group); because if you have to hit him more than twice to trigger the chains, you will likely run out of time. As soon as you have sat down for the 5th elemental in each group of 5, don't hesitate. Immediately turn around, target Rom and hit him twice to trigger the chains. Any instant spell/cast is probably best to trigger the chains.
I finally got the achieve on my solo Prot Warrior using food and flask stamina buffs, and taking a healing potion after the 1st chains.

Rachando crânios e esmagando ossos is soloable, but the timing is tight. The Angered Earths only last long enough for 5 to be active at once - by the time a 6th is summoned, the 1st despawns. Quake also appears to need to hit the player to spawn the add (no add if blocked/parried/missed/etc). As Chains of Woe is only cast twice (at 66% and 33% health), 5 adds must be killed each time.

My strategy went as follows:

Tag the boss for light damage (do NOT reach 66%; DoTs/Pets = bad idea)
Turn your back to the boss, hit ESC to disengage
Mark each of the first 4 adds with Skull/Cross/etc for easy tracking
As soon as 5th spawn confirmed, damage boss to 66%, kite adds in close, and let the boss kill them with The Skullcracker
Rinse + repeat for 33%
Achieve greatness

I found turning my back to the boss ~~ensured~~ improved chances an add would spawn, whereas when facing the boss, they occasionally didn't, and I would have to start from scratch again. I assume the damage from Quake spawns an add for each player it hits, thus a mitigated attack results in no add, and soloing results in less adds then a group attempt. I also found it important to bring the boss down to 66% / 33% as soon as the 5th add was confirmed, as the time it takes for him to cast The Skullcracker can cut really close to the despawn timer (thus taking time to mark the 5th add is not advised).

Edit: Ran through on another character, came up with a few more points:

Sometimes, despite your best efforts:

all 3 ticks of Quake miss and no add spawns. If this happens, clear all Angered Earths and start building them up again
the boss doesn't cast Chains of Woe on cooldown. If you notice it taking much longer than usual, clear all Angered Earths and start building them up again
an Angered Earth despawns before getting killed by The Skullcracker after Chains of Woe has been cast. Here is where having each add marked helps, as the one marked with Skull should be the one to watch out for. If this happens, it's a wipe. The bridge full of Evolved Twilight Zealots is helpful to this effect.

Running someone with non-combat or passive self-heals like Ysera's Gift is helpful for long unlucky streaks.

Good luck to everyone hunting Glory of the Cataclysm Hero, and enjoy your new drake!

As a 110 Shaman I took off all my armour and weapons, and still one shot him with a single right click. How on earth do I do this achievement!

Comentado por swotam

Got this done today as a 100 BM Hunter. I put the pet away and used the /sit strategy that others have listed. It took numerous attempts to get him to take down 5 elementals before the first one de-spawned, and I ended up putting a raid marker on the first one so that I could ensure it was still up when he triggered Skullcracker. I'd say I probably had to try 15+ times before I got it done. It was pretty frustrating at times, since more often than not the first elemental would de-spawn before Skullcracker was cast, but eventually I got it.

So, if you're trying to solo this just keep at it and keep an eye on that first elemental. Eventually, you'll get it done.

Finally managed to get this as a 110 lvl toon! The issue at this lvl is that Quake just won't hit you 100%, even with rez sickness. There is, however, a way to get this achievement without rolling a new char.

First, make sure you're in the HC version of the instance, otherwise you'll simply one-shot the boss and waste your time. Secondly, clear trash, then take off all gear and pull boss. Stand with your back towards him and keep an eye out for his Quake cast (having DBM installed makes things easier). When he casts Quake, hit your Sit button. If you are in sync, the add will spawn every single time. If you miss the cast, kill all adds and start over (each add will stay up for 5 Quakes and then despawn at the 6th). Slap the boss down to 66% after 5 adds have spawned and let his Skullcracker ability kill them.

Repeat this whole thing once more, bringing boss down to 33% for the 2nd Skullcracker.

I have just completed this achievement so I want to share my experience.

First of all I think you can do this achievement with all of the classes but tanks. Really, just stay away from tanks if you want to do this achi easily. Tanks have parry/dodge even if you are naked. so, these stat's may prevent you taking damage from Tremor so if you can't get hit from it, adds couldn't spawn. I tried this achi with nearly all of my toons and from my experience most suitable class is druid. Self regeneration is awesome. I got hit but my health didn't go low even I was naked. So here is the steps;

1- unequipped all of your gears which increase your main stats (str, agi, int) around 10k for main stats is good.
note: if mastery (or anything) increase your attack power, unequipped them too.

2-make /kneel and /auto attack macro and set them to any button which is ok to you for spamming. Auto attack macro for easy dmg to boss.

3-pull boss and decrease his health to around 70% but be careful 66% is limit for first Correntes da Desgraça so don't go down further. For second one is 33%.

4- spam /kneel macro and be sure getting hit from every each of Tremor if you missed one restart from beginning. If you get hit by Tremor, adds will be spawned.

5-after 5 adds get the boss's healt below 66% so he will cast Correntes da Desgraça. Just wait until he cast O Rachacrânios.

6-repeat all the progress; spam kneel, get hit etc.

Note: achievement is complete after when boss is down. So, be sure the number of adds.

Should you fail, try again tomorrow :/

I have done it today with my buddy. After several solo attempts, I thought that this achievement was nowhere near obtainable. I spoke to a GM who advised me to do it in group. As per his guidance, we tried. Totally worth. Important note - when the boss casts quake, he spawns 1 Angered Earth per player (applies to those players who get hit by quake ability). Remember to spam your /sit macro to ensure the hit. 1st phase got us 6 Angered Earths, 2nd phase got us 5. Also, Angered Earth keeps despawning. Good luck!

this is by far the Hardest achievement of the Entire Cataclysm... i know that's probably not what you want to hear... but that's how it is.

however if you stick to the strategy and do exactly as instructed... you can easily get it in 5-10 minutes. so here we go:

1. Unequip all of your gear... go completely naked. make a : /sit , macro and put it somewhere close to spam click. the boss will spawn from a bridge platform... where behind him theres a beast called kaz the mad... go to the boss... do not attack him at all... just move around him until he starts to attack you...

2. now bring him into a flat area ! , and turn your face from boss... now set focus on the boss , and stand there and wait for the boss to do his first : Tremor , just as soon as you see him casting the spell... use your /sit , macro... if you do it correctly a mob will appear by the name of : Angered earth , you need a total of 10 of these mobs killed for the achievement...

3. exactly after he is done channeling his Tremor , you need to start counting to 20 seconds... each 20 sec , he will repeat this ability again... and you need to spam click your /sit macro, just then ... and if you are sitted whilst he begun channeling the ability... then you will get your next angered spirit.

4. DO NOT KILL THE ANGERED SPIRITS , just let them spawn and stack them... when you have exactly 5 angered spirits spawned , and while completely naked , attack the boss to 66% of his health... then immediately stop attacking and press escape to lose target... the boss will run to the area , right infront of the bridge platform where he spawns first ( or start moving from) , and infront of the left twilight brazier (to your left if you are facing kaz the mad) , he will bind you and starts casting: Correntes da Desgraça , and the angered spirits come to you... do not do anything whilst the boss has binded you ( you can attack close enemies which you should avoid)... wait for him to finish his cast... when his cast is finished... he will immediately kill all the angered spirits... thats 5 of the angered spirits you needed for the achievement down !

5. stand in the place boss binded you... so that the next time you decrease the time he takes to go to the position... because the angered spirits might get disappeared withouht being killed... and just a few seconds after the 5th add was summoned...

6. if you see any of the adds did not spawn following a Tremor , then kill all the angered spirits and try again... however if you have killed the first 5 , you do not need to restart the encounter... simply kill all the summoned angered spirits and start fresh... whilst still continuing the encounter...

7. and finally , remember: the boss only goes into: Correntes da Desgraça , only twice ... once at 66% health , and second time at 33% health , make sure you kill 5 angered spirits each time... so that you have your 10 for the achieve... otherwise there will be no other way to kill enough angered spirits and you need to start fresh...

and if i did not pressed on this hard enough: if you have successfully killed 5 angered spirits in the first phase... you do not need to start fresh , if you miss any of the angered spirits , in the phase 2... simply kill all the rest , and start spawning them again , whilst still continuing the encounter...

Good luck to anyone trying this !

Soloer note: there is some variance in the cast timer. If you notice him pausing too long between too, sadly you should restart your 5-count from that point. You need the 5 to be spaced very close to together. A way to verify is to look at the corpses after he kills them and make sure there are 5 corpses. If not, run out and reset it.

For all trying to get this.at 110. Some tips.

1) MAKE SURE YOU DON"T HAVE IT ALREADY. I spent an hour doing it (correctly), but didn't get the achiv. I got it 4 years ago and didn't check.
2) You can wear all of your 110 gear no problem. As a priest, I noticed if I shield and spam a sit macro that's the best indication. Also after the quake timer if there is a second cast it means you are successful.
3) If you do say 2 quakes in a row and miss one, you then need to get 5 in a row again, because the elementals will despawn after 5 quakes.
4) You want to slap the boss around where he's going to shackle you, so the add will be able to get to you in time.
5) If you didn't get it the first time he casts (or dps him too much...) just run out of the instance to reset him.

