Understanding the Shop System
In Murder Duels, acquiring new items is a straightforward process that revolves around two main currencies: Coins and Robux. The primary method for obtaining weapons and accessories is through the Case system. Players do not typically buy weapons directly; instead, they purchase cases which contain a random item.
Video Highlights:
- Locate the Items and Shop tabs in the main menu.
- Understand the difference between buying cases directly and earning them.
- See the process of opening a case and receiving a "Hello Kitty knife ice cream cone".
- Learn about the cost of cases in Coins versus Robux.
Save your coins for higher-tier cases if you want the rarest weapons. While standard cases offer common items, premium cases often have a higher drop rate for unique skins.
Step-by-Step Purchase Guide
Follow these exact steps to start building your inventory in Murder Duels.
Enter the Lobby
Launch the game and wait for your character to spawn in the main lobby area. This is the central hub where all social and menu interactions take place.
Access the Shop
Look for the Shop tab on your screen. This can usually be found on the side of the UI or by interacting with a specific NPC marked with a shop icon.
Select Cases
Inside the shop menu, navigate to the Cases section. Here you will see a variety of crates available for purchase, ranging from common crates to special event cases.
Purchase Case
Select the case you want. Ensure you have enough Coins or Robux. Click the "Buy" button to confirm the transaction. The case will be added to your inventory.
Open Your Item
Exit the shop and go to the Items menu. Select your new case from the list and click "Open" to reveal your reward.
Opening cases is a game of chance. You are not guaranteed a specific weapon, so manage your coins wisely before spending them on multiple cases.
Case Types and Rewards
The shop offers different types of cases, each containing specific tiers of loot. Below is a comparison of the potential rewards you can expect.
| Case Type | Currency | Potential Rewards | Rarity Chance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Case | Coins | Basic Pistols, Standard Knives | High Common, Low Rare |
| Premium Case | Robux | Skinned Guns, Rare Melee | Low Common, High Rare |
| Event Case | Coins/Robux | Themed Items, Unique Skins | Varies by Event |
Common Item Drops:
- Combat Knife: A reliable melee weapon with balanced speed and damage.
- Pistol: A standard ranged sidearm for medium-distance engagements.
- SMG: High fire rate but lower accuracy, best for close range.
Rare Item Drops:
- Ice Cream Cone Knife: A unique melee skin (e.g., Hello Kitty style) that offers no stat advantage but high visual flair.
- Sniper Rifle: High damage, low fire rate, ideal for long-distance eliminations.
- Golden Gun: A premium pistol skin often found in higher-tier cases.
Some players spend over 600,000 Robux trying to collect every single item in the game. While not necessary for gameplay, collecting is a popular meta-game for dedicated fans.

Troubleshooting and FAQ
If you encounter issues purchasing or opening items, refer to the table below.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Shop is Empty | Slow internet connection or lag | Rejoin the server or reset your character. |
| Can't Buy Case | Insufficient Funds | Check your Coin/Robux balance at the top right of the screen. |
| Item Not Equipping | Inventory Glitch | Unequip your current weapon manually before equipping the new one. |
| Case Vanished | Already Opened | Check your inventory under the "Weapons" tab; the item is auto-sorted there. |
Once you open a case, the item is permanently yours. Even if you trade it or sell it (if the feature allows), your collection record remains.
Q: Can I buy specific weapons directly?
Generally, no. Murder Duels uses a gacha system where you buy cases that contain random items. You cannot purchase a specific gun directly from the shop unless it is a special limited-time offer.
Q: Do items give better stats?
Most items in Murder Duels are cosmetic. However, different weapon types (Knife vs. Gun) have different stats. A 'skin' of a gun usually performs the same as the default version.
Q: How do I get items without spending Robux?
You can earn Coins by playing the game. Use these Coins to buy Standard Cases in the Shop tab. It takes longer than buying with Robux, but all base weapons are accessible for free.
Q: Where is the Items menu located?
The Items menu is accessible from the main lobby screen. Look for a button labeled 'Items' or an icon representing a backpack or inventory list.
