The Best Horse: Pebbles
Pebbles emerges as the superior choice, primarily due to accessibility and cost-effectiveness. While other horses possess marginally better base stats, the cost and effort to obtain them far outweigh the minimal stat advantages. Unlocking the "Good Old Pebbles" perk significantly boosts Pebbles' attributes, making it a top contender. With the perk active, Pebbles boasts:
- Stamina: 217
- Capacity: 353
- Speed: 53
- Courage: 12
Acquiring Pebbles
Pebbles is surprisingly easy to obtain early in the game. Visit the horse trader in Semine. A high Speech skill allows you to acquire Pebbles for free; otherwise, a modest fee is required.
To fully realize Pebbles' potential, ride approximately 35 kilometers. This unlocks the "Good Old Pebbles" perk, substantially improving its stats. After unlocking the perk, the slight stat advantages of other horses become insignificant compared to the considerable cost and difficulty of acquiring them.
Alternative Mounts
For those seeking alternative options, consider these mounts:
- Herring (Trosky Castle): Obtained for free after completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls," Herring lags slightly behind Pebbles in capacity and speed. A perk is needed to maximize its potential.
- Kincsern (Kuttenberg): Boasting the highest stamina (235) and speed (60), Kincsern comes with a hefty price tag of 5,260 groschen.
- Pisek Lad (Kuttenberg): A strong all-arounder, surpassing Pebbles in speed and courage, but at a steep cost of 7,560 groschen.
The significant price difference for minor stat improvements solidifies Pebbles as the most practical and efficient choice.
