Default play: gridless.Nothing stops a grappled creature from shoving.' Grappled' zeroes out your speed, and that's it. (PHB p.290, 'Appendix A: Conditions')However, this may not break the grapple.As you've quoted, the effect ends if the grappler's reach is exceeded. On a successful shove you can either knock your target prone or push them 5' away (PHB pp.195-196, 'Shoving a Creature').Knocking the grappler prone doesn't-by itself-move you out of the grappler's reach.Shoving the grappler 5' is.

Throw it at someone that has 'Fleshwound' and is about to die (you can tell by the whining/whimpering and possibly a lost limb). When Fleshwound is active, even 1 damage will kill them. Hence, ending them rightly.

Uncertain. If you contend (as I would) that while grappled there is a functional distance of 0', then shoving 5' extends the distance to 5' and doesn't exceed the grappler's reach: grapple not broken. See also. If you contend (as at least one or two others do) that there's no room in D&D for 0' separation, then a 5' shove would exceed the grappler's reach: grapple broken. Factors in favor of this interpretation: 'whether a creature is a friend or an enemy you can't willingly end your move in its space' (PHB p.XX) plus the notion that one's 'space' in gridless-world is larger than one's physical extent.The one definite case I can think of (just for fun):. You have the Charger feat. On your turn you Dash at least 10' into the 5' reach of an opponent.

Who had previously Readied a Grapple. Your GM rules that the Grapple (attempt) fires off before you can take your bonus-action Shove (from Charger). The grapple against you is successful.

You're grappled. Now you get your shove, which is successful. Your grappler is shoved 10' away (per Charger), breaking the grapple.Summary: this sounds like an excellent space for a ruling, leading to a house rule.Variant play: grid.Nothing stops a grappled creature from shoving.same as aboveThis will break the grapple of a 5' reach.In grid-world even when grappled creatures are at a 5' 'distance' because, as @daze413 rightly points out, grappling doesn't move one into the same square.The shove then moves the grappler 5' farther away, exceeding a 5' reach. So: yes, in grid-world the equation is grappled + 5' shove = 10' separation.

Yes, you can generally shove your way out of a grappleIf a grappler can't reach their target, the grapple ends. If you shove someone 5' away, they won't be able to reach you anymore and the grapple will end. However, if their reach is larger than 5' they may be able to maintain the grapple on you (e.g. Larger creatures).I'm not aware of any rules RAW that would cause being prone to break a grapple. In fact, you might want to shove someone you've grappled prone so that he can't get up. This is more powerful for the grappler than the grapplee, since the grapplee has 0 movement and can't get up, but either character can do it. $begingroup$ @KorvinStarmast given that shoving is an Athletics check contested by the grappler's Acrobatics/Athletics, there isn't much difference mechanically between the normal way to break the grapple and this.

While shoving is less effective than attempting to escape (as you are forced to use Athletics instead of Acrobatics/Athletics, and the grappler gets to choose between Acrobatics/Athletics instead of being forced to use Athletics), it has the large advantage that it can be used in place of an attack - so it's a lot stronger for classes with the Extra Attack feature. $endgroup$–May 13 '16 at 15:38. Opposed Strength/Dexterity Checks: does a Shove give you two for one?From a game mechanics perspective, the question asks whether a creature can get a 'two for one' outcome from the same opposed Strength/Dexterity check (a single die roll): does that one roll both accomplish the Shove and Escape from the Grapple action? This might run afoul of the action economy (which is slightly skewed in favor of the grappler).The RulesThe Grapple and the Shove are both considered a special melee attack, a subset of the Attack Action. Escaping a Grapple requires an action. (Basic Rules p.

Taking an action replaces using the attack action in most cases. Shove, Grapple, and Escape Grapple are opposed Strength/Dexterity checks.The Rules Problem.The rules on Grappling and Escaping Grapples were not written symmetrically. Grapple is a special attack action, but breaking a grapple is not a special attack action, it is an action. (Note: a ruling could be to make the escape a special attack action as well, but that may not resolve the other issues involved).Opposed Strength/Dexterity Check 1: Escape Grapple. (Basic Rules p. 74)A grappled creature can use its action to escape. To do so, it must succeed on a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check contested by your Strength (Athletics) check.Opposed Strength/Dextrity Check 2: Shove (Basic Rules p.

74)Using the Attack action, you can make a special melee attack to shove a creature, either to knock it prone or push it away from you. If you’re able to make multiple attacks with the Attack action, this attack replaces one of them. The target must be no more than one size larger than you and must be within your reach. Instead of making an attack roll, you make a Strength (Athletics) check contested by the target’s Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check (the target chooses the ability to use). If you win the contest, you either knock the target prone or push it 5 feet away from you.Shoving a Creature.Ruling RequiredIf the distance between combatants is assumed to be some number greater than zero, then adding 5' to that makes the distance greater than 5' and the conditions for breaking the Grapple have been met for creatures with a reach of 5' or less. $begingroup$ Welcome to the site.

Can you expand upon this answer a bit more please? Explain why you think the rules work that way and what lead you to this conclusion? We're a Q&A site that works a bit differently to discussion forums in that we only try to provide quality, expert answers. Whilst this is an answer to the question and not an attempt at discussion (well done), it could be greatly improved if you provided something to help back it up. Thanks for participating, and have fun.
