Mastering Mounts in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: A Guide to Acquiring a Steed
The vast world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 can feel overwhelming initially. Efficient traversal is key, and that means getting a horse. This guide details two methods: reclaiming your original horse, Pebbles, or acquiring one through less conventional means.
Reclaiming Pebbles
Yes, you can reunite with your starting horse! Travel to Semine in the southern region and locate the horse trader. However, regaining Pebbles isn't straightforward. You'll need to either pay him Groschen, or employ persuasion/intimidation skills. In one playthrough, dressing Henry in finer attire (obtained through the main questline and interacting with Radovan) facilitated a free return, though it impacted reputation. If persuasion fails, prepare to pay.
Stealing a Horse
Alternatively, you can acquire a horse through less legal means. Wild horses are rare; your best bet is farms or stables. This involves theft and the risk of capture.
A good location is Vidlak Pond in the west. A farmhouse belonging to fishermen harbors two horses. Simply mount one and ride away.
To properly saddle and tame your newly acquired steed, visit the horse trainer at the Nomads' Camp, east of Vidlak Pond. A fee is required for their services, but riding the horse unsaddled is also an option.
This concludes our guide on obtaining a horse in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more game tips and strategies, check out The Escapist.
