Khessa stands 30' from the Drider, her magical Greatsword at the ready: "Go on and roast Mr SpiderDrow, Teldrin... Then I'll charge and slice it for good".
Close enough now, Xanrym moves forward to empty a flask of oil right below the drider. He figures that Theldrin'sFireball will ignite it, causing extra damage. He checks what Syllen plans to do. Xanrym can use Unsettling Words to help ensure Syllen's or Theldrin's spell takes full effect: the other spellcasters just need to make sure that the right one casts his spell first. Then Xanrym moves back, away from from the drider, and behind Avery and Khessa and checks: "Is everyone ready? On my signal, Syllen and Theldrin will start the assault. Then Khessa and Avery can charge, and Coriana and I will let loose our attacks. Just remember that it can use the walls or ceiling to move around us."
Movement: Move up to the drider and then back away after emptying a flask of oil. Action: Utilize one flask of oil, covering a 5-ft square just beneath the front of the drider in oil. Free Action: Talking, coordinating everyone's "readied" actions to start in round 6.
(OOC: Unless someone has something else that they need to coordinate, we can "start" in round 6, next round. At the start of round 6:
Xanrym and Coriana will ready their cantrips.
Syllen or Theldrin, depending on whose spell needs Xanrym's debuff more, will start.
Then the other one (Theldrin or Syllen) can cast his spell.
Avery and Khessa attack the drider.
Xanrym's and Coriana's readied actions can trigger on Khessa's attack.
That should take us to the start of round 7, and Xanrym and Coriana should get another turn before the drider's turn comes up.
I doubt that we'll finish it off before it can attack, but hopefully this coordinated attack ensures that it only gets one round of attacks, and it won't be able to get away before we kill it.
@werelemur, @JehanO - If Syllen is going to go for Entangle again, I think that we should use the Unsettling Words debuff for that since it will benefit everyone's attacks if the drider is restrained. If not, Xanrym could use the Faerie Fire scroll to try to give everyone's attacks advantage. Or, if that seems like overkill, we can just use the debuff to maximize the damage from Theldrin's Fireball.
“I shall attempt to restrain the creature. If you could assist me that would be much appreciated.”
After Xanrym uses cutting words Syllen will cast Entangle. If the creature fails it has disadvantage on its Dex saves and everyone has advantage on attacks.
Syllen uses Wild Resurgence to get a spell slot back.
Action: Cast Entangle

"I could start the attack by hitting it with a Fireball," Theldrin muses. "These things seem pretty tough."
"I won't take first shot but I'll be aiming until the right time," says Coriana, the words to an Eldritch Blast on her lips.
Action: Ready an Eldritch Blast to fire on the drider as soon as another party member damages it.

Still coordinating...
