In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, your horse is more than just a mode of transport—it's a crucial ally for survival. Whether you're galloping into battle, evading the law, or hauling your latest loot, equipping your steed with the right gear can make all the difference. Here’s a comprehensive guide to the best horse gear in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.

Best Horse Saddles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Bravante Saddle – The Balanced Choice

The Bravante Saddle is the go-to for players who need a bit of everything. It boosts your carry capacity by +180, making it ideal for those who like to pack heavy without sacrificing too much speed. Sure, you’ll experience a -2 speed hit, but when you’re carrying what feels like half of Bohemia, a small slowdown is a fair trade-off.

Cracowian Saddle – The Pack Mule Special

For those who prioritize storage above all else, the Cracowian Saddle is your best bet. It offers a whopping +200 carry capacity, the highest in the game, albeit with a -2 speed penalty. If you're the type to loot everything that isn't bolted down, this saddle will be your trusty companion.

Dragon Saddle – Style and Storage

The Dragon Saddle matches the Cracowian in functionality, providing +200 carry capacity at a -2 speed cost. What sets it apart is its aesthetic appeal, featuring a decorative horn and stylish saddlebags. It's perfect for players who want their gear to be both functional and fashionable.

Best Bridles in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Bridle of the Holy Roman Empire

If long-distance travel is your game, the Bridle of the Holy Roman Empire is essential. It enhances your horse's stamina by +19 and speed by +3, making it ideal for those marathon rides between towns.

Sharukan Bridle

The Sharukan Bridle also boosts stamina, adding +17, but it comes with a -2 speed penalty. It’s a solid choice if stamina is your priority, but less ideal if you need to make a quick escape.

Best Horse Armor in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Warhorse Caparison – The Tank Build

For those charging headlong into combat, the Warhorse Caparison is the ultimate choice. It increases courage by +5, adds 50 extra carry weight, and provides robust armor (7/9/9 for stab/slash/blunt damage). The downside is a -12 stamina hit, so don't expect your horse to sprint for long, but it's a worthy trade-off for the protection it offers.

Executioner’s Caparison with Harness – Tough but Heavy

This gear turns your horse into a fortress on four legs, with +5 courage and strong armor (3/3/3 for all damage types). However, it reduces your carry capacity by 50, so if you're a habitual looter, you may need to reconsider your inventory strategy.

Quilted Caparison with Harness – The Balanced Option

The Quilted Caparison offers a balanced approach, adding +4 courage, 40 extra carry weight, and reasonable armor (4/6/6 for stab/slash/blunt damage). It won’t make your horse invincible, but it offers a good mix of protection and utility.

Best Horseshoes in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Knight’s Horseshoes – Best All-Rounder

The Knight’s Horseshoes are a versatile choice, increasing speed by +2 and offering light armor (1/3/1 for stab/slash/blunt). They're not revolutionary, but they provide a nice boost to both speed and hoof protection.

Farmer’s Horseshoes

If you're on a tight budget, the Farmer’s Horseshoes add +1 speed. They're a decent starter option, but if you can afford it, upgrading to the Knight’s Horseshoes will be well worth it for your horse's performance.

Nobleman’s Horseshoes

Rumored to exist, the Nobleman’s Horseshoes are said to give +3 speed, making them the fastest in the game. However, their stats remain unconfirmed. If you manage to get your hands on a set, you might just be the envy of all Bohemia—or the victim of a tall tale.

And that’s the rundown on the best horse gear in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Equip wisely and conquer the roads and battlefields of medieval Bohemia.