Just solo'd this today with my 110 hunter. Make sure you have it set so health bars show percentages. Options > Interface > Status Text > Display Percentages. Take off all gear and see what dmg you do punching him. Feign death if you can't hit him to get him between 70-66% Add a piece of gear and try again to find the perfect piece to allow you to punch him without causing premature Skullcracker. I added my gloves and was punching him for 15% each hit so it was perfect. Although this is after trying repeatedly to solo with a 110 Demon Hunter (he punches too hard) and a 95 Paladin (swore he had it but nope) If you don't have a class with feign death just run out and reset if you are trying to find the right punching power as a 110. I used the others advice and made a /sit macro and thought spamming it while waiting for quake would go off would be easiest but just click it once when he starts to cast Quake for best results. If you use dbm its about 6 seconds after the timer ends for quake. My first comment! Logged in just to make this so I hope it helps!

This achievement is bugged again.
The skullcracker ability won't kill the elementals.

Comentado por TheZoog

This achieve took me 7 years to get and bites major ass. Here is how to do it and here is what can go wrong when you are soloing it.

#1 THE SET UP: You need him to kill the 10 Angered Earth with his Skullcracker ability which he only uses twice in the fight - once after he drops below 66% and once when he drops below 33% health. At these two % he will summon the Chains of Woe which you must kill and then he does his slow Skullcracker attack. To Solo this, you must create a /Sit macro, get completely naked and set health percentages = Options > Interface > Status Text >Display Percentages. You clear the room of trash, set Focus on the boss and then aggro him. Punch him a twice and he is at 70%. Now turn your back to him. He does zero damage to you as the fight drags on. Now for the nitty gritty.

#2 THE NITTY GRITTY: You need to watch his cast bar. Approximately every 15 seconds or so, he casts Quake. You must hit your /Sit macro exactly HALWAY THROUGH the Quake. If you sit too soon or too late, he likely will not summon an Angered Earth. You need five Angered Earth's in a row or you must kill them and start over. If you accidentally bring the boss below 66% in the process, simply run out and Reset the Instance and start over. Once you have five Angered Earth, you must punch him once to take him below 66%, then take your focus off of him. He will cast Chains of Woe - kill that and then he casts his slow Skullcracker. I hit the /Sit macro again just to be sure. When he kills them, make sure there are five skeletons. If so, then punch him again to take him down to 40% and repeat the steps above.

THE **PROBLEMS:

**On some attempts, about 25% to 33% of his fracking Quakes do not summon an Angered Earth. Sometimes you sat too soon, but also there are also two types of Quake - you can see that the successful ones have two reverberation rings, whereas the unsuccesful ones only have one reverberation ring. It was just a !@#$ty achieve from the very beginning based mostly on stupid RNG. Sometimes you won't even sit and his Quake summons an elemental. If you missed one of the five-in-a-row you must get, then target them and punch em to death and start over or run out and Reset.

**The texture of the floor is layered and sometimes half the Quake is covered up by a overlapping texture. So you need to position yourself perfectly to see the whole thing and angle your camera so you are looking straight down.

**During that slooooowwww Skullcracker cast, one of your five elementals dies because their health is on a timer. If that happens, you must run out of the nearby instance portal, click on your toon icon (upper left corner of my screen:) and "Reset all Instances", because you have to start the entire thing over.

**On some attempts, you WILL see his Skullcracker kill 10 elementals. You WILL count the skeletons. You WONT get credit for the achieve! It happens a lot! Be prepared to invent new cuss words and Rage a lot at whoever programed this stupid achieve!

**You WILL get 5 Angered Elementals in a row. You will then turn and face the boss, but your character WONT PUNCH HIM. You run to him, and he backs up. A /Punch macro won't work because all it does is "You punched Bob in the shoulder". So here is what you have to do. As you have your back turned to him with camera angled down, notice that your toon is standing there dodging and dancing his attacks? Click on the Focus icon, which you have likely moved close to your Action Bar so it is near your /Sit macro key. When you have clicked on the boss, notice that your arms come up in the Punch position? You also get a Tell "You are facing the wrong way!" You must re-engage the boss like this after the last Angered Earth is summoned. Sometimes you cannot force your toon to punch him no matter what. Be prepared to RAGE! If you get lucky, you quickly go into punch mode, turn and punch him below 66% or 33%, kill Chains of Woe, Skullcracker kills the five Angered Earths and Winning.

This achieve requires a hella lot of luck! It sucked major azz from the beginning but I hope with these tips you can get it too.

This might be the most annoying achievement i've done but took me just a few hours here is what i did;

110 Resto Druid fully naked in bear form only wearing 1-3 attack skinning knife

1. Pulled the boss hit him till he gets like 70-75
2. Cancelled attack turned my back to boss spammed /sit macro 2 times in a sec i guess my wrist gone numb :/
3. 5 add spawned in a row, if 5 add doesn't spawn in a ROW basically just kill the adds and do the sit thing till you get 5 without missing a quake no need to reset the boss with using vanish or something just kill the adds and it'll start again.
4. Boss casts chains of woe at %66 and %33 but i'm keeping him 70 and 40+
5. After you got 5 adds hit boss once or twice and he'll cast chains of woe after that he'll kill adds stay near him but be careful after hitting chains of woe you might kill adds by auto attack so make sure you are spamming esc or stop attack macro.
6. After boss kills first 5 pack of adds auto attack him again till %40ish and turn your back do the first 5 step again.
7. 1 SHOT THAT TIME WASTING ANNOYING OGRE.

On soloing I found that if you stand with the boss on the metal rail of the structure that contains raz this provides a flat surface. It's an octagon and I just kept us both lined up on the long, outer rail where it meets the ground. Each quake spam the sit macro as soon as he casts. After quake bump forward on the rail a little just to make sure everyone is still on ground properly. Like this I had very few missed quakes.

Mark the first few adds as suggested earlier. To start beat him down to as close to 66 as you can get then run through him so you are facing away from him and both lined up on the rail. Immediately when you get five adds right click his name plate or his back and walk backwards so you will now hit him, (/sit will stop your attack so you have to right click again.), and hopefully start the chains within a second or two. Repeat the process for the 33% chain spawn.

I used a macro for chains also to avoid hitting any adds.
/tar Chain
/cast attack

The achieve will not pop until the boss is dead so it's a gamble to kill him if you aren't sure.

In short get 5 adds from quake in a row, if a quake doesn't spawn an add kill all the ones that are up and try again.
Quickly start chains so no adds despawn.
Kill chains and stand on boss without killing adds. Repeat.

One note to add to the /sit-macro approach. There is a specific moment you have to use it (when you are spamming you are really just hoping you catch that moment). The moment you have to use your /sit-macro is the moment you first see the attack-effects (the attack-effect being the yellow/orange-ish circles). goodluck

This is from my perspective as a lvl 110 (gnome) monk. I'll skip all the things I experimented with.

Change to Mistweaver mode.
Strip down until your ilvl isn't anymore than ilvl 110.
You'll want to be standing between the left brazier and pile of boxes you run by to get to the boss. Pull the boss to there.
Punch the boss to until he is near 66% (right click attack, not ability attack.)
Mostly spam X key (sit key) you don't need to be precise when he is casting quake because if it's going to hit, it will, if it's going to miss it still will.] Very much RNG luck it seemed.
If you miss even 1 quake, carefully kill the adds and try again.
Occasionally use your vortex heal ability thing to stay topped up health wise.
Once you have 5, punch the boss(making sure not to select one of the adds) and he will do his skill.

Now with the 5 adds dead, do not move from where he teleported you.

Damage him down to about 40%~50% for safety
Repeat the above of healing between quakes when needed and press x in a somewhat timely way.
Once five are up, punch him, let him kill the adds then one shot him with a skill.

Job. Done.

It didn't take me eight hours like it did some people, but it took me an hour and a half to get a pattern beat down that worked for me.

Also, if you ever over tap him and cause him to trigger his skill before you have 5 adds up? run out of the dungeon to reset it.

These legacy achievements are so annoying to do.

Solo'd with my 110 unholy DK (I imagine that other pet classes can do this just as fine).

