Exploring the vast world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 on foot is simply impractical, especially with the many horse-related activities available. This guide shows you how to acquire the best steed in the game.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: The Best Horse
Pebbles is the top choice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, but unlocking her full potential requires the "Good Old Pebbles" perk. While other horses boast slightly superior stats, Pebbles offers the best combination of performance, acquisition cost, and ease of obtaining.
With the perk activated, Pebbles boasts impressive stats:
- Stamina: 217
- Capacity: 353
- Speed: 53
- Courage: 12
How to Get Pebbles
Acquiring Pebbles is surprisingly easy, even early in the game. Visit the horse trader in Semine. A high Speech skill allows you to obtain Pebbles for free; otherwise, a small fee is required.
To maximize Pebbles' potential, ride her approximately 35 km to unlock the "Good Old Pebbles" perk. This significantly boosts her stats, making her a top contender. The cost-effectiveness and ease of acquisition make her superior to other options despite minor stat differences.
Other Horse Options in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
If you're still curious about other mounts, consider these alternatives:
- Herring (Trosky Castle): Obtained for free after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls," Herring lags slightly behind Pebbles in capacity and speed. A perk unlock is also needed to reach its full potential.
- Kincsern (Kuttenberg): Boasting the highest stamina (235) and speed (60), Kincsern comes with a hefty price tag of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg): Another strong all-arounder, exceeding Pebbles in speed and courage, but costs a staggering 7,560 groschen.
The significant price difference for minimal stat improvements makes Pebbles the most practical and valuable choice.
Conclusion
Pebbles is the best horse in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
