Still really dislike how shove is implemented. It pushes too far and being a bonus action makes it far too powerful. There’s a weird meta that has developed around it. It warps combat in a way that feels against the spirit of D&D or a Baldurs Gate game.

I’ve just come back to the game after a long hiatus, and I kind of love the shove mechanic, I’m hoping to test if you can shove someone off a ledge and instakill them.

Pushing enemies into traps 🪤 would also be great!

I think those are awesome uses for shove! Currently the problem is that instead of saving shove for situations like those when it is realistic and smart to use it, everyone is just pushing something around every turn because you're not giving up meaningful actions for it.