1. Strip naked (including rings, trinkets etc). Have a few bandages ready for your pet (Pump-Action Bandage Gun seems to be better in this case).
2. Boss has 1.5M HP, get your pet to dink him until ~1.05M (any hit beyond that will trigger his CW/SB ability) (REMOVE claw/cleaver from autocast).
3. Position the pet (w/ boss) in front of Raz's prison and yourself a few yards apart, with your back facing the boss (increases the chance that Quake will hit you).
4. Sit during quake, if successful there's some dust animation beneath you and an elemental will spawn. Keep the elementals in front of you (so that they have a lower chance of bringing you up during Quake). The elementals will only stay spawned for around 2min so if you miss one Quake kill all the remaining adds and start over.
5. When you get 5 elementals get your pet to hit the boss once and he will start casting CW/SB. Don't bother killing CW. If any of the elementals despawn during the cast you need to reset (just run out the instance and back again).
6. Repeat for the second CW/SB. Get boss to ~0.5-0.6M HP. Again, if you miss 1 quake kill all the elementals and start over. At 4 elementals cast Dark Transformation (just to be sure), prepare for the last Quake and when it lands (successfully) hit the boss once with your pet. He will do CW/SB again, reset if any elementals despawn during the cast. If you're successful the second time, nuke the boss and you get the achiev.

I don't know if someone already posted this, but I found the best way to do this.

Besides doing what people said here, I logged on my char, created a custom group, then got another char(on the same account) in the group, I got them both in the dungeon, I positioned them appropriately and then I only used one char to /sit. (The part when you create the group is kinda like sharing cd on bosses between chars when you wanna farm mounts.)

Usually both chars get hit so you will have two adds at a time. After the first skullcracker cast, I relogged on the other char because after about two minutes it goes offline. For all this I had two wow clients open. Just log on the other client and you will automatically be logged off from the current one. I hope it's understandable and sorry if it's not.

Just did this one as a Warlock level 110 patch 8.0.1 It's ridiculously easy!
You may be able to use this strategy with a hunter as well.

Spec: Destruction
No gear!
Use Voidwalker on passive and follow. Never use the Voidwalker "Attack" or "Consuming Shadows" ability.

Use the Voidwalker's "Suffering" ability to taunt the boss, be careful to not let the Voidwalker do damage, only taunt.
Use Drain life to damage the boss, you'll do 10% or so for each tick, get him down to 70-80%. The ticks go very slowly, so it's easy to handle.
And now use /sit and wait for the quake(no need to spam, no one is hitting you, and you should be fine). When the mob spawn, let Voidwalker taunt it as well with "Suffering", and /sit. Repeat.
When you have five mobs hitting your Voidwalker, use Drain Life and get the boss to 66%. He will cast his AOE attack, be sure to have your pet beside you, no need to despawn him. The boss should kill all the mobs.

Now do the same again, get 5 spawns, get him to 33%. He will AOE again. Kill boss, job done! Cake for everyone!
Tip. When you /sit you can mark each mob that spawns, so it's easy to count. Remember to use nameplates!

GL!

I found it easier to start a stopwatch on my phone when the first add spawns. You should be looking to get each add after about 23 seconds or so. If you don't have 5 by 1:40, then it's unlikely the first will stay up long enough for the achievement. I found this gave me a lot of confidence when deciding to push the boss to use O Rachacrânios.

Level 120 steps:

1 - Clear the trash around the boss area.
2 - Get naked. You need to hit like a wet noodle.
3 - Use a timer (/sw or whatever you like). Don't start it yet though.
4 - Pull the boss, don't do any damage. Turn your back to the boss.
5 - Quake is cast every 20sec or so. When it's close, spam your sit button (usually X).
6 - If the quake hits, it will spawn an add. If it does, start the timer & proceed; otherwise wait for next quake.
7 - Repeat this until you get 5 quakes to hit in a row. i.e. you have 5 adds up.
8 - Important: if you're close to 2min on the timer, one or more quakes took too long, so kill adds & start over.
9 - Hit boss once, get him to below 66%, kill chains of woe, stand next to boss as he kills the adds(w/skullcracker).
10 - Reset the timer and repeat from step 5. Get boss below 33% for second skullcracker.
11 - Two rounds and you'll have the 10 adds killed for the achievement, then kill the boss.

This macro helped me quickly target the boss and hit him once to trigger the skullcrackers:

My experience as a 103 level Priest.

PHASE 1 - 66% - 100%

Attack the boss.
Take the boss to 189k health (69%).
Turn your back to the boss.

From time to time the boss will cast QUAKE.
When he does, spam the X button (in order to sit down).
Stay in the QUAKE area to create an Elemental.
You will need 5 Elementals in a row.
If an Elemental does the appear at a QUAKE, kill of them and do it again.
Mark the Elementals. It will make it easier to see.

CHECKLIST:
Have 5 Elementals
The boss is at 189k Health (69%),

Hit the boss with the dagger/staff up until he casts Chains of Woe. It will only take 2-3 hits.
Kill the chain.
Stay close to the boss to make sure he will Skullcrack the 5 Elementals.

PHASE 2 - 33% - 66%

Follow the same steps.
This time, take the boss to 99k health (39%).
Make 5 Elementals.
Hit the boss until he casts the Chains of Woe.
Kill the chain.
Keep the 5 Elementals in the range of the Skullcracker.
Kill the boss. You won't get the achievement otherwise.

Good luck! Xx

Super EASY and FAST way to "solo" this! All credit for the idea goes to SerroDan from youtube, who explained this method in his video
It basically consists in grouping up with your own alt.

Get 2 of your alts at the start of the instance, fully naked. Remember to set it to heroic.
Get Character 1 inside the instance, clear trash.
Make a custom group
Log on Character 2 and ask to join group
Log back on Character 1 and invite
Log on Character 2 and accept. Walk into the instance.
Taunt or walk into boss or use Red Rider Air Rifle to start combat. Turn your back to him and click on your own portrait to make sure you're not punching the boss.
Log out of toon who is currently in combat and log on to the other one. Since this character is in combat, even if you log out, it will remain there, stuck in combat, being punched by boss.
With your second toon, punch boss until he's around 70%. In any case, make sure he's above 66%. Interface - Display - Status Text - Percentage helps.
Stack on top of your logged out toon who is still there. Quake will no longer miss, not only that, it will sometimes spawn 2 adds, one for each of your alts. Wait for 5 adds and punch boss below 66%. Wait for boss ability to kill them.
Repeat Step 10 until you get 5 adds again, punch boss below 33%, wait for ability to kill adds. Kill the boss. Congrats!

Notes:
Seems like a lot of log-out/log-in, but you can have several wow clients open from the .exe in your Program Files.
Both my toons were level 110, at around 200 item level.
You no longer need a timer, since 2 adds at a time spawn quite frequently - I got 6 the first time, and 5 the second. No quake ever missed, as it did when I tried with a single character.
I'd say unequipping your weapon depends on your class, I used a frost mage and a DH. DH could accidentally kill the boss with her bare hands, so I unequipped weapon; frost mage, on the other hand, punches like a noodle so I kept her staff on.
I had previously tried with a single toon for about 2 hours - to no avail. Either quake didn't spawn an add and I had to kill the ones who were up and start the waiting process again, or the add would despawn before boss ability hit etc. This worked on first try.

I tried this several times with my hunter main without luck. Then decided to try with brewmaster monk and using statue to tank adds so I could spam my /sit macro while only boss was on me. Got the achievement on first try.
You should also use in game stopwatch to track the time after first add spawns. They despawn in around 2 minutes. Normal time between quake casts is about 25 seconds which is more than enough to finish the set, but sometimes I noticed he cast it every 40 seconds which makes the achievement impossible. So if he takes too long just reset the fight and try again.

I just want to add my own comment here; this is, as of 8.1 (2019), still soloable. No alts, no 2nd person, no multi-window needed.

On higher level toons, you still need to press 'X', or use a /sit macro (if 'X' in binded to something else), go in naked and/or control your DPS so you hit the 66% and 33% mark without one-shotting the boss, get hit by multiple Quakes in a row, keep the fight near the purple braziers..... BUT you basically let him spawn the 6th Elemental instead of just going with 5. Obviously the first one despawns but if you let him spawn just 5, the first one will have a chance of despawning before he casts Skullcrack. Let him hit 6 Quakes in a row, to give the Elementals enough time to get hit by Skullcrack.

As a 120 BM Hunter I used the below method that eliminated the need (and RNG) to spam sit through the fight.

Setup the below Macro as an action button.
Kill all trash in the area you wish to work.
Get naked and put your pet on Passive.
Aggro the boss from a distance with Armadilha de Piche.
While the boss is still some distance from you, hit Rosnar and immediately hit Passive so no damage is done to the boss.
Use Move To to send your pet and the boss ~25 yards away from you. No further then 30 yards!
Sit
After the boss casts Tremor, select the Terra Enfurecida's nameplate, hit Rosnar and immediately hit Passive.
Repeat three more times until your pet has the boss and 4 Terra Enfurecida around it.
If the boss and adds gets to close to you, use Move To to push them ~25 yards way.
Once the 5th Terra Enfurecida spawns, click the boss's nameplate, run up to the boss and hit your action button to active the below macro.
This will get the boss to less than 66% health and cause him to cast O Rachacrânios.
Use Move to to get all Terra Enfurecidas near the boss and they all die once O Rachacrânios triggers.

Repeat this a 2nd time, then finish off the boss and you will get the achievement.

I found it helpful to start a stopwatch when the first Terra Enfurecida spawns, so I knew I had to get each round done before the stopwatch hit 2 minutes.

