I addressed that in additional post, which is basically:

1. GWM weapons in BG3 won't get positioning advantage, they do now, but it's a bug as the ingame-tip states directly that only light melee weapons enjoy backstabbing.
2. Ranged builds in 5e are not exactly DPR powerhouses, same goes for light weapon users. So, if anything, this should be welcomed as a potential boost to these build to not make them irrelevant in fast of all these GWM/PoM DPR builds and what not.


You never playerd an Elf SS samurai ???

I'm surprised that u are claiming that ranged builds are not DPR powerhouses. Actually they are, Sorlock and SS samurai with elven accuracy are two top DPR builds in 5e. High ground can make them even more powerful.
