While it might not be as thrilling as direct combat, *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* offers a robust stealth system that allows players to navigate around enemies discreetly. A key component of this system is the ability to throw rocks, which can be a game-changer in your stealth strategy. Here's how you can master this skill.
How to Throw Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
It's crucial to understand that you can only throw rocks while in stealth mode. To enter stealth, press the right stick on your controller or the 'C' key on your PC. Once in stealth, the method to throw a rock varies based on your platform:
- PlayStation: Press and hold R1
- Xbox: Press and hold RB
- PC: Press and hold G
As you hold the button, you'll see Henry's right hand clutching a pebble on the screen, accompanied by a crosshair that helps you aim. Once you've targeted your desired location, release the button to throw the rock.

Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
One of the greatest advantages of rock throwing in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is that rocks are unlimited. You won't need to worry about picking up your missed throws, allowing you to focus on your strategy.
Keep in mind that Henry throws small pebbles, which produce a limited noise radius. To maximize effectiveness, ensure your target is close to where you aim. If your rock hits items like cups or plates, it will create a sharper, more noticeable sound.

When executed correctly, enemies will be drawn to the noise, giving you a chance to either take them down quietly or continue your stealthy path. Be cautious, though; hitting an enemy directly with a rock will immediately cause a disturbance.
Additionally, rocks can be used to knock down bird nests scattered across the game's map. These nests often contain valuable items such as eggs, which offer minor nourishment, or even rare dice badges.