This macro helped me quickly target the boss and hit him once to trigger O Rachacrânios(credit slowhand61]):

Highly recommend: using a char from level 90-early 100s, since higher level toons will often cause quakes to miss

1) log into level 95-101 char
2) remove all gear save for weapon, rings, and trinkets
3) set a 'sit' keybind (x is usually used)
4) aggro boss and bring him to a spot between the left brazer and a stack of boxes across from it (this is where he'll run to do skullcracker)
5) get boss right before 66% (do not go below 66%)
6) keep your back to boss and spam the /sit keybind like crazy
7) wait for 5 to spawn. Immediately after the 5th add spawns, bump him down to below 66% to activate skullcrusher
8) follow steps 4-7 for 33%

I got the achievement today using a 120 hunter and a 100 warrior. It's easier to do with two toons because two Anger Earth's will spawn at a time (so no need for a 2 minute timer).

The following may be helpful:
Click "Character Info" and select your Equipment Manager. Create a New Set, add a set name and icon, then save what you are currently wearing. Next, create a New Set, adding a set name and icon, then remove all of your armor, weapons, trinkets, and rings - then save naked "equipment set". This will save you time from removing armor, etc, one piece at a time.

If you are a BM Hunter, TexClone posted an excellent guide on 2019/03/02. Based on his post, I downloaded Hard Yards from cursed so I could measure distance from the Boss to my hunter. IF YOU ARE SPEC'D INTO ANIMAL COMPANION you may want to temporarily spec into killer instinct (I was concerned that my second hunter pet would accidentally kill the boss). I also created additional macros for my BM Hunter:

Macro for pet's Growl/Passive:
/cleartarget
/cast growl
/petpassive
/cleartarget

Macro for targeting your pet on Rom'ogg:
/cleartarget
/tar rom'ogg
/cast growl
/petpassive
/cleartarget

Macro is for player to sit:
/sit

Macro for targeting your pet on Anger Earth:
/cleartarget
/tar Anger
/cast growl
/petpassive
/cleartarget

And finally a macro for attacking Rom'Ogg:
/cleartarget
/tar rom'ogg
/startattack
/stopattack

(Someone might have said this online somewhere but I sure as heck missed it so I'm gonna post this here just in case).

Made a new healer class and got her to lvl 100 then stripped. I found that level 100 is the sweet spot to have almost 100% of the quakes hit when paired with /sit Macro but it does seem possible at lvl 120. Hope this helps.

So guys! I have found the best way to do it.... I was really nervous and angry.....

I was trying like 3 days. I recall that I had a 100 level paladin to an other server so I decided to do this achievement with him.

First of all, you have 90% chance to get hit from the boss while you are standing. I chose paladin because he can heal( hadn't any other choices :P ). why do I say 90% chance? because the boss did some earthquakes which missed. that's why I created also the macro /sit to cover this 10% which associated with earthquakes. if u don't have any 100 level character, /w someone to join you.

you can thank me later <3

I used a 100 level character (rogue which could use Crimson Vial to heal, but you can get some potions, or have enough armor to survive)
I removed all my equipped items + weapons
Pulled the boss close to the spot where he does Skullcracker (he does that at 66% hp and 33%, you can trigger it once so you can know where exactly he does it)
I positioned the boss on a bit higher ground and me on a lower ground. I turned my back towards him and started spamming "X" or whatever button you have for /sit
This is where the waiting begins, get the boss with Auto-attack to 70% or close to 66% and turn your back on him
Then you have to spawn Angered Earth elementals consistently from each Quake the boss does or you miss the count
I did this, I got 6 Angered Earth elementals spawned (by the time the 6th spawns, the first one dissapears - u will still have 5)
When the 6th is up, i dps boss to 66% and he does his thing
Then you repeat by getting the boss close to 33% and again you wait for 6th Angered Earth
If you miss even one quake (Angered Earth spawn) you must start counting again to 6
(for example if you spawned 3 elementals and miss one, you start counting from 0)
It's a little buggy, you quite often don't spawn elemental whatever you do, you just have to be patient.
I did it in an hour~
Good luck
also most likely the achievement is 100% easier if you have a friend to help you, because you could spawn 2 Elementals from 1 quake (if both of you got hit) and it makes it faster

p.s.
I wait for 6th elemental because when i just wait for 5, often one of the 1st of those 5 disappears during Skullcracker and i can't finish the achievement and gotta reset. It's pretty annoying achievement but at least you feel like you are earning it by doing some work :D

I did this achievement over and over again with a friend without getting credit. Here is what I found worked: Bring a character with a taunt ability or totem that will draw aggro so the elementals won't attack the person who is sitting. That way the elementals are at 100% health when they die to the skullcracker ability.

FWIW: I was using naked 120 casters equipped with nothing but a low level weapon, and tapping the elementals one time to get their focus on me and away from the sitter. It seemed to work fine and we killed the required number of mobs (extras even) but every time the achievement would not pop. I tried reporting it to Blizzard support, but they told me to just keep doing it over and over again because that's what they did, even when they were sure they were doing it right. Really? So they were not going to help me and they won't help you either. So that's why I am leaving this comment, 100% health for the elementals seems to be the secret sauce to this buggy achievement. We also killed 13 when it worked, so having extras would not hurt, even though the achievement only says 10 (who knows)!

This is a really frustrating achievement to solo, even for a hunter. I've made all the macros and even have two hunters to attempt it every day. Even after sitting behind the boss and hitting him quickly he seems to lag a couple precious seconds before starting Chains of Woe which is giving the first elemental enough time to despawn before Skullcracker is cast. I've done the 6th elemental strat, for insurance, and it has not helped.

To make matters worse, if an elemental starts to despawn before Skullcracker is finished, it will still leave behind a skeleton, bamboozling you into thinking you got all 5. Those ribcages are NOT indicative of how many elementals are counted toward the achievement, just let that be known. I'm just going to try and find another person to make this way less of a headache.

Just got this achievement for a Friend. Both of us 120. Here's the short and sweet.

Once your in Blackrock Mountain you can use this to find the dungeon. I know I needed it.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/golgafrinchan/Entrance.jpg

Go into Blackrock Caverns on heroic with two people. One preferably a caster. (they have less base dmg)
Both players take off ALL of your gear
Taunt the boss and DO NOT damage him
Both players turn your back to the boss and sit. The person tanking the boss will have to repeatedly sit (Defaults to X key)
The boss will cast Earthquake every little bit. The elementals you need only spawn if a person takes damage from Earthquake (hence the back turn & sit)
Currently, the achievement is bugged, so you need more than 10. (we did 13)
Spawn your first batch of 7 or 8. They do despawn over time (EQ group 5 despawns EQ group 1), that's why it's important both players take the earthquake damage.
Have the lowest base damage person punch the boss once to get him below 66% but above 33%. if you crit it will likely drop below 33% and you've failed the achievement.
Let the cast go off while you don't attack anything. It will kill all the elementals you have up.
Repeat those steps to get 7 or 8 more, and then punch the boss once to get him below 33%.
Let him blow up his adds
Then kill the boss.

Profit!

Hello everyone, this is my first post so I apologize in advance if I miss anything:

It took me about 45 minutes to finally get this achievement. Getting the timing right just as all of the other posts say is essential; however, I found that the timing everyone else had suggested didn't work for me. Also, many commented on Rom'ogg Bonecrusher's ability "The Skullcracker" not working and killing the Angered Earth, but this was not a problem for me and I'm assuming was fixed.

So, go ahead and unequip all of your gear. Aggro him, turn around, and let him hit you from behind. Watch his castbar when he goes to use the move Quake, and press x to sit right before he launches the ability. So, the castbar should fill up and then slowly go down as it's used, and you want to hit it RIGHT before it fills up. Once that was the timing I went with, it was extremely easy. Let him hit you five times in a row timing up your sit perfectly, knock him down to 66% health (should take 1-2 hits), make sure you don't keep hitting him I suggest clicking on your own nameplate so that you don't have to worry about it, and let him kill the adds. Again at 33% and you should be good.

Good luck everyone!

Did this just now as a 120 warlock, wasn't too difficult after getting this consistent setup.
Because the add only spawns when you take damage, you should be naked and sitting whenever the boss does its Quake ability. To prevent having to deal with timing the sit properly, I used a voidwalker to draw aggro from the boss and the adds.
Here's the method in detail, synthesized from my own technique and other comments:

Have your voidwalker summoned and on passive
Aggro the boss, attack it (I'd recommend using a lower level weapon; I used an iLvl 119 staff that dropped from trash) until it is one hit away from 66%
Making sure that the voidwalker is away from the boss, use its Suffering ability to draw aggro, then immediately set it back to passive.
Sit down facing away from the boss, letting your voidwalker take all the hits.
After the boss does its Quake ability and the add spawns, run away from the boss and your voidwalker (use either the pet's Move To or Stay command to keep it from following you)
Have your voidwalker draw aggro (Suffering, then immediately Passive)
Repeat steps 4 through 6 until you have gone through 5-6 Quakes. You should have 5 adds alive. I recommend doing 6 cycles since the oldest add will despawn and will give you a sense of how much time until the next oldest will despawn.
Attack the boss to get it below 66% health. Move the voidwalker next to the boss (Follow should work, I used Move To), and let the adds die to the boss's Skullcracker
Repeat steps 2-8. The trigger on the next ability is 33% health.

