Kill Effects in Fur Infection Outbreak

Every cosmetic kill effect, its price, and how the shop actually works.

Kill Effects Guide

Kill effects are the cosmetic finishers you see when you land a final blow in Fur Infection Outbreak. HopeStar Studio added the kill effect shop during the v1.48 patch cycle alongside the vest shops and the new cave style. The video on this page is Bom Only’s All Kill Effects [Part 2] walkthrough, which catalogues Pipe, Piano, Midas, Car, and their prices. Use it as a visual catalogue; specific room spawns and Overhaul placement shifts belong to whatever HopeStar ships next. This page is only place 120550559221143.

If you landed here looking for a damage buff, close this page. Kill effects are cosmetics. They do not change damage, swing speed, or grab mechanics. If you want the grab, go to How to Infect (/guides/how-to-infect/). If you want a weapon, go to Weapons (/guides/weapons/).

What kill effects actually are

A kill effect is the cosmetic animation that plays when you score the final hit on a Human or Transfur. Pipe, Piano, Midas, and Car are the named effects shown in Bom Only’s Part 2 catalogue. Each has a price in Furcoins — the in-game currency tracked on the Furcoins guide (/codes/furcoins/). They are a status display, not a stat boost. A player who owns Midas does not hit harder; they look different when they finish someone.

Community notes describe the kill effect shop as sitting inside the Infected safe area, not in Human spawn. The video timestamps confirm this placement. If the shop moved after Overhaul, believe the live floor.

Effect list and prices

The Part 2 video timestamps every effect shown. Community comments and the recap chapters agree on this approximate catalogue:

Pipe — Metal pipe strike animation — confirm in live shop Piano — Falling piano on the target — confirm in live shop Midas — Golden touch / Midas gold finish — confirm in live shop Car — Vehicle impact animation — confirm in live shop

Prices shift with HopeStar’s shop rotation. The numbers above are from the Part 2 community notes; do not treat them as a permanent price sheet. Check the live shop before you farm Furcoins for a specific effect.

How to buy a kill effect

  1. Earn Furcoins from infection kills, melee finishes, or ore and fishing side loops.
  2. Find the kill effect shop inside the Infected safe area (purple-side spawn).
  3. Browse the effect catalogue. Prices are in Furcoins.
  4. Select the effect you want. It activates on your next final blow.
  5. Switch back to Human if you bought it while Infected; effects apply to both factions.

The shop is cosmetic only. A purchased effect does not unlock a new animation if you do not already own it. Unlocking Pipe does not give you Midas.

What kill effects are NOT

They do not add damage or swing speed. They do not affect the grab or infection chain. They do not stack across purchases. They do not transfer between accounts. They are not a farm tool. Farming Furcoins for an effect while ignoring the grab loop is a poor trade.

If you are Infected and want to look threatening, learn the grab first. A Midas finish on a victim you dragged to latex is stylish. A Midas finish you earned by ignoring the grab is just a confusing final hit for everyone watching.

Relationship to other systems

Kill effects sit in the same cosmetic category as titles (capped around 5,000 infections per community notes), kill effect drops from the v1.48 shop, and the seasonal morphs from Easter and summer events. They do not replace any of those. A clean infection chain with Pipe active is the same chain as one without it.

There are still no confirmed active promo codes as of September 2026. A code, if one ever ships, would most likely drop Furcoins or a title — not a kill effect. Watch the Codes Hub (/codes/) and the How to Redeem (/codes/how-to-redeem/) steps if the UI ever appears.

Buy the effect you want to see. Do not farm it at the cost of the grab.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Humans, Transfurs, and anyone hunting Furcoins.

Do kill effects give a damage bonus?

No. Kill effects are pure cosmetics. They change the visual of a final blow, not the damage, swing speed, or grab mechanics.

Where is the kill effect shop?

Community reports place it inside the Infected safe area (purple-side spawn), not in Human spawn. Overhaul may have moved it.

What effects are in the catalogue?

Pipe, Piano, Midas, and Car appear in Bom Only's Part 2 catalogue. Check the live shop for the current rotation and prices.

Can I use kill effects as a Human?

Yes. Once purchased, effects apply to final blows on both factions. Buy them Infected if that is where you farm coins fastest.

Will a promo code give me a kill effect?

Unlikely. Codes most likely drop Furcoins or titles. The Codes Hub (/codes/) is empty as of September 2026.

Should I farm Furcoins for a kill effect or for a weapon?

Weapons first. A shop blade changes your combat output. A kill effect changes what the final frame looks like. Farm coins for weapons you will swing before you farm for cosmetics.
