Pike was not yet in Rage - if we could not see the Arena to know enemy distance he would not have entered Rage in advance, so he takes the full 24 damage, noted on his sheet.
Pike uses a Bonus Action to enter Rage and flies directly South, moving and then Dashing, and stopping as soon as he gets to the other side of the Darkness, at which time he will look around to survey what he can see, likely noticing the Drow Elite to the East and West, and ending his movement there.
He moves and dashes the full movement ending at AF39.

Now with Haste factored on (as noted on the OOC forum) Pike's revised action, the first part is similar, entering Rage as a Bonus action, but with doubled movement to 80 he would not need to dash to cross the area of Darkness, and can instead fly to AF34, attack Drow Elite, and then end his movement at AF37.
He attacks with Reckless Attack and Great Weapon Master, Targeting first Drow Elite 1, and if it drops, moving 5 feet to continue attacks against Drow Elite 2, before ending his movement 10 feet off the ground at AF 37.

tobias Moves West (not sure if you meant East here instead, but I moved you West as indicated.) Then readies a scorching ray. (Can you reply if you meant West and not East? West is past the rest of the group and further away from the gunslingers you are targetting with your readied action. East would take you towards the corner and nearer the two gunslingers you are trying to hit.)
pike (bless, Psychic Resistance, haste) Two of your strikes hit home (don't believe you rolled bless on here, so, when the elite warrior used parry the bless got you to at least 21 and it hits) He is still standing though.
