Prioritizing quest types (spoiler-free)

[ahsanford]

I'm about 10 hours in and my quest log is properly filling up.

So it seems like I can spend my time doing:

Signs and Portents quests = seems like main plot advancers
Companion quests = level up my associates with dedicated two person moves
Factions and Regions quests = seems like exploring maps and building them out

I'm going to do the entire game like I always do, but what's everyone's strategy for how to order/prioritize the work?

Should I keep pushing the Signs and Portents stuff to build out the team or should I graze a bit? I'm just wondering if I push too much main story if I'll block out the ability to explore certain areas or complete specific side quests.

I also ask because I did a faction quest and ran into a properly unkillable boss after a 20+ minute fight. No indication of difficult or level in the quest log, and no, I'm not going to lower difficulty for what was easily 10x harder than anything I've seen so far. All gear max upgraded possible (for so early in the game) and it was still ridiculous.

Plenty of other quests to hit, but if the game if wants to periodically pivot to souls-like they could at least give me a skull indicator in the quest log, right?
