PvP Kill Feed
A lightweight, PvP-only kill feed for Valheim.
When a player kills another player, everyone sees a short line at the top of the HUD:
Killer ⚔ Victim
No PvE. No death history. No extra world data. Built for busy dedicated servers.
Features
- Player vs player only — falls, trees, mobs, and bosses never touch the network
- Crossed-swords icon with a faded bar behind each line
- Guilds colors — if Guilds is installed, names use that guild’s color picker RGB. Otherwise names stay white
- Tiny live RPC — names + colors, then gone. Join 5 seconds late and you will not see it
- Local HUD — size, position, and font are yours. The server does not overwrite them
- Optional hide —
/disablekillfeedhides the UI on your screen only. Your kills still show for everyone else
Screenshots
Without Guilds — names render white.
With Guilds — names use each guild’s color.
Requirements
Valheim 1.0.16.
| Mod | Required |
|---|---|
| BepInExPack | Yes — 5.4.2351 |
| Jötunn | Yes — 2.30.2 |
| Guilds (Smoothbrain) | Optional — Guilds colored names when present |
Install on the dedicated server and every client. The server routes kills and does not draw the feed.
Installation

PvPKillFeed.dllinBepInEx/plugins/ - Install Jötunn as well (and Guilds if you want faction colors)
- Launch once to create
BepInEx/config/com.rdmods.pvpkillfeed.cfg - Edit the HUD on your machine. Other players keep their own layout
Chat commands
Local to you. Session only. Rejoining the server turns the feed back on.
| Command | Effect |
|---|---|
/disablekillfeed |
Hide the feed on this client |
/enablekillfeed |

These do not stop kills from broadcasting.

Notes
- Killer on Feed is the player hit that dropped the victim to 0 HP.
/disablekillfeedis never saved; it is not a config flag. Its only single session command.
Known Issue:
- PvP kills resulting from status effects will not generate a kill feed broadcast. For example, if an opponent dies from a lingering poison tick rather than the direct impact of your weapon, that kill is not broadcasted on feed. Unfortunately, this cannot be fixed; Valheim's base engine treats all status effects as neutral damage sources and does not track which specific player applied them.
