Pebbles vs. Herring: Best Choice in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 News - Latest Updates and Information

In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, choosing the right horse is crucial for Henry's journey. You'll have the option to select between two horses: Pebbles and Herring. Let's dive into the details to help you make the best 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 at 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 steed and has been his companion, much like Mutt, who you can also find through side quests.

How To Receive Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

After completing the quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls," you can choose to take Herring as your new horse. If you haven't acquired Pebbles or another horse by this point, Herring becomes your steed, courtesy of Otto von Bergow. If you already have a horse and decide against Herring, you can sell him to nomad traders through Kabat for 300 Groschen.

At first glance, Herring might seem like the better choice due to his higher base stats. However, this can be misleading. Each horse unlocks a perk after being ridden for a specific distance, which boosts its stats. This means that horses with initially better stats don't necessarily remain superior throughout the game.

Pebbles, despite not having the highest stats even after her boost, emerges as the best choice. You can acquire her for a lower price than many other horses, and her perk is unlocked after riding just 35 kilometers, compared to Herring's 50 kilometers. Pebbles' boosted stats are as follows:

217 stamina
353 capacity
53 speed
12 courage

Pebbles is not only reliable but also a great bargain. You can unlock her for free, and her sentimental value, having been with Henry before the game's events, adds to her appeal. With the extensive traveling required in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Pebbles proves to be the perfect steed for Henry.

When deciding between Pebbles and Herring, Pebbles is the clear winner. She's a trusted companion that you can rely on throughout your journey.

*Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.*
