While it might not be as thrilling as direct combat against enemies, *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* offers a robust stealth system that allows players to sneak past foes. A crucial component of your stealth strategy is the ability to throw rocks, and here's how you can 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, hold the following button to prepare your rock throw:
- 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 show up, indicating where your rock will land. Aim carefully and release the button to throw the rock.

Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Stealth can be your greatest ally, and throwing rocks is a key part of that strategy. One of the best tips to remember is that rocks are unlimited, so you won't need to worry about collecting them after each throw.
Although Henry will be tossing small pebbles, the noise they make has a limited radius. Ensure your target is close to where you're aiming. If you hit objects like cups or plates, the sound will be sharper, drawing more attention.

If executed correctly, enemies will wander over to investigate the noise, giving you a chance to take them down stealthily or slip away unnoticed. Be cautious, though; hitting an enemy directly with a rock will immediately cause a commotion.
Rocks can also be used to knock down bird nests, which are scattered throughout the game world. These nests often contain valuable items like eggs, which offer a bit of nourishment, or even dice badges if you're fortunate.
And that’s everything you need to know about throwing rocks in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more tips and guides, The Escapist has plenty of resources to help you on your journey, including how to get the best horse or how to sell stolen items if you decide to continue your thieving ways.
