Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Shove should be an action

Both Repelling Blast and Battle Master's Pushing Attack are chosen abilities though, you pick them at the cost of other abilities.
Battle Master even has to use a resource to push.

Yes Repelling Blast is "free" but warlocks pay for this by having a very small pool of spells, and less spell slots. Eldrich Blast is meant to become very powerful.

I enjoy shove as a bonus action, but I see that it's a bit of an overpowered ability as it stands.

If it was bade an attack action, and you could use it as one of your attacks with multi attack (as you can in 5e) then I think it would still do it's job.
