Steps

Enter Crypt of Dalnir: Wizard's Den (Advanced Solo).
Help the Goblin soothsayer Shanks ( ) by turning the western statue "The Haggle Baron's Warden" and follow him...
...through to the green portal at down into the caves-like-area.
"Kill the brutes!: There are 4 groups of brutes and a single wanderer. Kill three of them and the wanderer.
- Note: You should leave one group up while you click on the blue-sparkles to "investigate" the area on the left as you come in. Killing all the brutes and the Rock Collector right-off bugs the quest. You lose the blue-shinies and the cage-doors do not become clickable, even though the quest updates to "Continue searching for Ghawg". That leaves you stuck because without the clickable cage-doors you can never get the update for "I didn't find Ghawg in the cages, but I heard a goblin scream".
Investigate (by right-clicking) the blue shiney spots at for a quest update.
Clear the cavern area to spawn The Rock Collector and kill him.
- Note: You can only defeat him if he is near the waterfall area. Keep your back against the waterfall so you won't have to deal with the knockback attacks as much.
Go to the Chasm of awaiting where the cages with the goblins are hanging from the ceiling. Search the cages for Ghawg by clicking some cages:
I didn't find Ghawg in the cages, but I heard a goblin scream.: Open door at and save Wreek by defeating an Obulus remnant.
Speak with Wreek
Go back to the green portal and destroy the targetable wall at by attacking it. Make sure you enter the crypt and get a quest update. The quest journal should say "Tell Wreek of the secret Crypt".
Tell Wreek at of the secret Crypt.
Defeat Nazkra rooming in the area around
- Quest update: there is no key to be found in these crypts. Return to Shanks.
At defeat a Kly assistant battling Shanks.
Speak to Shanks to get the key for the door behind it. Shanks gives you also Soothsayer's Bomb Dispenser.
Open the door and search the Mutation Hall for Ghawg.
- Look for the roaming gooblin with a quest feather. Defeat it and bodyloot Ghawg's chokidai teeth necklace.
- WARNING: Make sure EVERYONE loots the body to get the necklace. You may only get one necklace for each kill. If so, the gooblin with the feather will respawn. Only the people who do not have the necklace already can see him, but he appears to become visible to the whole group after that person attacks him. If you forget to loot for everyone, you appear to be able to go back to the same place and wait for another one to respawn.
- If there are groups of gooblins, and you have trouble with them, use the Soothsayer's Bomb Dispenser to root one or two of the gooblins and move the unrooted ones away to more easily take them down. It is also possible to watch the paths of the gooblins in groups of three, hug a wall and pass them to get to the gooblin with the feather.
Return to Wreek in the secret crypt .
- Evac works nicely here, or you can kill the Gooblin King and then use the purple teleporter.
