Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Mastering the art of rock throwing can give you a significant advantage. Here are some tips to maximize its effectiveness:

  • Unlimited Rocks: One of the best aspects of rock throwing is that you have an endless supply. No need to worry about running out or retrieving missed throws.
  • Noise Radius: Remember, the pebbles make a relatively quiet sound. To effectively distract enemies, aim close to your target. Hitting objects like cups or plates can create a sharper noise, drawing more attention.
  • Distraction and Action: Successfully thrown rocks can lead enemies to investigate, giving you a chance to either silently take them down or move past them unnoticed. Be cautious, though; hitting an enemy directly with a rock will cause an immediate alert.
  • Bird Nests: Rocks aren't just for distraction. Use them to knock down bird nests scattered across the landscape. These nests can contain useful items like eggs for nourishment or even dice badges, adding a fun element of exploration to your stealth missions.
