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

While direct combat has its thrills, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 offers a compelling stealth system, with rock throwing as a key tactic. This guide details how to effectively utilize this skill.

Note: Rock throwing is exclusively available while in stealth mode. Activate stealth by pressing the right stick (controllers) or the C key (PC).

To throw a rock:

  • PlayStation: Press and hold R1.
  • Xbox: Press and hold RB.
  • PC: Press and hold G.

Upon holding the designated button, a crosshair will appear, indicating the rock's trajectory. Release the button to throw.

Strategic Rock Throwing Tips:

  • Unlimited Ammunition: You have an endless supply of pebbles, so don't worry about conserving them.
  • Noise Radius: The sound radius 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, creating opportunities for stealth takedowns or evasion. However, a direct hit on an enemy will instantly alert them.
  • Bird Nests: Locate and target bird nests scattered across the game world for potential rewards such as eggs (providing nourishment) or even valuable dice badges.
