A full guide for all achivments will be posted later by our raid team’s organiser “Amazingdruid”.

For this achievement you will want to collect the four Prismas around phase 2 of the Sylvannas encounter. There will be one Prisma for each covenant. These Prismas will spawn on fixed spots through the phase 2.
1 Prisma is right behind you where you spawn.
2nd Prisma is on the furthest back on the 3rd chain-platform
3rd Prisma is on the left end of the 4th chain-platform (and can be seen when you start in phase 2)
4th Prisma is on the 5th chain-platform in the far end (run strait and go to the left).
While the Prismas’ spawn location is fixed, the order of them is random. It is important to remember the order of how the Prisma spawn as this will trigger the final effect of the achievement in phase 3.
After collecting all 4 Prismas and entering Phase 3. All players will start on the “maldraxxus” platform which can be seen as there is a large Maldraxxus symbol on the platform. If you run clockwise the platforms are (when starting at the Maldraxxus platform):

Maldraxxus – Venture – Kyrian – Night Fae.
Through phase 3, Anduin is fighting Jaina, Bolvard and Thrall on the middle platform. During these fight Auduin will at times cast Blasphemy https://www.wowhead.com/spell=357731/blasphemy. By having each Prisma carrier standing on their platform (Maldraxxus Prism on the Maldraxxus symbol etc.) the focusing Prisma will be activated.

However, the players with the Prismas must enter the symbols in the same order as the orbs spawn, els they will interrupt each other.
So pick up the Prisma. Have each player jump over to the platform representing their Prisma and go on top off the symbols in the same order as the Prismas are found before Anduin finishes his cast on:

As of 11/07/2021 this achievement is bugged. The recent hot fixes seems to have bugged the fight. As soon as we are able to do it we will post a guide.

Sylvanas Windrunner -
This World is a Prism

You have made it to the last boss and you are close!

This achivement start in phase 2 of the fight where we cross chains, on these chains you will find Prism's (looks like balls) for each of the four covanant.

Location for the four prism's will always be the same but the covanant specific prism is random and we will get back to that.

In phase 3 as a player we can move to 4 diffrent platform's, if you look at the floor and see the sigil you will notice the first platform is Necrolord and if you continue clockwhise you will see Venthyr-Kyrian-Night Fae in that order.

Back to the prism's we picked up in p2, they will have to be on its own covanent platform with the player standing on the sigil and you will see a channel apear on Anduin Wrynn

Remember i said the order we pick them up in p2 is random each time ? This play a big role in what order you want to step into the sigil's

Let's say you pick them up in this order Kyrian-Necrolord-Night Fae-Venthyr. Then you have to step on to the sigil in that order, othewhise you will cancel the channel from what we experienced.

You know you made the achievement requirments when the 4 players drop the prism's and disappear.

I've had alot of questions regarding Sylvanas and tried to help other groups, but it doesnt seem to work for them at this moment, and my group are 100% sure this is the intended way to do this achivement since it was our idea and worked first try for us when we finally figured it out.

Additional information from our raid yesterday:

We had no bug at this achiv, we got it our sec pull. The explanation is pretty easy to understand and we did it like descibed. What we realized, that after a few seconds the cast line just disappears.
So we looked that we did those two things:
1. We only called out the order, as the ppl reached all four their platforms we said "START" and then the ppl stepped on the symbols in the right order looking for themselves when the line of the previous symbol was seen. That was fast enough that all lines were up.
2. The most important for us, we played like "FIRST STEP COUNTS". As in Tazavesh there is already a "first click counts" achiv, so I assumed that could be the same here. We forbid EVERYONE to step on the symbols. The sigil holder had to make it in the first try/first step.

So for us it worked out that way. Good luck!

This World is a Prism

For this fight you'll need one person of each covenant to pick up four different orbs.

During phase two of the Sylvanas Windrunner fight you need to find the four different orbs on the chains and use them in the order that you picked them up on their respective platforms. To use the orbs all you need to do is walk on to the sigils in the order that you picked up the orbs and then finish the fight as normal.
When doing this my group found it easiest if the DPS did it while the healers and tanks stayed on the first platform you land on when entering phase 3

Comment by pokakap

Do phase 1 as normal as the prism collection takes place during intermission.

Please note: the location of each prism is fixed, but the order they appear in is random

The first prism is behind where you spawn. You do NOT need to be a member of the covenant to collect the prism.

You can catch a glimpse of the third prism before leaving the first chain.

The second prism is on the third chain, at the far end. Grab this after the Sylvanas burn.

The third prism is on the fourth chain on side furthest from the bridge.

The fourth prism is and the end of the 5th chain, on the far side.

Once in the final phase, each prism carrier needs to go to their respective platforms and stand on their symbol.

In case you forgot:
Maldraxxus (Necrolord) is green
Ardenweald (Night Fae) is Dark Blue
Bastion (Kyrian) is Light Blue
Revendreth (Venthyr) is Red

After activating the focusing prism, complete the fight as normal.

The prism is a debuff - divine shield (paladin bubble) and likely other invulnerabilities like ice block remove it, so unbind them if you're assigned to a prism.

Comment by Schattensang

So considering the order you have to active them: It really doesn't matter at all. I got venthyr as second orb, activated it last. Our Maldraxxus Orb was on the mark the first thing, before other people even jumped to the next platform, so time isn't important either. And our Night Fae player broke the beam for a moment because he stepped back off the symbol, but it still was good enough for the achievement.

Comment by Hopsea

Just did this with my group at the start of 9.1.5, a couple of things to note.

1.) You Do NOT need to be in the particular covenent to pick up an orb.
2.) Orbs do randomly spawn in P2 in different spots
3.) Everyone can step on the symbols in P3 at the same time.
4.) You DO NOT need to interrupt Anduin in P3
5.) Your 4 people DO NOT need to afk on their symbols the whole fight. Once you complete the requirements everyone can run back to dps/heal.

I highly suggest someone in charge of the run to have the addon: Instance Achievement Tracker. It will track everything you could possibly want.

NOTE: Druid shapeshifting will make you drop the orb!

Comment by Clypse

Might sound obvious but can't be soloed at the moment.
You can only pick up one orb at a time.
Hence, you need a minimum of 4 toons.

Comment by Clypse

I tried to use Alts and ALT-F4ing to do this achievement.
Unfortunately, it's not possible because your toon drops the orb when offline.
Need 4 toons online.

Edit: I was able to recruit 3 friends quit fast with group finder.
We did it on 2nd try since I fell in the first run...
Also, in retrospective, the channeling time is too quick for the ALT-F4 method as well.

Important: Order DOESN'T matter. We did it out of order.

With that out of the way, the rest of the Meta is soloable with an Alt
