# 💥 Kill Effects

## Kill Effects

Kill Effects play a visual effect at the victim's location whenever a player gets a kill. Players pick their own effect from a menu, and it triggers automatically on every kill until they change it.

## Selecting an Effect

Run `/duelkilleffects` to open the selection menu, or `/duelkilleffects select <id>` to pick one directly by its ID. Only effects the player has permission for are shown or selectable.

## Permissions

Each kill effect has its own permission, so you can gate specific effects behind ranks or as store rewards. The node is built from the effect's ID:

```
phoenixplugins.killeffect.<id>
```

For example, Bell Toll of Doom is phoenixplugins.killeffect.bell-toll-of-doom.

None is always available and needs no permission, so a player can always turn their effect off.

Every effect is visual only. None of them deal damage, set fires, or change blocks, so they are safe to hand out on any server.
