Certainly appears that it would take four clears to achieve this, as the criteria is both to destroy Deathwing and start the battle on different platforms.

From what I've seen of videos, it would appear that this achievement may be deceptively challenging, as each aspect gives you a different buff that is removed progressively through the fight. By starting on a different platform each time (in attempting to obtain this achievement), you'll likely have to alter your strategy for handling and losing these buffs, not only at the start but through the rest of the fight as well.

Of note, it also uses the Chromatic Dragon mount's head as an icon, and with two of the three models of Alexstrasza's drake-mounts having been revealed as drops for Normal and Heroic Deathwing, respectively, perhaps the full meta will be the Chromatic Dragon mount that was showcased recently?

EDIT: The mount's name I was referring to is Heart of the Aspects . It would be nice to see a cool meta mount that isn't just a reskin of a raid drop!

Killing Ysera first:
You lose Ysera's Presence and her Enter the Dream special ability that reduces all your damage taken by 50% for 5 seconds (30 sec cooldown) which can be helpful for reducing damage taken from Elementium Bolt, Impale or Blistering Heat. This is the platform you will start on when you are fighting the boss normally simply because all the other dragons give you much better buffs.
The best order when starting on Ysera's platform: Ysera -> Alexstrasza -> Nozdormu -> Kalecgos

Killing Nozdormu first:
You lose Nozdormu's Presence and his Time Zone that slows the Elementium Bolt and gives you time to destroy it before it even reaches the ground and does huge damage to everyone in the raid. Time Zone also slows the attack speed of Regenerative Blood while it stands in it so the Degenerative Bite debuff it applies on the tank stacks slower. Starting on this platform shouldn't be too difficult since the buffs you gain aren't that great and you can mitigate the damage from the meteor crash with Ysera's Enter the Dream special ability.
The best order when starting on Nozdormu's platform: Nozdormu -> Alexstrasza -> Ysera -> Kalecgos

Killing Alexstrasza first:
You lose Alexstrasza's Presence and her Cauterize which helps you kill the Blistering Tentacles that spawn from Arm Tentacles. The Blistering Tentacles are immune to AoE damage so your DPS will need to be fast on killing them before damage gets too high.
The best order when starting on Alexstrasza's platform: Alexstrasza -> Ysera -> Nozdormu -> Kalecgos

Killing Kalecgos first:
You lose Kalecgos' Presence and his Spellweaving which helps you killing the Regenerative Blood that Deathwing spawns during Hemorrhage. This will be the hardest way to defeat the boss because you will need VERY high DPS to kill the Regenerative Blood on the remaining 3 platforms without Kalecgos' buff.
The best order when starting on Kalecgos' platform: Kalecgos -> Ysera -> Nozdormu -> Alexstrasza

Completed this achievement tonight and can conclusively say a few things about it. First, I can confirm that there are unfortunately no bonus rewards tied to its completion, as I know there was a lot of speculation about it potentially being linked to the Heart or Soul of the Aspects chromatic dragon mount and/or pet. ~~This leads me to believe that they will likely be associated with the completion of the legendary daggers.~~ (Edit: It seems that they will be sold as a Blizzard Store mount and pet, with the recent announcement of the Heart of the Aspects mount on sale for $25 USD).

Furthermore, if you're looking to complete this achievement, for a guild that is into heroic modes, it's really not very difficult, especially if you do Kalecgos last, after you've had time to acquire as many gear upgrades as possible. The above comment by GMChocolate sums up the strategies and ideal order for each method quite nicely, so I recommend utilizing those suggestions when you do this for yourselves. Kalecgos really was the only one that we found remotely challenging, and it pretty much boiled down to effectively AoEing the hemorrhage adds quickly enough (I suggest stacking them on the tentacle for splash damage) to still be able to beat all the Cataclysm casts.

It is also worthwhile to note that if you are using Alexstrasza or Nozdormu as your last platform, you will have to jump through Deathwing's slouched over body to get to Ysera's platform. This is because the tentacles and adds in phase 2 will only spawn on Ysera's platform, even though you can DPS Deathwing from Nozdormu's platform. If you neglect to jump over (or simply didn't realize, like us at first), you'll quickly start taking shrapnel casts from the adds but won't be able to attack them without swapping platforms mid-phase, likely resulting in a wipe. So remember to get to Ysera's platform at the beginning of phase 2, even if it seems strange jumping through Deathwing's mouth!

Best of luck to anyone going for this, and please feel free to reply if you have any questions!

It's worth to remember, if you assault Red or Bronze LAST, you still need to jump back to Green platform, even though you can attack DW's head from Bronze platform..

This is because small tentacles and Terrors only spawn on Green platform.

This nearly caused us to wipe last night, when we did Blue -> Green -> Bronze -> Red..

We finished the achievement tonight (10% nerf) doing Kalecgos using the following order:

Blue > Yellow > Red > Green

We used 1 tank, 2 heals and 7 dps and one-shot the achievement fairly easily. The idea is the 20% healing boost and extra dps toons makes the fight zergable - every corruption dies after one impale and everything just melts. Saving the green until last also gives your raid the button to use for every elementium bolt and every time damage spikes (at the end of each limb and during blistering tentacles).

Finished this achievement off with Blue > Green > Yellow > Red with a raid of 23. Had DPS kill adds on the first 3 platforms(with the haste buff) after they came up, then ignored them on the 4th platform until we got spellweave back after dpsing down the tentacle. Used a paladin tank and a warrior tank to bounce aggro back and forth on the adds to keep the stacks from becoming unhealable.

now at 25percent, with 3 friends and two sales in raid we nailed yellow on heroic no problem.

one shot, and laughable.

Commento di Popper

We had three parts of this achievement, and then killed Kalecgos first last week, but didn't get credit for the kill in the achievement. Several ticket responses said Bliz acknowledged there's an issue here, and engineering is working on it. We are waiting to hear that it's fixed so we can re-do that last part and get credit for the achievement.
