How to Get the Best Horse in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

Unlocking the Best Steed in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: A Guide to Acquiring Pebbles
Exploring the vast open world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is far easier on horseback. Walking everywhere is simply inefficient. This guide details how to obtain the game's best mount: Pebbles.
Why Pebbles Reigns Supreme
While other horses boast marginally superior stats, Pebbles offers the best combination of performance and accessibility. Unlocking the "Good Old Pebbles" perk significantly enhances her abilities, making her a top contender.
Pebbles' Enhanced Stats (with Perk):
- Stamina: 217
- Capacity: 353
- Speed: 53
- Courage: 12
Acquiring Pebbles:
Find Pebbles early in the game by visiting the horse trader in Semine. A high Speech skill allows you to acquire her for free; otherwise, a modest fee is required.
To maximize Pebbles' potential, ride her approximately 35 kilometers to unlock the "Good Old Pebbles" perk. This unlock significantly boosts her stats, making her a formidable mount. The cost-effectiveness and ease of acquisition make her the superior choice compared to other high-stat horses.
Alternative Mounts:
While Pebbles is recommended, alternative horses exist:
- Herring (Trosky Castle): Obtained for free after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls." While good, it lags behind Pebbles in capacity and speed and requires a perk unlock to reach its full potential.
- Kincsern (Kuttenberg): Boasts the highest stamina (235) and speed (60) but commands a hefty price of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg): Another strong contender, exceeding Pebbles in speed and courage, but its 7,560 groschen price tag makes it less practical.
The significant price difference for only minor stat increases makes Pebbles the most efficient and worthwhile choice.
