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.
How To Find Pebbles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Pebbles awaits you at the Semine estate, before the wedding of Lord Semine and Agnes. She's in the stables, but requires a purchase to become your riding companion for the "The Jaunt" quest with Jan Semine. Consider her a loyal friend, much like Mutt, another companion found through side quests.
How To Acquire Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Herring becomes available after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls." If you haven't acquired another horse, Otto von Bergow gifts him to you. Otherwise, you can sell Herring to Kabat for 300 Groschen.
Pebbles or Herring: The Ultimate Choice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Pebbles ultimately emerges as the best option. While not possessing the highest boosted stats, her lower purchase price and faster perk unlock (after 35 kilometers versus Herring's 50) make her a great value. Her boosted stats are: 217 Stamina, 353 Capacity, 53 Speed, and 12 Courage. Furthermore, her pre-game history with Henry adds sentimental value.
For extensive travel, a reliable steed is essential. Pebbles' combination of affordability, early availability, and decent boosted stats makes her the ideal choice for Henry.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
