[ACT 3 SPOILERS] I have a question or two about the end of the game

[THIS POST CONTAINS ACT 3 SPOILERS! DUH!]

Hey everyone,

I have two small questions about the last zone but I'm afraid if I look them up I'll find more than I want to know.

I ended last night at a courtyard with enemies all around and a restoration pod out front. I saved and clicked the pod, noting it is single-use. I also aggroed by accident and saw that more enemies spawn once the fight gets going.

So my questions are:

Is this one long gauntlet to the boss or are there more encounters along the way? I've had the stupid "save that for later!" mindset the whole game and I want to actually use the allies and items I've collected before the credits roll.
If not, is this the last restoration pod? I'm only down a few spell slots but if it's the last opportunity to Long Rest I might as well take it

Thank you in advance!

There are two battles before the final boss. One is the courtyard you are at. The other isn't so much a battle as a harried sprint to your objective. There's another restoration pod at the door to the boss. Go ham.

Edit: The final boss fight is not a gimme, though, so don't use up all your consumables on the way there! I went into part of it expecting a victory lap and got my shit packed.
- You can skip the Courtyard too provided you have a character with enough movement, actions, and flight.
  
  A Thief Rogue or Monk with a Potion of Speed and/or Potion of Flight can travel stupid distances in one round.
- I forgot to use them until the last fight and then I had them all on the field by turn 3 lol
  
  I also had like 14 summons which was....slow but effective
I only used a couple of mine thinking there would be more fights and I needed to save them, and then I just dominated the boss fight with barely using any help either. I saved before I entered the final area so I could do different choices, so ill probably just drop almost everything I have in the courtyard and go from there on my next go.
Yeah if I remember right after that it's just one fight,I'd rest and go
- Thank you! So that's no break between this battle and the final boss? I have like 8 different allies to summon so I figured there'd be multiple chances to use them after getting them
  
  There's like 3ish "battles" before the end, but they all have an ilithid healing pod before or in them.
