@otakarkuby3926 :) up until a certain point, only the puppies can harm momma HoX, so it's all about keeping them charmed and buffed (and only fighting her) so they can damage her as quickly as possible. You get the charming stones from the mindflayers that spawn from the portals - they spawn one by one, but only 4 first, then later more. So it's really important to keep beholders from removing the charm (their antimagic will remove it), or you're in trouble. On this difficulty it's also important to keep as many players alive as possible, as things quickly spiral when ppl start dying.
Its a bonkers quest only done it a few times. I didnt know what to do so followed instructions and essentially piked.
