This is my guide for Act 1 that I optimized for in game time because I'm a crazy person. I just I share it here.
Note: This guide is for all Act 1 quests except for Caparison Hunter, Nothing Line Housework, Bewitched, Golden Carrot, and Attitude Adjustment. (CH, NLH, BW are way easier to complete during Act 2. GC will cost an additional day. AA is a massive time sink).
Note: If you go to sleep at 5:59 am or earlier then you don't rollover to the next day.
Note: If you want to stay pure but plan on taking some corrupt actions or use corrupt TFs the get velun's blessing from Sanders first.
Important: Save all Study Stone, Pristine Wood, Broken Metal Parts, Lingering Embers, Leananstone and Winterstem.
Occasionally in the guide I'll put in downtime. For downtime, work on raising Ryn's Confidence, TF companions, read spell tomes, Transform yourself, etc. (That is if you want to)
