Plan is to use Eldar as offensively to run up the board, and use the tau as back field. I put this together because these are most of the models I like to look at, but I still want to be semi competitive with the list. atm this is 1510 so i need to drop 10 points. Question is should I drop the xv88 for a sky ray to boost up the bikes, or drop locks cause there not worth it ? The only other troop I like from either book is the eldar spiners, or lowering the warp spiders down, or not giving them an exarch, but they are just there to help the seers to get across the board ,so they can use their powers offensively. Any thoughts on the list would be helpful.

The spirit stone of anath'lan is a limit one per army item, so you have to drop one, putting you under points. I would take spears on both seers, and honestly the stones are not great, but if you have to take them a bikeseer is the best place.

The warlocks are a bit meh, as Ld8 is not reliable for psychic tests. Your jetbike squads need to have 6 bodies to get the second cannon.

Why the exarch on the spiders if your not buying anything for him? The BS is really the only benefit you need...

Gun drones are okay I suppose, if just for ablative wounds.

Consider a second support system for the tide since you have the slot. What is your second gun?

well if i drop the exarch and 1 spider up the bikes to 6 each and give them a cannon but that puts me at 1501 drops the spiders to 8 and dropping the 1 stone
