Captain Kromcrush is an ogre mini-boss found in the Gordok Commons of Dire Maul. He holds the [Gordok Shackle Key].
He is captain of King Gordok's elite forces of ogres and commands the fearsome guards that roam the ruins. He can be tricked by a party member wearing the [Gordok Ogre Suit] and talking to him; this will cause him to leave his post and allow the party to bypass him on their way to King Gordok.
Adventure Guide
Even among ogres, Captain Kromcrush is infamous for his hair-trigger rage toward anyone who dares to insult him or King Gordok. He crushes dissent ruthlessly, but he has still less patience for those who continue to spread the rumor of his torrid affair with a gnoll long ago.

Strategy
At the initial pull, pull him a good way back to avoid being feared into the next trash packs. Watch out for his Mortal Cleave, it does a lot of damage and places a healing reduction on the tank. At 50% health, he will summon two elite guards. Offtank one of these and sheep/seduce the other.
