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

The beauty of throwing rocks in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* lies in their unlimited supply, meaning you won’t need to chase after your missed throws. However, since Henry uses small pebbles, their noise radius is limited. It’s essential to aim close to your target for the distraction to work effectively. If you manage to hit objects like cups or plates, the noise will be more pronounced, drawing more attention.

When executed correctly, enemies will be drawn to investigate the sound, giving you a window to either take them down silently or slip away unnoticed. Be cautious, though; directly hitting an enemy with a rock will immediately alert them and cause a commotion.

Rocks also serve another purpose: knocking down bird nests, which are plentiful across the game's map. These nests can yield valuable items like eggs, offering minor nourishment, or even dice badges if fortune favors you.
