Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Stealth and strategy are key in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, and rock throwing can be a game-changer. One crucial tip is that rocks are unlimited, so you don't need to worry about collecting missed throws. However, keep in mind that the noise from the pebbles is subtle, with a small radius. Aim close to your target for the best effect. If you hit objects like cups or plates, the sound will be sharper, drawing more attention.

If executed successfully, your enemies will wander over, often voicing their confusion. This gives you the perfect opportunity to either take them down silently or move past them undetected. Be cautious, though—hitting enemies directly with rocks will immediately alert them, causing a commotion.
Rocks also serve another purpose: knocking down bird nests. Scattered throughout the game's world, these nests can yield valuable rewards such as eggs for nourishment or even dice badges if luck is on your side.
That’s everything you need to know about throwing rocks in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more guidance on your journey, The Escapist offers a wealth of information, including tips on acquiring the best horse or selling stolen goods, should your thieving endeavors continue.
