Locating Pebbles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

You'll encounter Pebbles again at Semine estate before Lord Semine's wedding to Agnes. She awaits in the stables, though purchasing her unlocks access for "The Jaunt" quest with Jan Semine. As Henry's loyal companion alongside Mutt (available through side quests), Pebbles offers familiar reliability.

Acquiring Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Upon completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls," Otto von Bergow grants Herring if you lack another steed. Should you already own a horse, you can negotiate with Kabat to sell Herring to nomadic traders for 300 Groschen instead.

Pebbles vs Herring: Which Horse Should You Choose?

While Herring initially appears superior with higher base stats, this advantage proves temporary. Each horse unlocks a stat-boosting perk after traveling specific distances - Pebbles requires only 35 km versus Herring's 50 km, making her progression faster.

Though Pebbles doesn't achieve the highest possible stats, she delivers exceptional value. Affordable and quick to upgrade with boosted stats of:

217 stamina
353 capacity
53 speed
12 courage

Pebbles emerges as the optimal choice through her reliability, accessible pricing, and faster upgrade pace. Her sentimental connection to Henry's pre-game journey adds narrative weight beyond mere statistics.

When choosing your mount in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Pebbles proves the wiser investment. Her balanced capabilities and swift progression make her perfect for Henry's extensive travels.

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