I'm not sure when the timer starts on Minsc blowing his top. I think its after you pick him up at the edge of town. One thing that seems to keep that from happening is to use other party members to find the fortress first. Then go get him. I have cleared out the fort and not recruited the mage until I cleared out the fort then go pick him up after dumping two party members I don't want. Then fight my way back into fortress. There are not nearly as many puppys in there to get in your way and the loot they drop may not be much. But every little bit helps. Including getting more XP's. LOL
