In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, choosing the right horse is crucial for Henry's adventures. After losing his initial horse in the prologue, Henry faces a decision between two steeds: Pebbles and Herring. Here's a detailed look at both horses to help you make an informed choice.
How to Find Pebbles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
You'll reunite with Pebbles at the Semine estate before the wedding between Lord Semine and Agnes. She's waiting in the stables, but you'll need to purchase her to ride her during your quest with Jan Semine, known as "The Jaunt." Pebbles is not just any horse; she's Henry's trusted companion, much like Mutt, who you can find through side quests.
How to Receive Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
After completing the quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls," you have the option to take Herring as your new horse. If you haven't acquired another horse by this point, Herring becomes yours courtesy of Otto von Bergow. However, if you already have a horse and decide against Herring, you can sell him to nomad traders through Kabat for 300 Groschen.
Should You Choose Pebbles or Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?
Pebbles, despite not having the highest base stats, emerges as the superior choice. You can acquire her for a lower price compared to many other horses, and her stat boost is unlocked after riding just 35 kilometers, compared to Herring's 50 kilometers. Once boosted, Pebbles' stats are as follows:
- 217 stamina
- 353 capacity
- 53 speed
- 12 courage
Pebbles offers reliability and decent stats, making her a great bargain. Additionally, the sentimental value she holds, having been with Henry before the game's events, adds to her appeal. With the extensive travel Henry must undertake, a trustworthy steed like Pebbles is invaluable.
When deciding between Pebbles and Herring in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Pebbles stands out as the optimal choice for Henry. Her early availability, faster perk unlock, and the bond she shares with Henry make her the perfect companion for your journey.
