Sword Coast Adventures was a gateway mini-game introduced with Patch NW.10.20131211a.7 on December 19th, 2013. Players choose 4 of their character's companions to send on adventures with dice-rolling challenges. Rewards include enchantments and seals.

Cryptic officially announced the Gateway closing down as of Thursday, September 15th, 2016.
Adventures[ | ]
The player is presented with a selection of adventures, one from each tier. Tiers are designed for a party of companions in a specific rank-range, and cost increasing amounts of stamina. Each adventure includes various challenges and a boss. The adventure ends at the defeat of the boss, even if side-challenges were available. Losing a challenge costs health. Winning or losing a challenge puts the selected companion to rest. The rest state ends when all companions in the party have had a turn.
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Since Module 6: Elemental Evil this is useless and has been replaced, after Patch_NW.45.20150416c.4 , by a second Tier 1 adventure which disappears after being completed once.
