Glad to hear I'm not alone. I was beginning to think I was the only one struggling with this. I guess at the very least we can say that those two tadpole uses with Lae'zel and Wyll are problematic. Maybe other campanion-related tadpole uses work just fine. I may experiment some more in my upcoming true-soul playthrough.
I also found new companion camp dialogue unpredictable, but it may have been because I was overcamping trying to trigger the tadpole dream.
You mean the exclamation mark above their heads when you camp? I think I had a bug there as well, with Wyll coming up twice with same dialog about the fight at the gate when I think another dialog should have triggered instead. But some of these are really easy to miss. They don't always trigger when they should and they are easily overridden by other events. I hope they get fixed at some point.