1. Get naked and let the boss stay behind you all the time.
2. MACRO "/sit"
3. SPAM the crap out of that macro before the boss uses QUAKE
4. Do that 5 times IN A ROW to spawn 5 ANGERED EARTHs
5. Then lower the boss to 66% the first time, then let the boss blow them off, you do nothing.
6. Repeat 3,4 then lower to 33% this time and wait for the boss to kill adds.

7. then nuke the boss.

Can I just say I nearly pulled my hair out today (14 Nov) in Patch 9.0.1 trying to get this achievement.
It took me close to 2hrs before I nearly gave up trying to solo and grab a friend to help me.
But FINALLY I managed to get the achievement solo!
I was on my lvl 50 Warlock, no pet out, & made sure I was absolutely naked.

The biggest tip I can give you is to first do a trial run to see where Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos stands to perform his Correntes da Desgraça.
Once you have done this exit and reset the dungeon.

Enter again, and move back to exactly where Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos stood to perform Correntes da Desgraça.

Engage boss and make sure you are facing away from him. I found that as long as you are close enough to him, you do not need to spam /sit as the Terra Enfurecida elementals will spawn anyway as long as you are getting damaged by his Tremor, but you can do this if you prefer.

Wait until he has spawned 5 Terra Enfurecida elementals. THEN WAIT until he spawns 1 more! You will find that 1 elemental will despawn shortly after the 6th appears, and if you engage him before he summons the additional 6th, you will not end up with 5 elementals to be killed.

AS SOON as the 6th elemental spawns, turn and dps him to just under 60% health then stop.
He will then cast his Correntes da Desgraça and smoosh the elementals with O Rachacrânios.

Turn away, ensure your back is facing him and repeat above until you have again spawned another 6 Terra Enfurecida elementals.

As soon as the 6th elemental spawns, turn and dps him down to 30%.
He will again smoosh elementals with his O Rachacrânios.

At this stage you should now be free to DPS Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos down and collect your Rachando crânios e esmagando ossos!

Make sure you always have him use his O Rachacrânios on 5 elementals. If for some reason you don't have 5 when he performs this on your first lot of elementals, I would suggest resetting the instance and starting again.
If you managed to kill the 5 elementals before dpsing him down past 60%, you can take your time collecting the next 5 if you need to. Just dont dps him past 30%!

**Its important to note that standing exactly where Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos stands to perform his Correntes da Desgraça and engaging him there is really important. If you don't, the time it takes you to move back to this spot is all the time it will take for one of your Terra Enfurecida elementals to despawn. This is where I found I was failing the achievement**

I hope this helps you!
Happy Achievement Hunting :)

Managed to do this today as a level 50 hunter in the Shadowlands pre-patch. Took me three days of lockouts to succeed: the first two days I was sure he'd killed 10 of the adds, but I didn't get the achievement (this has been listed as a possible bug?) and the third day I was all set, but I critically hit him and he dropped from 50% health to dead instead of getting just past 33% and casting the necessary spell. Whoops.

I think this achievement will get significantly harder, if not impossible, once you start levelling past 50 in shadowlands: it's already too easy to crit him past the key health levels for the various spells. If you've been waiting to get your Volcanic drake, I would definitely recommend doing this right away!

Tips on how to manage this:

Get an achievement tracker! It was very comforting to know when 10 adds had definitely been killed and I was safe to kill the boss, so I didn't have to feign death or run out to reset
Take off ALL your gear, including weapons, necklace, trinkets, etc. You don't want accidental crits, as I found out. Also dismiss your pet/demon
Tank him in the centre of the room, and keep yourself facing away from him at all times. Place your 'auto attack' button in one of your main keybind slots so you can easily turn it off and on - it should be off for most of the fight if you're level 50.
Whenever he begins 'Quake,' press and hold 'x' to sit (make sure you haven't unbound this default keybind first!) - I've found this to be more foolproof than the /sit macro, and I had no trouble at all with quakes missing. Each time you sit during a quake, he'll summon an angered earth. If you miss a quake, one will despawn, so make sure you just keep doing this until you have 5.
Quickly turn to face the boss, press auto-attack to punch him once, and turn away again. If he's not at 66% health or below, turn back and hit him once more before *immediately* turning auto-attack off.
He will run to do 'Chains of Woe' - make sure you follow him so the adds are in melee range of him when he prevents you from moving. He should kill all 5 adds. Check your chat box to see what the achievement tracker says - if only 4 are dead for some reason, reset the fight now.
Let him treat you as a punching bag for a while longer (he never dropped me below 100% health), and press 'x' to sit every time he quakes. When you have another 5 adds up, repeat the previous two steps (dps below 33% - usually requires no more than one hit at level 50, so make sure you don't kill him! - and then let him chain you and kill the adds).
***Very important*** WAIT until all 5 of the second round of adds are definitely dead (and confirm using achievement tracker) before you kill him. They take a second to actually die after he blasts them, and if you kill the boss before the game registers that the adds are dead, you won't get the achievement.

I did this today. You do need more than 10 for the achievement. I did it with 2 players killed about 12.

I just did this solo on my lvl 50 mage.
1) Get undressed (expect staff/weapon).
2) Pull boss towards middle.
3) Beat boss down to around 75% HP (since 1 hit deals around 11% dmg).
4) Turn around, let boss hit you, emote /sit before he uses his quake ability and summons adds on you.
5) Once there are 5 adds, hit boss once/twice so that he reaches ~66% HP.
6) Break the chain.
7) Lead the adds to him and have them killed by him.
8) Repeat steps 3-7 (beat him down to 45% HP first before you turn around one more time).
9) Wait a few seconds after he kills the adds and then kill the boss.

Ok so today (january 25th 2021) i finally got this achieve in solo, a long time after my first tries, which ended in me giving up. It seemed to me totally impossible in solo.

First of all i want to mention that people say the achieve is bugged, and that they need to kill more than 10 adds. This is totally wrong, or at least it is wrong in solo. I just got the achieve after reading about all this stuff, and i'm 100% sure that i only killed 10 adds. I was actually thinking "omg i finally got 10 adds, i hope i won't get the bug that people are talking about".

Also, the comment that helped me the most, was the guy who said "it was all about finding the right timing to sit, i.e right before the casting bar is full". After a few roundtrips between boss and graveyard (to make sure i had ress sickness all the time), i read this comment, and then i was almost immediately able to pop 5 adds in a row (i failed one time, reseted the boss, then came back in dungeon and did a perfect). So my best advice is binding your /sit to a key, turn away from the boss, and spam the button right before he finishes casting the spell.

DONT WORRY IF THE ACHIEVEMENT TRACKING DOESNT BECOME GREEN OR WHATEVER, mine didn't show anything, so i was afraid of killing the boss, even though i killed 10 adds. But i eventually killed the boss and i got the achieve.

This Achievment is bugged, probably not possible to solo. I got 10 of the elementals killed all from the ability then killed the boss- no achievment. Got full proof from details that 10 elementals died, and all their dmg taken was from the boss. I suppose it's only possible with a group or something.

Don't try this at 60. With no gear, one non-critical hit from my hunter hit the boss for around 60% of its hp - too much damage to get the achieve. Also, quakes often missed (even with /sit), so I could never get more than 3 adds.

Your best bet is a low level toon or timewalking. I'll bring in a 50 soonish and update then.

Edit: Resurrection sickness works (thanks gamer667!). Alternatively, a level 50 toon still works - I just got the achieve this way. Strip all gear, aggro boss, stand near the purple braziers, wait for 6 quakes (the first add will time out before you get 5), punch the boss, wait for boss to cast Skullcracker. Repeat.

So for me, as a lvl 50 Lock.

Got addon that showed targets health
Took off all cloths and weapon. Bought and equipped an Opaque Wand. Tried several wands, its all about the right amount of damage over time.
Killed all surrounding adds
Engaged Boss with Wand, stood by purple brazer - It took 1% to 3% of his health per cast
Stopped casting and faced away from Boss when his health is around 68%
Do not count any existing adds, they will DESPAWN before you can get to Skull-cracker - spam "x" (Sit) when he starts casting quake
When you have 5 new adds - turn and shoot to get him to 66% - he will cast Chains of Woe, then in 8 secs, Skull-cracker.

Be sure you have (5) add "ribs" on ground - if you only have (4) - run out and restart. I think this is where folks are thinking you have to kill more than 10, as I watched (SEVERAL TIMES) an add de-spawn between chains of Woe and Skull-cracker. Its all about the timing (Adds de-spawn after a certain length of time). If you take too long to get him to 66% after the 5th add spawns, an add will de-spawn before he casts Skull-Cracker.

