This can be solved already, for instance by having a single character initiate combat whilst the others are out of sight. You can then, at your leisure, move into any position as long as you are not spotted. Super powerful advantage.


Yeah sure, but it takes awfully long and you are bound to the limitations of the already slow combat. In any normal game you would just pause, position your people with one click and initiate combat. The BG3 system is cumbersome, unintuitive and slow. It is basically the worse workaround to a problem that does not need to exist in the first place.
