If memory serves though, Zarra only has one attack per round correct. Meaning being able to sneak attack shouldn't be an issue, unless I am forgetting something, like advantage rolls or something.

First, to double check, I was the one who caught those 5 cultist with hypnotic pattern, right?
Second, how many rounds did your description take into account? I was going to blast a couple.
Third, I am not sure what the confusion is over haste. People will be hasted when I post "Ignazio casts haste" I wanted to first incapacitate a group to let us clear their ranks. Once my first concentration spell wears off, I will consider casting haste. Hope that clears it up.
Daishain, if by some chance Poljen's first attack drops his opponent, rather than move up he would use the Hand Axe of Returning for the second strike, and Bonus Action to get it back into his hand. If that is what happens, the damage roll would be different of course… but since I doubt the first shot is enough to drop a guard, the second sword strike to the same guy obviously.