Shoot with Wand until Health is around 36%
Face away and Repeat spamming "x" to sit when he casts Quake. (Be sure and have 5 fresh adds - do not try to use any existing adds)
Once you have (5) fresh adds - turn and shoot till he is AT or below 33%

When he casts Skull-cracker - if you have (5) rib things on ground - WAIT until he casts another Quake.
Then Turn and Burn Boss.
(Apparently it takes a few secs for the game to realize you got the adds killed)

I could not get him to ever cast Chains of Woe again (Seems to only do it twice per fight)

Hope this helps.

Level 60 mage Shadowlands
Even after unequipping all my gear and melee'ing him, I can't get this achievement because he dies in two hits. That's why you have to give yourself Resurrection Sickness or find some other way to make yourself hit for even less.

Shadowlands (9.0.5) update - as of 3-30-21 - Patience! Patience is key here. My capped pally, rog, & hunter did WAY too much damage, even stripped naked. HOWEVER, my L40 Holy Pally in full heirloom minus weapon, can stand there and just heal the damage. no /sit, no tricks, just stand there and heal from time to time.

Beat Rom down a little, might take some practice to get hit to a point where you dont trigger the first skull crusher, then just stand still and heal when you need to. After 5 AE's spawn, drop a Judgment on Rom to hasten 66% and crack those ele's. If your damage is too low and one dies, just stop attacking and let another spawn and retry. I have been able to get 5 solo, so far. then repeat to just above 33% and wait for 5 more. Once you have the second 5, Judgment again, crack, and slaughter his fat butt

Oh, and dont forget to kill those chains also.

I was able to solo this at level 60 - as a naked hunter with rez sickness and pets dismissed. It took 5+ attempts but should be possible for any class to solo.

This will rehash the previous comments a bit, but here is my experience:

The boss uses his Skullcracker ability twice during this encounter - at 66% and 33% health remaining. You'll want to chip the bosses health down to just above these values and wait for the Angry Earth Elementals to spawn. If solo, you can have a maximum of 5 Angered Earth Elementals up at one time; the 1st Angered Earth Elemental will despawn before the 6th one spawns in. There is no wiggle room, you must destroy 5 elementals with each of the two Skullcracker casts.

An Angry Earth Elemental is spawned if you are hit with the bosses Quake ability. You must be hit by 5 quakes in a row, otherwise the first Angry Earth Elemental will despawn before the 5th is spawned. I took advice from other comments and faced away from the boss while spamming "/sit" when he cast Quake. As soon as the 5th elemental is spawned, turn around and punch the boss to 66% health. He will root you and start casting Skullcracker. All the Angry Earth Elementals will die when the cast is finished. If you're not fast enough the 1st elemental will despawn before the Skullcracker cast is finished. The boss must kill 5 elementals with each cast or you cannot solo the achievement. This is why you want to chip the boss's health down close to 66% and 33% - you can quickly trigger the Skullcracker cast with one punch after spawning the 5th elemental.

This whole process takes over 5 minutes and requires rez sickness (at lvl 60). If you get unlucky and fail the achieve then you will probably need to go refresh rez sickness. It is a long walk out of the instance to the center of Blackrock Mountain, where you'll need to fly high and throw yourself down to your death. I recommend banking your gear - as it will still take durability damage in your bags from rez sickness.

Once the boss killed 10 Angry Earth Elementals I waited for him to cast Quake again before killing him. I feel like this wasn't necessary but didn't mind waiting an extra few seconds to be safe.

I tried to solo it with a 40 lvl toon but I gave up, the quake timers are too inconsistent. One time the CD on quake is not even 15 seconds, another time it's more than 30 seconds which means the first ( or two even ) adds have despawned when the fifth one spawns. It's just better to bring a friend on this broken ass fight.

Comentado por Bloobies

I have tried this at least 50 times now and cannot get it to work. Initially I was struggling with being hit with each quake, but I think I mostly have that solved by better positioning. But, I can never seem to have 5 adds up by the time the boss smashes. I have five going into that phase, but by the time I break out of the chains and he does his attack, one add despawns. I have been johnny on the spot with breaking out and getting the adds to the boss, but one always despawns just before he smashes, thus only killing 4 and never 5. One of the most frustrating achieves I have ever tried.

Shadowlands Update

For reference - Level 60 Troll Shaman - To avoid one-shotting...

You need no gear on and Enjoo de Ressurreição - Read all before you start though.

Preparation:

Remove all your gear, weapons, trinkets etc and leave them in the bank (I stuck with just Vestido Preto Simples)
Go into Caverna Rocha Negra
Clear the adds only (not Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos) in the Chamber of Incineration
Exit the instance
Create a macro with "/sit" in it over and over and over once per line (I had 25 lines)
Put this somewhere spammable (action bar etc)
Jump into the lava in Montanha Rocha Negra and die

The pull - note, if it looks like Enjoo de Ressurreição will end before he's killed 10 Terra Enfurecida, just run out, jump in the lava and start this part again. Even in your weakened state they won't hurt you at max level.

Go to the Spirit healer and get resurrected
As soon as you're alive, go out the bottom exist, then mount and fly to the Caverna Rocha Negra entrance (up a little bit and to the right slightly)
Go into the instance, and use your sprint if you have it to get into the middle of the room.
Pull Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos, but do NOT use any abilities on him. Just punch until as close to 66% as you're comfortable with
Turn you back to him and wait
As soon as he starts casting Tremor spam the sit macro. If quake misses you, kill any Terra Enfurecida and start again.
Once you have 5 Terra Enfurecida up at once, push Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos below 66% (but above 33%)
As soon as he's below 66%, stop attacking. He will run off and cast Correntes da Desgraça on you
Don't move. The Terra Enfurecida will run to you and be killed by O Rachacrânios
You're half way there. As soon as they are dead, push Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos down to as close to 33% as you feel comfortable and repeat.
After the second set of 5 Terra Enfurecida are dead, kill Rom'ogg Esmaga-ossos

Remember, you can run out at any point. If you kill him, you're done trying for that day.

Patch 9.1, naked resto cow drood. RESURRECTION SICKNESS is your damage-nerf friend.
If you haven't killed your first 5 in 5 mins FROM RESURECTION, you won't make it. I finished with a couple of mins left.
Kneel or sit macro bound to #1 key for my preference. Be aware of input lag and hit the button as close to the spell finishing as possible.
Make sure you are on heroic and you should get this. a dozen tries to get the timing right. But snagged it.

I did this on my third attempt now and here are a few updated tips (Shadowlands 9.1):

I did this solo on my lvl 60 mage. Tested around a little bit and equipped the shadowlands fishing pole which did approx 6-10% dmg to the boss each hit.
Bring the boss down to 70 to 75%/35% to 40%.
As many here wrote: Once it starts casting quake, spam "X" or a /sit macro. It should be fairly easy to get a spawn each quake.
It is very important that you position yourself between the left fire and the boxes, i.e. at the teleport location when soloing this. Otherwise the time might not be enough and an elemental will despawn before it's killed by the boss.
Use the nameplate count macro someone posted here. In my case it said "7" when all elementals are up and the boss teleported me. One for the boss, one for the add ring thingy and 5 for the elementals. Once the boss teleports you, start spamming this macro. The output should jump from 7 to 1, if it jumps from 7 to 6 to 1, one elemental despawned before the boss killed it. In that case, reset the boss. It is very important that you are sure that the boss has killed all 5 (10) elementals, since once you killed the boss, the ID only resets every week.

How to actually get this achievement solo :

1) Remove all your gear, weapon, trinkets...etc
2) Go into the dungeon and make sure it's on Heroic Difficulty.
3) Clear all trash mobs before starting the boss.
4) Walk up to the boss to get aggro to start the encounter (or taunt depending on your class) and don't face the boss directly, click on your hp banner if you think you might accidently auto-attack the boss.
5) Spam /sit or the ''X'' button since it's the default keybind for sitting, keep sitting at all times, that will make the boss spawn the adds needed for the achievement slightly faster.
6) Once the boss spawn exactly 4 adds and is casting Tremor ability to spawn the 5th add, hit the boss (don't nuke) to get him between 66% health and 33% health (but not below 33%) then he'll cast Correntes da Desgraça followed by O Rachacrânios which instantly kills all adds.
7) Once the adds are dead, repeat the same thing again until he spawns 5 additional adds, then get the boss below 33% health so he can kill them using O Rachacrânios again, then nuke the boss once you make sure that 10 adds died during the entire counter.

Some helpful tips:
- Doing this on a low level character (40-44) can make this achievement decently easy, so if you fail it, you can always reset the fight by running out of the dungeon without the risk of accidently killing the boss.
- If you're doing this on a max level character, getting resurrection sickness can be very helpful.
- Doing this with a friend or more can make it a lot easier, since the boss spawn 1 add for each player in the fight, but it is doable solo as well.
- The adds last for exactly 2 minutes before despawning, I've tried this achievement multiple times just to make sure of it, this is why /sit can be extremely important when trying to get this achievement and you can make a macro for it just to be safe.
- ''Instance Achievement Tracker'' is an addon that tracks the achievement progress as you're doing it and can be incredibly useful especially for this particular achievement as it counts exactly how many adds died after each cast of O Rachacrânios.
- The boss casts O Rachacrânios only TWICE during the entire encounter, first at 66% health, and second at 33%, which means if you don't have exactly 5 adds dead at the first cast (66% Health) and exactly 5 more at second cast (33% Health), you are guaranteed to fail this achievement.

