While it might not be as thrilling as open combat against foes, *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* offers players a robust stealth system, allowing them to sneak around enemies effectively. One of the key components of this stealth system is the ability to throw rocks, and here's a detailed guide on how to master this technique.
How to Throw Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
It's essential to understand that 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, depending on your platform, press and hold the following button to prepare to throw a rock:
- PlayStation: R1
- Xbox: RB
- PC: G
As you hold the button, Henry's right hand will appear on the screen, ready with a pebble. A small crosshair will also appear, indicating where your rock will land. Aim carefully and release the button to throw the rock, creating a diversion to outsmart your enemies.

Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Mastering the art of rock throwing can significantly enhance your stealth gameplay. Here are some key tips and tricks to keep in mind:
- Rocks are unlimited, so you don't need to worry about running out or retrieving missed throws.
- Remember, Henry throws small pebbles, so the noise radius is limited. Ensure your target is close to where you're aiming for maximum effect.
- Hitting objects like cups or plates can create a sharper noise, attracting more attention.

When executed successfully, enemies will be drawn to the noise, giving you the opportunity to either take them down stealthily or continue your mission unnoticed. However, be cautious; hitting an enemy directly with a rock can instantly trigger a commotion.
Beyond enemy distraction, rocks can also be used to knock down bird nests scattered across the map. These nests often contain valuable items such as eggs, which offer a small nourishment boost, or even dice badges if you're fortunate.
