Should You Use Pebbles or Herring in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2?

Author : Anthony Mar 17,2025

You, as Henry, face a crucial decision in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: choosing your trusty steed from two contenders, Pebbles and Herring. The prologue cruelly strips you of your original horse, leaving you to rebuild your stable. So, which horse reigns supreme?

Finding Pebbles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Your reunion with Pebbles occurs at the Semine estate, before the wedding of Lord Semine and Agnes. She awaits in the stables, but requires purchase to become your ride during the “The Jaunt” quest with Jan Semine. Consider her a loyal companion, much like Mutt, found through other side quests. She's been with Henry before, making her more than just a horse; she's a familiar friend.

Acquiring Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Herring enters the picture after completing “For Whom the Bell Tolls.” He's offered as a replacement horse, provided you haven't already acquired Pebbles or another mount. If you already have a horse and prefer not to take Herring, you can sell him to nomad traders via Kabat for 300 Groschen.

Pebbles vs. Herring: The Ultimate Showdown

While Herring boasts initially higher base stats, this is deceptive. Each horse unlocks a perk boosting its stats after a certain riding distance. This perk significantly alters the final stats.

Pebbles emerges as the superior choice. Although not possessing the highest stats even after the boost, her lower purchase price and faster perk unlock (after 35 kilometers versus Herring's 50) make her a remarkable bargain. Her boosted stats are impressive: 217 stamina, 353 capacity, 53 speed, and 12 courage.

Ultimately, Pebbles offers reliability, decent stats, early acquisition, and a faster stat boost. Add to this the sentimental value of her prior companionship with Henry, and the choice becomes clear. For extensive travel, a trustworthy steed is paramount, and Pebbles perfectly fits the bill.

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