Even more bullshit is when you come upon Elminster and he wants to rest, lets go you say. Then after the long rest the game wants you tjo long rest literally 15 meters after Elminster since you transition to act 2. Luckily you don't have to spend resources for that rest but still...

That's the exact part of the game I was talking about. I had just rested, then the Elmenster thing happened, then the dragon rider dude. That's a lot of sleepy time!

Wait where the hell is Elminster? In act 1?? Did I fucking permanently miss a companion because I failed a DC 10 strength check and despite scouring act 1 before going to act 2 I didn't find Elminster?

Elminster doesn’t end up as a companion. He is in the mountain pass before act 2 and you need to have recruited Gale. You probably took the underdark route in which he doesn’t show up.

To be clear, I was told that's where to get Gale if you missed him in the portal. Fuck this game lmao.

Elminster is either in the area directly after using the elevator in Grymforge or in front of the entrance to the Shadowlands in the Mountain Pass. He's not a companion though but progresses Gale's personal quest.
