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 more efficient on horseback than on foot. This guide details how to obtain the best horse in the game: Pebbles.
Why Pebbles Reigns Supreme
While other horses boast slightly superior stats, Pebbles offers the best combination of performance and accessibility. Her true potential is unlocked via the "Good Old Pebbles" perk, significantly boosting her attributes.
Acquiring Pebbles
Pebbles is available early in the game. Visit the horse trader in Semine. A high Speech skill allows you to acquire her for free; otherwise, a modest fee is required.
To maximize Pebbles' capabilities, ride her approximately 35 kilometers to unlock the "Good Old Pebbles" perk. This unlocks her superior 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 obtaining horses with marginally better stats render them less practical.
Alternative Mounts
For players seeking alternatives, consider these options:
- Herring (Trosky Castle): A free horse obtained after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls." While good, it lags behind Pebbles in capacity and speed, and requires a perk to reach its full potential.
- Kincsern (Kuttenberg): Boasts the highest stamina (235) and speed (60) but commands a hefty price of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg): Another strong contender surpassing Pebbles in speed and courage, but its 7,560 groschen price tag makes it less worthwhile.
The significant price difference for minimal stat improvements solidifies Pebbles' position as the optimal choice.
