Best Horse in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: How to Acquire

In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the vast open world beckons you to explore and engage in various horse-related activities, making it impractical to traverse the landscape on foot. Here’s your guide to acquiring the best horse in the game.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Best Horse

The crown jewel among horses in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is none other than Pebbles. To harness the full potential of Pebbles, you'll need to unlock the Good Old Pebbles perk.

While there are other horses in the game with marginally superior stats, Pebbles stands out due to its affordability and ease of acquisition. Once the perk is activated, 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 sufficiently high, you can persuade the trader to give you Pebbles for free. Otherwise, you'll need to pay a nominal fee.

To unlock the full potential of Pebbles, you must ride approximately 35 km with the horse. This journey will make the Good Old Pebbles perk available, significantly boosting Pebbles' stats and placing it near the top tier of horses in the game. Considering the cost and difficulty of obtaining other horses, Pebbles becomes an unbeatable choice due to its cost-effectiveness and performance.

Other Horse Options in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

If you're curious about other horse options, consider these alternatives:

• 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. A perk is needed to unlock its full potential.
• Kincsern (Kuttenberg) - Boasts the highest stamina (235) and speed (60) but comes with a hefty price tag of 5,260 groschen.
• Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg) - An excellent all-rounder surpassing Pebbles in speed and courage, yet priced at an exorbitant 7,560 groschen.

These options, while boasting slightly better stats in some areas, come at a high cost and may not justify the investment given the marginal improvements they offer over Pebbles.
