And even long rests are basically free, so unless you are in one of the rare time sensitive moments use them a lot.
Wait, is this true? I’ve been avoiding even short rests since the game tells you so explicitly that time sensitive things can get messed up by too many long rests, and the early plot is super clear that having a tadpole usually means death/mind-flayer-dom within a week. So I’ve been SUFFERING through every single fight since I need to conserve short rests. Can I actually long rest without dooming myself?
There are maybe one or two quests that are actually urgently time sensitive. Don’t be afraid to rest, the game will warn you if you’re going to mess up a quest before it happens. Resting is also how you get a lot of important camp scenes with the companions.
Also, short rests will never mess up a quest. Do one after nearly every fight.
