Best Horse in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: Acquisition Guide
*Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* offers a vast open world ripe for exploration, making it essential to have a reliable horse to traverse its landscapes efficiently. Forget about wandering on foot—here's how to secure the best horse in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Best Horse
In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Pebbles stands out as the top horse you can acquire, but you'll need to unlock the Good Old Pebbles perk to maximize its potential. While there are horses with slightly superior stats, Pebbles offers the best balance of performance and accessibility.
Once you've unlocked the perk, Pebbles boasts impressive stats:
- Stamina: 217
- Capacity: 353
- Speed: 53
- Courage: 12
How to Get Pebbles
You can acquire Pebbles early in the game by heading to Semine and negotiating with the horse trader NPC. If your Speech skill is high enough, you can persuade the trader to give you Pebbles for free. Otherwise, you'll have to pay a modest fee.
To fully unlock Pebbles' potential, ride approximately 35 km with him. This will unlock the Good Old Pebbles perk, significantly boosting his stats. With these improvements, Pebbles ranks among the top horses in the game, making other options seem less worthwhile due to their high cost and difficulty to obtain.
Other Horse Options in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
If you're interested in exploring other horses, consider these options:
- Herring (Trosky Castle): Available for free after completing the quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls," though it lags slightly behind Pebbles in capacity and speed. Unlocking a perk is necessary to enhance Herring's stats.
- Kincsern (Kuttenberg): Boasts the highest stamina (235) and speed (60) in the game, but comes with a hefty price tag of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg): An excellent all-rounder with superior speed and courage compared to Pebbles, but priced at 7,560 groschen.
As you can see, these alternatives come with significant costs for marginal stat improvements, reaffirming Pebbles as the best choice in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
