Should You Use Pebbles or Herring in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2?

Author : Patrick Mar 15,2025

You, as Henry, face a crucial decision in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: choosing your trusty steed from two contenders, Pebbles and Herring. The prologue cruelly strips you of your original horse, leaving you to rebuild your stable. So, which horse reigns supreme?

Finding Pebbles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Your reunion with Pebbles occurs at the Semine estate, before Lord Semine and Agnes's wedding. She resides in the stables, but requires purchase to become your riding companion during the "The Jaunt" quest with Jan Semine. Pebbles holds a special place, having been Henry's loyal companion akin to Mutt (found through side quests).

Obtaining Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Herring becomes available after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls." If you haven't acquired another horse, Otto von Bergow gifts you Herring. Alternatively, if you already own a horse and prefer not to take Herring, you can sell him to nomad traders through Kabat for 300 Groschen.

While Herring initially boasts superior base stats, this is deceptive. Each horse unlocks a perk boosting its stats after a certain riding distance. This perk significantly alters the equation.

Pebbles emerges as the superior choice. Despite not possessing the highest stats even after the perk boost, her lower acquisition cost and quicker perk unlock (35 kilometers versus Herring's 50 kilometers) make her a remarkable bargain. Her boosted stats are impressive: 217 stamina, 353 capacity, 53 speed, and 12 courage. Furthermore, the sentimental value of her pre-game companionship with Henry adds to her appeal.

For extensive travel in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, a reliable steed is essential. Pebbles's combination of affordability, relatively high stats, and sentimental value makes her the ideal choice for Henry's journey.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
