In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, choosing between Pebbles and Herring as your trusty steed is a significant decision. While Herring initially boasts superior base stats, this advantage is ultimately negated by the game's perk system.
Each horse receives a stat boost after being ridden a certain distance. Herring requires 50 kilometers, while Pebbles only needs 35. This means Pebbles' perk unlocks faster, making her the more practical choice in the long run. Although her boosted stats (217 stamina, 353 capacity, 53 speed, 12 courage) aren't the absolute highest in the game, they are excellent considering her low acquisition cost (potentially free!) and quicker perk unlock.
Furthermore, the sentimental value of reuniting with Pebbles, Henry's former companion, adds to her appeal. Considering the extensive travel in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, a reliable and readily available steed like Pebbles is invaluable. Therefore, Pebbles emerges as the superior choice for Henry's loyal companion.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
