Guidance and especially Friends are way too convenient to use in BG3. To the point where they should just auto apply both to every roll you ever make because you're always going to use them anyway. There's no downside or requirement of any kind. It's not a meaningful choice to cast them, it's just the tedium of having to click a few times more before rolling the actual check.
And with Friends and Guidance, social skill checks are largely trivial now.
You mean "you" are going to use them all the time? I have never used them, choosing instead to "let the dice fall where they may". How many times do you reload when you use it and it fails anyway? I reload party wipes, but since I'm not playing perma-death, that's to be expected. Dialog choices though? Nope, let the scenario play out however it's rolled.
