air warning, not resting enough screws you over. Not sure what the minimal safe amount of rests is, but do at least 3 per act. You gain nothing from not resting often enough, but you can miss things.
Example1: if you do not rest enough in act 1, the owlbear cub will not join you, after you freed it.
Example2: not resting enough in act2 will ruin your romance with Bae'Zel, because you need to rest in the Shadowfell to advance it. The relationship event requires a few full rests to appear.
Example3: Scratch will be available much later. Not helpful, unless you are planning to savescum to find hidden treasure.
I had to put down my Shart in act 2 and I think it had to do with not taking enough long rests. People have been telling me about cutscenes that never happened in my playthrough.