If you are level 60 and its important to get this achieve on this particular high level toon, ask a lower level friend or guildie to help.
Maybe offer to pay them for their time. It should only take about 30 mins, and maybe you can help the lower level friend get the other achieves in this dungeon.

The mechanics are frustrating and my friend gave up trying to solo because they could never get a 6th Angered Earth Elemental to spawn, and the 5th Elemental despawned before Skullcrusher was cast by Rom.

I am currently a level 53 destro lock. My friend is a reasonably well geared level 60 druid and cleaning up old achieves.
I got this particular achieve back in the day when I was either at Cata or Panda level, and with a group. It was far easier in a the group because more Elementals spawn as group size increases. (Maybe a group of four level 60s can pay for a lower level friend or guildie to help?)

I had an idea of what I was doing, because I read all the comments here ahead of time.
We made three practice runs on NORMAL. It doesnt matter if you end up killing Rom because you can reset the NORMAL dungeon.

It took three trials to know:
a) how hard my punch was (auto attack)
b) where to stand
c) get used to the mechanics of this unusual fight.

This fight is different. My friend as a Druid could taunt, and place the boss and then I would punch. We were a specific twosome. Others may have to learn a different team balance. Hence, the need to practice.

After we succeeded in having Rom kill 6 elementals in the first phase of the NORMAL dungeon, we went straight to HEROIC.
My punches were not as effective on a Boss with more health but the tactics were the same.

My friend got the achieve on our first try.
They completed Glória do Herói do Cataclismo and were very happy.

It helped that my friend was also watching, and coaching. I could see when Rom was hurt enough that I needed to turn and sit, and we each had a macro for /sit. Spamming the X key causes the toon to sit and stand (toggle). Spamming the macro does not toggle between sitting and standing. (We tested this.)

When there were 6 Angered Earth Elementals, I turned and punched Rom once to trigger to the Skullcrusher cast from Rom. It takes several seconds for Rom to cast it. The person punching may need to punch Rom a second time to get below 66% or 33%. Watch as the Elementals are on their own clock.

We got 6 elementals each phase.

Three take aways:
1) My friend, as a well geared level 60, needed a lower level buddy who would work with them for 15 - 30 mins (depending on skill) to learn the mechanics of the fight, and take the time to practice it on Normal.
2) Clear the room. In my case, my friend needed the rep with a Cata level faction and wanted to clear the room.
3) The lower level char was the person doing the fighting until the 10+ elementals were killed by Skullcrusher and Rom could be killed.
4) Having two in a group was sufficient to get the Elementals in the numbers needed. Soloing while doable, is a challenge.

I got my Glória do Herói do Cataclismo as we finished the dungeon.

Neither of us had to be naked or go through rez sickness

Thanks to many of the tips here I was able to get this today as a relatively high-level solo, on about my 12th attempt. I made a bunch of mistakes and ultimately learned some things I hadn't read here, so I thought I'd share what I found. I used one of my alts, a level 55 warlock geared kinda low at ilvl 88. Didn't need to get naked or get rez sickness. I made three short macros and bound them onto an action bar as follows (1) a simple /sit macro, (2) a simple /stopattack macro, and (3) a macro to target the boss and hit him just once with a simple autoattack. That one looks like this:

/target Rom'ogg Bonecrusher
/startattack
/stopattack

Set dungeon to Heroic, go in and clear all the trash up to and around the boss. be sure you have macros and keybinds set.
Engage the boss and get him down to around 70%. I used my 3rd macro, and two hits got him to 69%, which was perfect. Later in the fight you want to only have to hit him once to get him below 66%.
Start spamming the /sit macro. You'll be using this a lot, so be sure to bind this one to a comfortable key. Some methods say to face away from the boss, but I don't think that matters, and it can add time and complexity later. I stayed facing the boss while spamming /sit, and it worked fine for me.
Keep spamming /sit. Every 20-25 seconds (roughly, and it's random) the boss will cast Tremor. Most of the time (but not all), this cast will produce an Terra Enfurecida.
Your goal is to get 5 Angered Earth to spawn consecutively. If the boss casts a quake that does not spawn an add, stop counting. Next time an Angered Earth spawns, start counting again at one.
NOTE: Best possible case is 5 successful spawns 20 seconds apart, a total of roughly 1 min, 40 seconds. The Angered Earth de-spawn at 2 minutes. If you get a Quake cast that doesn't spawn an Angered Earth, your first spawn will age to 2 minutes and de-spawn right about the time the next Quake is case, leaving you with only FOUR, which won't work for the achievement. Therefore, the ONLY way to complete this achievement as a high-level solo is to be sure you get 5 spawns consecutively. From my experience I'd estimate Quake produces a spawn about 9 out of 10 times, so it's not too bad, but patience is definitely a virtue here.
Keep spamming /sit and counting until you get 5 Angered Earth consecutively. As soon as you see the 5th consecutive Angered spawn, carefully hit the boss to get him under 67%, but NOT below 34%. If you set it up right earlier you should only have to hit him once. Timing is important, as your oldest Angered Earth is probably pushing 1 min and 50 sec at this point, so you have maybe 10-15 seconds to get this right. Also, be careful to not accidentally kill any of the Angered Earth. That's why I made the 3rd macro.
Once his health gets to 66% or lower, the boss will cast Correntes da Desgraça, which will grab and imprison you. The adds will follow you and continue attacking, and the boss will cast O Rachacrânios. This cast takes 8 long, nerve-wracking seconds, during which you will pray to the Old Gods that none of your adds de-spawn. NOTE: The AddOn Instant Achievement Tracker was really helpful here, as it counts for you and announces how many Angered Earth were killed.
If you did it all right, and had a little luck, 5 Angered Earth just got killed and you are halfway there. If you didn't get five then /stopattack, exit the dungeon, try again. You MUST get 5 kills each time the boss casts The Skullcracker in order to get this achievement.
The boss should be somewhere between 66% and 34% health. You might want to hit him again once to get him to the low 40s or high 30s, but DO NOT get him below 34%. Face the boss and start spamming /sit again. Keep spamming /sit and counting until you get 5 Angered Earth consecutively. As soon as you see the 5th consecutive Angered spawn, carefully hit the boss to get him under 34%, but don't kill him. Use that /stopattack macro if you need to. Same as before, timing is important.
Once his health gets to 33% or lower, the boss will again cast Chains of Woe, then The Skullcracker. If all goes well, another 5 Angered Earth get killed, and you are cleared to kill the boss and complete Rachando crânios e esmagando ossos.

NOTES:
You may want to do a test run or two to figure out how to best hit the boss to get his health where you want it. It's best to use a simple auto attack, avoid any AOE or DOTs. Consider adjusting your gear if needed to get your damage dialed in. If you are level 60 and you do try the rez sickness method be careful of the 10-minute timer on it. If you have bad luck with Angered Earth spawns you might still be spamming /sit when the rez sickness fades, which would mess things up for the end of the fight. (I speak from experience)

If you mess up at any point (and you will), make sure to /Stopattack, and then just run out of the dungeon. Turn around, head right back in (no reset needed), and start the fight over when ready.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

I have tried this off and on for over six months and I just can't do it. All of the guides are out of date. Whoever designed this achievement did so poorly. He did not keep in mind future expansions because it did not age well.

FINALLY solo'd this on my level 43 demon hunter. I found level 43 worked perfectly because it was enough for Rom'ogg at 37 to be gray level and thus do almost no damage to me, while still being low enough level for all his attacks to hit. I followed the advice on here and spammed a /sit macro while having my back turned to Rom'ogg, and all of his elemental spawns hit. I'm not even sure if the /sit spam was necessary at that level but I did it just to be safe. This was not the case on my naked level 60 hunter, as even spamming /sit, the elemental spawn attack missed every like 3-4 times so it would have taken a while to get 5 elementals spawned in a row. If the elemental spawn misses once (doesn't spawn an elemental) you have to start over because you have just barely enough time if all of them spawn in a row to have him do Skullcracker before the first one despawns. On my level 43, I took all my armor off except for my warglaives so I could do damage to Rom'ogg fast enough, and was in Havoc spec to not have any tanking attributes.

