I would also like to fight Phase Spiders (in melee) with proper tactics like Ready Action and Protection Fighting Style. Rather than having to play the whac-a-mole king of the hill meme combat. But Larian decided for me it's not fun if I have to think too much or adapt to different types of encounters. It's more fun to rush to high ground and push stuff down in every single fight. And jump out of surfaces while you're at it. And get your PC's one shot by push arrows and shoves from low level minions. Or exploit game breaking mechanics so the enemies don't even get to fight back. Such fun.

/sarcasm. Please improve combat to at least what the raw source material offers.
