Mastering Stealth in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: The Art of Rock Throwing
While direct combat has its thrills, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's stealth mechanics offer a compelling alternative. A key element of successful stealth is the ability to distract enemies by throwing rocks. Here's how to effectively utilize this tactic.
Throwing Rocks: A Step-by-Step Guide
Remember, rock throwing is exclusively a stealth action. Enter stealth mode by clicking the right stick (controllers) or pressing C (PC). Once in stealth, hold the designated button to initiate a throw:
- PlayStation: R1
- Xbox: RB
- PC: G
Henry's hand will appear on screen, holding a pebble. A crosshair indicates your throw's trajectory. Release the button to launch the rock.
Pro Tips for Rock Throwing Success
- Unlimited Ammunition: Don't worry about running out of rocks; your supply is limitless.
- Noise Radius: The sound of a thrown pebble has a limited range. Aim for targets close to your position. Hitting objects like cups or plates creates a more noticeable sound.
- Distraction and Opportunity: A well-placed rock will draw enemies' attention, allowing you to approach them undetected or simply observe their reactions. However, hitting an enemy directly will immediately alert them.
- Bird Nests: A Hidden Reward: Explore the game world to locate bird nests. Successfully hitting them can yield valuable items such as eggs (providing a small health boost) or even rare dice badges.
