Tips and Tricks for Throwing Rocks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Mastering the art of rock throwing can give you a significant advantage in stealth scenarios. Here are some essential tips and tricks:

• Unlimited Rocks: One of the best aspects of this mechanic is that rocks are unlimited. You don't need to worry about retrieving missed throws.
• Noise Radius: Keep in mind that the pebbles create a relatively small noise radius. Ensure your target is close to where you aim the rock. If you hit objects like cups or plates, the sound will be sharper and more likely to attract attention.
• Distraction and Attack: Successfully thrown rocks can lure enemies to investigate the sound. This gives you the opportunity to either take them down stealthily or slip past them unnoticed. However, be cautious; hitting an enemy directly with a rock will instantly alert them, causing a commotion.
• Bird Nests: Rocks can also be used to knock down bird nests scattered across the map. These nests often contain valuable items like eggs, which can provide a small boost to your nourishment, or even dice badges if you're lucky.
