Mastering Stealth in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: The Art of Rock Throwing

While direct combat has its thrills, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's stealth mechanics offer a compelling alternative. A key element of successful stealth is the strategic use of rock throwing. This guide details how to effectively utilize this skill.

How to Throw Rocks

Remember: Rock throwing is exclusively a stealth action. Initiate stealth mode by pressing the right stick (controllers) or C (PC). Then, hold the designated button to initiate a throw:

  • PlayStation: R1
  • Xbox: RB
  • PC: G

Upon holding the button, a crosshair will appear, guiding your throw. Release the button to launch the rock.

Tips and Tricks for Effective Rock Throwing

  • Unlimited Ammunition: You have an unlimited supply of pebbles, so don't hesitate to experiment!
  • Noise Radius: The sound radius of a thrown pebble is relatively small, so ensure your target is within close proximity. Hitting objects like cups or plates will create a louder disturbance.
  • Distraction and Opportunity: Successfully thrown rocks will draw enemies' attention, giving you a chance to either eliminate them stealthily or simply evade detection. However, directly hitting an enemy will immediately alert them.
  • Bird Nests: Rocks are also useful for knocking down bird nests scattered throughout the game world. These nests often contain valuable items such as eggs (providing a small nutritional boost) or even rare dice badges.
