Unlocking the Best Steed in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: A Guide to Acquiring Pebbles
Exploring the vast open world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is far easier on horseback. While several mounts are available, Pebbles emerges as the optimal choice due to its accessibility and overall performance. This guide details how to obtain and maximize Pebbles' potential.
Why Pebbles Reigns Supreme
While other horses boast marginally superior stats, Pebbles offers the best balance of cost-effectiveness and ease of acquisition. Its true power is unlocked through the "Good Old Pebbles" perk.
Acquiring Pebbles
Locate the horse trader in Semine. A high Speech skill allows you to obtain Pebbles for free; otherwise, a modest fee is required.
Crucially, ride Pebbles for approximately 35 kilometers to unlock the "Good Old Pebbles" perk. This significantly boosts its stats:
- Stamina: 217
- Capacity: 353
- Speed: 53
- Courage: 12
These enhanced stats place Pebbles among the game's top horses. The cost and difficulty of acquiring horses with only slightly better stats make Pebbles the most practical choice.
Alternative Mounts
For players seeking alternatives, consider these options:
- Herring (Trosky Castle): Obtained after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls," Herring is free but lags behind Pebbles in capacity and speed. A perk is needed to unlock its full potential.
- Kincsern (Kuttenberg): Boasting the highest stamina (235) and speed (60), Kincsern commands a hefty price of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg): A well-rounded horse surpassing Pebbles in speed and courage, but its 7,560 groschen price tag makes it less attractive.
The significant price difference for minimal stat improvements solidifies Pebbles' position as the most efficient and valuable mount.
