In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the choice between Pebbles and Herring as your trusty steed is pivotal for your journey as Henry. After losing everything in the prologue, the bond you form with your horse is crucial. Let's delve into how to acquire these horses and why Pebbles emerges as the superior 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 isn't just any horse; she's Henry's trusted companion, akin to Mutt, who you can also find through side quests. This sentimental connection adds a layer of depth to your choice.

How To Receive Herring in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

After completing the quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls," you have the option 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. Should 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 the better option due to his higher base stats. However, this initial advantage is deceptive. Each horse unlocks a perk after being ridden a certain distance, which boosts its stats. This means that horses with initially higher stats don't necessarily remain superior throughout the game.

Pebbles, despite not having the highest stats even after her boost, becomes the best choice for several reasons. 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. Once boosted, Pebbles' stats are:

217 stamina
353 capacity
53 speed
12 courage

These stats, combined with her affordability and the speed at which you can unlock her perk, make Pebbles a reliable and cost-effective choice. Moreover, the sentimental value of having Pebbles, who has been with Henry since before the game's events, adds an emotional layer to your journey.

When deciding between Pebbles and Herring in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Pebbles is the clear winner. With extensive traveling ahead, you need a steed you can trust, and Pebbles fits the bill perfectly.

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