It’s hard to work out from just observing them. From the way people talk about it though, you do not want to get close to Plaguelost creatures. It is said the Ash Doom sucks the life from its victims.
(OOC: I may have been unclear what Xanrym was proposing...)
Xanrym was thinking that the Plaguelost are basically undead spawned from those killed by the Ash Doom plague. The (living) people in Pedestal avoid the Plaguelost or kill them. Since no one has offered us details about the Plaguelost, Xanrym though that The Company go on a little hunt. We would go closer to the site of the Plagueburst and try to find one or two of the Plaguelost that are on their own and attack them from a distance. He intended to stay stay 60-ft or more away from them. Just hit them with ranged attacks and fall back, checking to see which of their weapons / spells are most effective.
Xanrym figured that it would be better to do that experiment at a time and place of our own choosing. He didn't want to wait until The Company is in the Necromancer's Spike and suddenly facing a large group of Plaguelost at close quarters to discover their abilities. If the Plaguelost are immune to fire or explode when destroyed or something like that, he thought that it would be better to learn that before we enter the Necromancer's Spike.
When Khessa returns, she's definitely in agreement. Fine by me.
He will plus arrows so he has a ranged weapon: heavy cross bow with 40 bolts
