You realize from Reverie's attack that the ooze is immune to slashing damage, and it causes the ooze to divide into 2 smaller versions, that still do the normal attack damage. So you won't want to increase the number of attackers, if you can help it.
Reverie has taken 5 damage. Her dagger has a -1 modifier due to the acid damage.
Ooze A has taken 10 damage. Ooze B has taken 9 damage. (When the ooze divided, the hit points were divided between the two smaller oozes.)
The party can act. When they are done, the 2 oozes will go. Ooze A is in melee range of Reverie, Ooze B is in melee range of Froskan.

Jack frowns. All he has is Slashing damage! Oh well. Jack runs next to Reverie, and shouts at the slime (A) again. “Hey ! Ye wanna pick on someone? Pick on someone your own size! Not that ye can, shorty.” This hurts it’s poor feelings! (DC16 or 2 and disadvantage) Reverie is Inspired by this act of bravery!

Reverie couldn't help but smirk when Jack calls the ooze as a shorty. But slashing attack wouldn't work on the ooze, wondering if she could do the other way. Looking down on her damaged dagger, she frowns slightly before she looks back at the ooze. "Can anyone of us freeze these ooze or burn it?" She asks, gazing at the ooze still, "Ice would be great for the ooze so we could shatter them."

Hmmm, is the ooze also immune to slashing damage from a magical weapon, and will said weapon get jacked up from the acid?
...or is there only one way to find out? Lol
(OOC: I'll give this one to you.
Magic weapons resist acid or rusting damage in general, and will be okay in this encounter. This thing is immune to slashing damage, magic or otherwise, and any slashing damage will split it into more foes.)

Ooze B moves towards either Iskander or Froskan (1,2: Iskander; 3,4 Froskan - 4), and attacks. Pseudopod Attack: 8 Damage: 5 + 16 acid damage (misses Froskan)
(Doesn't matter for damage, but does make a difference for whether I'm in melee with something or not...coud the ooze actually reach me? I said in my post that I was backing away as far as I could after casting my frostbite the first round. Started beyond melee range, and 30 foot movement speed to back away should leave me plenty out of range of the ooze. But I don't know what kind of area we're fighting in, if I'd have ROOM to back away that far)
(OOC: You are right, I missed that. Froskan is out of melee range in the SE corner of the room, about 15’ from the oozes.
If you look back at the text map, the room is 30’ (N-S) by 20’ (E-W). The oozes are just west of the middle of the room.)

(cool. Forgot there was a text map.)
Already knowing that cold was useless against the ooze, Froskan latches on to the other half of Reverie's suggestion and tries fire instead. Rolling a ball of flames between his hands, he launches it at the nearest ooze, hoping it works better than his last spell.
Radiant damage is too, if Reverie decides to use Divine Smite with her dagger.)

Reverie stares down on her dagger that got damaged for a moment. "Maybe I can try," she says and then uses Divine Smite to the ooze that is nearby her.

(OOC: If it makes any difference, a "7" is what you need to hit, and it still would have been oozing around without the Divine Smite damage.)
Round 2 Player Actions
Trim snipers another arrow for good damage (10) before it is dissolved. Isk blasts (7 damage) and Froskan unleashes a ball of flame (11 damage).
Reverie is just able to stab the ooze in a vital spot (4 damage). It is sluggish, but still moves towards her. She channels divine energy (4 radiant) through the dagger, and Ooze A is baked into a dry stain. Reverie does take another 5 points of acid damage, and her dagger is now at -2 modifier.
Jack gives Reverie some bardic inspiration, since she is in a table-flipping rage at the moment. Since Ooze A is no more, he mocks Ooze B viciously. (WIS save vs. DC 14: 6 ) You wouldn't think that a blob of goo would respond to being called "shorty", but Jack puts enough sneering contempt in his voice to do 2 psychic damage.
Round 2 Ooze Actions
Ooze A is contemplating its life choices in the afterlife. Since Jack ran next to Reverie, Ooze B will either attack him (1-2) or Reverie (3-4). (Roll: 4
Ooze B strike at Reverie (with disadvantage): Attack: 6 Damage: 6 bludgeoning + 16 acid. The Ooze hits Reverie for another 25 damage (plus the 5 acid when she hit with the dagger). Her chain mail is damaged.

Ooze A is dead. Ooze B has taken 11 damage total, and is in melee range of Reverie and Jack.
Reverie is at 1 HP. Her dagger has a -2 modifier, and her chain mail -1 modifier (her AC is 16 until she can get repairs). She does have bardic inspiration from Jack.

OoC - damn! Engaging the ooze in melee is rough!
Isk calls out to Reverie, "Hang in there Rev! I'll get to the wounds after this slime goes down." Then he unleashes another Eldritch Blast and gives it a good Hexing, DEX checks getting disadvantage. Attack: 17 Damage: 8 + 4
