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 strategic use of rock throwing. Here's how to effectively utilize this tactic.
Throwing Rocks: A Step-by-Step Guide
Remember: Rock throwing is exclusively available while in stealth mode. Activate stealth by pressing the right stick on a controller or the C key on PC. Once in stealth, initiate a rock throw by holding the following button:
- PlayStation: R1
- Xbox: RB
- PC: G
Upon holding the button, Henry's hand will appear onscreen, pebble in hand. A crosshair will indicate the trajectory of your throw. 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. Ensure your target is within close proximity for optimal effect. However, hitting objects like cups or plates will create a significantly louder sound.
- Distraction and Opportunity: Successfully thrown rocks will draw enemies' attention, giving you the chance to either eliminate them stealthily or simply avoid confrontation. Be cautious, though – a direct hit on an enemy will immediately alert them.
- Bird Nests: A Hidden Reward: Utilize rocks to knock down bird nests scattered throughout the game world. These nests can contain valuable items such as eggs (providing a small health boost) or even rare dice badges.
