Because his weave scene is tied to approval (ugggggg), not resting number. It is VERY badly done, and is almost impossible to get if you do druid grove early…unless you metagame and rest waaaaaay more than you need to.

I too like to conserve resources and only rest when I need to replenish spells. My first playthru, I missed all kinds of things by approaching this like a challenging game. But ye gods…between all the scrolls lying around and (before they fixed it) food as a healing potion? I did not need to rest for a loooooooong time.

Now, even tho I do not need to, I just rest as often as I can to make sure I don’t miss things. It is stupid and totally takes me out of the game because it is metagaming to get known dialogue scenes. Total Bummer.

I do hope they fix this.