The biggest obstacle was getting Rom'ogg's Skullcracker ability to go off before the first of the five elementals despawned. I marked the first one to spawn with a Skull marker so I could keep track of if it was still alive by the end of the Skullcracker cast, but you can also just check and make sure all five skeletons are laying there after Skullcracker goes off. At first, I was spamming /sit all the way through his fifth elemental spawn cast to make sure it hit, but when I did that the first elemental would always despawn before Skullcracker finished. The way I finally pulled it off was the second he started casting the fifth elemental spawn I would immediately turn and quickly damage him below 66%/33% to trigger Skullcracker. This works because he still finishes the cast and then instantly starts the Skullcracker sequence, leaving enough time for all 5 elementals to still be alive at the end of it. As soon as he teleports to use his ability, start walking over to him so that the elementals have time to get there (rather than just waiting for him to teleport you to him, as then the elementals might not make it over to you in time). There's still a bit of RNG involved so if either of his Skullcrackers doesn't end up killing 5, you just gotta walk out of the instance and try again. It will probably take a few tries but it's worth it to finally finish this one!

Unless you are hell bent on actually soloing this, the easiest route with the least stress is to duo the achievement. Both of us intentionally died in the lava outside and got rez sickness from the angel; although only one of you likely needs it. We both got naked to not accidentally proc anything or one shot the boss. We let him spawn 5 dudes, then dps'd him to 66%. He did Chains of Woe, which IAT (Instance Achievement Tracker mod) counted 5. Let him spawn 5 more, and dps'd him to 33%. He did Chains of Woe again, and we made sure IAT counted 10 total. Then we killed him. Easy achievement made 100x more difficult when soloing.

Do yourself a favor and beg/kidnap/bribe someone to help you. It will take 7 minutes of their life-- the rest of the Cataclysm meta achievement is soloable. If you don't know anyone in-game, I'd recommend posting on the Achievement discord or another popular WoW discord for a partner.

Ok! I finally got this done tonight thanks to all the helpful comments on here. Two things:

1- DO coax a friend to come...makes it easier by far! We went in naked, had rez sickness, made a /sit macro like the other commenters commented.
2- Get on a character that has not done shadowlands content yet! I went in on my level 60 with all the Shadowlands mess done...was naked and rez sick, but as we were in combat with the boss (not hitting him at all!) the health of the boss was going down tick by tick...and I was like "but why!" then i looked and he was getting hit by 'serrated spaulders' and i had zero idea what that was...come to find out it was an ability triggered by a soulbind thing from Shadowlands...it was hitting the boss man and his little friends that are needed to be alive. Came back in on a character that had not been to Shadowlands and got the achievement done!

Hope this helps someone! Best of luck! <3

I did it solo, as a level 50 demon hunter. You may be able to complete it if you're max level, take res sickness and are naked. I had a weapon equipped but it was a pretty low ilvl weapon. You must have a pretty good idea of how much damage you will do to the boss each hit so you don't overkill.

go to the boss area and clear the mobs
pull the boss over closer to the entrance of the fighting area - at the very least, get him to the centre
turn your back to the boss
watch for when the boss starts to cast quake. When he does, /sit. This, in addition to being faced away from the boss, increases the likelihood that quake will hit you, thus spawning the Angered Earth.
repeat step 4 until you have five Angered Earth*
bop the boss down one third of his health - 66% the first time, 33% the second. He'll cast the skullcracker
repeat steps 4 to 6 once
kill the boss

*You can't miss one successful casting of quake. You must be hit, and Angered Earth spawned, five times in a row. If you do not, start the quake > /sit method from one, even if you have a few around you already. They despawn too quickly to miss one.

My husband and I have been working on this achievement for ages but we kept getting the bug where the Skullcracker ability would cause the adds to despawn instead of actually killing them. I submitted a ticket and one of the suggestions was to disable all of our addons and then try. We did that and it worked! Achievement completed!

Comentado por FoxBJK

Got this done today with a lvl 45 hunter alt. The strategy is pretty much the same but every quake is guaranteed to spawn an add. I didn't have to spam 'sit', but I did still face away from the boss. Much easier than trying this with a 60.

Comentado por Benifey

Was able to do this without too much trouble on a lvl 46 survival hunter. Removed all my gear except for the weapon and spammed sit when he casts quake. The biggest thing was doing a few "dry run" pulls to figure out the right combo of cooldowns/abilities to instantly get him under 66% after he summons the 5th add, as you don't have much leeway between the cleave and the add despawning.

Comentado por Darkmanex

did this today on a lvl 50 dark iron dwarf warri - i would recommend lvl 45-48 - take all your gear out - i started the fight with a charge then 2x auto attack - he should be around 70% life but enough that 1 auto attack brings him under 66% life - then do the /sit technique - he had to hit all 5 quakes in a row or it dont time with the despawn (if so - go out of the instance and restart) - when the 5. mob spawn auto attack him as fast as possible - he then will kill them (i used instance archivment tracker or give the first mob a mark) after that then 2 auto attacks more - he should be about 33% but enough that 1 auto attack bring him under 33% - then again the /sit technique - and so on

i needed a few trys to find the perfect way - Good luck

Since I haven't seen this anywhere else, there is a 2 minute despawn on each earth, so use the ingame timer. And if you miss one quake cycle, restart, you wont make it. The /sit works, but you have to spam it as quick as you're able to after you see the quake cast.

My lvl 59 Warlock, no gear. One tick of drain life did 38k DMG. Damage must be between 57 and 112K to keep him between 66 and 33. Crits will bum #$%^ you on the second phase, so find the lowest damaging spell.

Remember the timer though, you have to be quick. I had one despawn during a smackdown cast and had to rezone. Good luck.

How to Do This Solo at Max Level (Currently 70) in Dragonflight

You'll need a second toon, at level 50. I did this today with a Level 70 Warlock and a Level 50 Mage.

Fly your level 50 toon to the entrance of Blackrock Caverns, and remove all gear - get nekkid. Log out.
Log on your 70 level toon, and buy a green weapon on the auction house in the 150 - 170 item level range.
Remove all your gear - get nekkid - and then equip ONLY your 150 - 170 green weapon. This will ensure you don't do too much damage in melee combat. You may need to adjust for other classes; I used a 170 wand on my Warlock.
Enter the instance on your level 70 - make sure it is Heroic! Leave the two casters in the first room. Clear the trash in the boss's room, being careful not to pull the boss.
Go back to the first room and walk into a caster, so it attacks you.
Start a Premade Group of type Custom, and name it something unique like 'blahblah'.
Then close the WoW client. You can't exit normally because you're in combat, so use the "X" on Windows or the red circle on MacOS.
Start WoW again and log in your level 50 toon. Find the group and Join. Close the WoW client.
Start WoW again and log in your level 70 toon. Invite the level 50 toon. Close the WoW client.
Start WoW again and log in your level 50 toon. Accept the invite, enter the instance. You should see your 70 in the first room, getting beaten on by the caster.
Walk into the second room with the boss, and pull the boss by walking into him. Pull him back toward the entrance to the first room, not quite all the way, but so you have plenty of space. Turn your now nekkid 50 toon away from the boss, so the boss just keep beating on your toons back. This will cause the Angered Earth mobs you need to destroy to appear on every Quake the boss does. You'll need five of them. Once you're in position and one of the mobs has spawned, you can close the WoW client again.
Start WoW again and log your 70 back in. Kill the caster who's been beating on you to no avail. Go up to the boss. Carefully engage the boss with only melee attacks, until he's down to about 75%.
Once FIVE of the Enraged Earth mobs have spawned, hit the boss in melee until he's under 66%. This will trigger the first set of chains. This will destroy the first FIVE Enraged Earth mobs. (you need 10)
The boss will now be aggro'd to your 70. Make sure he's in range of your level 50 toon so five more Angered Earth will spawn when he casts quake.
After five more Angered Earth spawn, melee the boss under 33%, he'll cast the second set of chains. Once you have gotten 10 Angered Earth down, you can kill the boss for the achievement.

It's a royal pain in the ass, but that's how it works.

I'd recommend two AddOns for helping with this:

PLATER for counting how many Angered Earth have spawned, since they can stack on top of each other
INSTANCE ACHIEVEMENT TRACKER will show you how many out of 10 you have gotten.

If you don't get FIVE or more with your first chains, run out of the dungeon to reset and try again. This will also let you see the fight to get the hang of it, as long as you don't kill the boss! Good luck!

Looks like this achievement is still bugged out, I've tried this achievement solo about 10 times now on 3 different characters. Adds spawn perfectly fine in dragonflight, been even using the sit macro just incase. What I've been running into is 5 adds spawn he does his aoe, they die; we repeat this again a second time killing the 10 needed but never gives me the achievement. This is with breaking and not breaking the chains. Naked and everything.

After trying multiple methods, the only foolproof way to do this is to pull together a group with an alt via the Alt-F4 method. Get both of you to boss area and engage the boss on whichever character will NOT be doing damage to him. Then Alt-F4 over to the toon who will be damaging boss. As others have mentioned this sometimes causes two adds to spawn on a quake which gives you a better shot of nailing 5 on one skullcracker. To limit damage from my max level dragonflight mage, I removed all gear and equipped a ilvl 104 wand which did about 3-4% boss damage a tick.

As of 10.2.6 this ach is not achievable on my level 70 prot pally.

Wearing no gear, having no weapons, on heroic difficulty one unarmed melee hit is 228k overkill on this Boss.
