Remember, you can only throw rocks while in stealth mode. To enter stealth, click the right stick on your controller or press C on your PC. Once in stealth, hold the following button to prepare to throw a rock, depending on your platform:

  • PlayStation: R1
  • Xbox: RB

Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

The beauty of rock throwing in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is that rocks are unlimited, so you don't need to worry about running out or retrieving them. However, since Henry throws small pebbles, the noise they make is quite subtle. Ensure your target is close to where you aim, as the noise radius is limited. If you hit objects like cups or plates, the sound will be sharper and more likely to attract attention.

If executed correctly, enemies will wander over, giving you the chance to either take them down stealthily or leave them be. Be cautious, though; hitting an enemy directly with a rock will immediately cause a commotion.

Rocks can also be used to knock down bird nests, which are scattered throughout the game's world. These nests can contain valuable items like eggs, which offer a small nutritional boost, or even dice badges if you're fortunate.

That's all you need to know about throwing rocks in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more tips and guides, The Escapist has plenty of resources, including how to get the best horse or how to sell stolen items, to help you on your journey.
