How to summon Gagana for The Castle in Ice in Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen
This guide covers the process of summoning Gagana during The Castle in Ice quest in Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen. Players must reach an open area with a Portcrystal, light three pyres, and place Nekkon corpses on them. Once all three pyres are burning, Gagana appears for a boss fight.
After joining Eir in the caves, the path opens into a space containing a permanent Portcrystal. This is the arena where Gagana is summoned. Nearby stairs lead to three pyres surrounded by bones and monster remains, signaling the required ritual.
Players must activate each pyre, then carry Nekkon bodies to them. Two Nekkon appear in the main room, while a third waits in adjacent caves. Using R2/RT, lift each corpse and set it on a pyre. Once all three burn, Gagana flies down for a boss encounter.
This guide may help players stuck on a demanding expansion quest, reducing frustration and letting them experience the Gagana battle. It could also strengthen community knowledge-sharing, as fans compare tactics and celebrate progress. For developer and publisher, clearer player guidance may sustain engagement with Dark Arisen content, though the effect is likely modest and limited to the game’s audience.
