In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the expansive open world beckons for exploration, and what better way to traverse it than on horseback? Here's your guide to securing the best horse in the game.
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Best Horse
The standout horse in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is none other than Pebbles. To harness the full potential of Pebbles, you must first unlock the Good Old Pebbles perk. While other horses might boast slightly superior stats, Pebbles offers an unbeatable combination of performance and affordability.
Once you unlock the perk, Pebbles will showcase impressive stats including:
- Stamina: 217
- Capacity: 353
- Speed: 53
- Courage: 12
How to Get Pebbles
You can obtain Pebbles early in the game by visiting the horse trader in Semine. If your Speech skill is sufficiently high, you can persuade the trader to give you Pebbles for free. Otherwise, a small fee will be required.
To unlock the Good Old Pebbles perk, you need to ride Pebbles for approximately 35 km. Once the perk is unlocked, Pebbles' stats will significantly improve, placing it among the top horses in the game. Given the cost and difficulty of obtaining other high-stat horses, Pebbles remains the most practical and efficient choice.
Other Horse Options in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
If you're interested in exploring other horse options, consider the following:
- Herring (available at Trosky Castle after completing For Whom the Bell Tolls) - Offers good stats but requires a perk to reach its full potential.
- Kincsern (found in Kuttenberg) - Boasts the highest stamina and speed at 235 and 60, respectively, but comes with a hefty price tag of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (also in Kuttenberg) - An excellent all-rounder, surpassing Pebbles in speed and courage, yet priced at a steep 7,560 groschen.
Despite the slight stat advantages of these other horses, their high costs and the effort required to obtain them make Pebbles the best overall choice in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
