Shove is a basic, common action available to almost every humanoid. Because of [[falling damage]] and chasms, shoving can be a extremely potent action both when used by the party or against it. Shove has a dedicated keybind (V) on the keyboard and mouse interface, or it can be used from the ability bar like any other ability. | |||
Using Shove will show a percentage chance preview and the trajectory and landing position of the object or character if the push is successful. Whether or not the shove is successful depends and the distance of the shove depends on a number of factors described below. | |||

When targeting an ally, Shove does not require a skill check and will always succeed, provided all other prerequisites for a successful shove are met. This behaviour was added in Patch 6 and prior to that, shoving allies required passing a skill check. | When targeting an ally, Shove does not require a skill check and will always succeed, provided all other prerequisites for a successful shove are met.
