It may be good enough for the OP's purposes, though.
Ah, thanks Thurallor, that explains some of the weirdness I was seeing. It seems if multiple effects are removed simultaneously the second (or subsequent) EffectRemoved contains the args.Effect since the args.Index is no longer valid. That makes the whole thing workable.

The code would then look like:
Code:
 localPlayer=Turbine.Gameplay.LocalPlayer:GetInstance();
 effectList=localPlayer:GetEffects()

 count=0; -- initialize variable
 -- define the AddCallback function
 function AddCallback(object, event, callback)
   if (object[event] == nil) then
     object[event] = callback;
   else
     if (type(object[event]) == "table") then
       table.insert(object[event], callback);
     else
       object[event] = {object[event], callback};
     end
   end
   return callback;
 end

 EffectRemovedHandler=function(sender,args)

   local effectName=""
   Turbine.Shell.WriteLine("args.Effect:"..tostring(args.Effect))
   if args.Effect==ni then
     effectName=effectList:Get(args.Index):GetName()
   else
     effectName=args.Effect:GetName()
   end
   if effectName=="Schnelle Erl\195\182sung" then
     killcount=6;
     do_update()
   end
-- uncomment the following line to see the name of every effect as it is removed in case the name is not "Schnelle Erl\195\182sung"
--   Turbine.Shell.WriteLine("effect:"..effectName)
 end

 AddCallback(effectList,"EffectRemoved",EffectRemovedHandler)

 ChatMonitor = Turbine.Chat;
 ChatReceived = function(f, args)
   local msg = args.Message;

   if(args.ChatType == Turbine.ChatType.PlayerCombat) then
     if string.find (args.Message,"Verbesserter Gnadenschuss",1,true)~=nil then
       killcount=6;
       do_update()
     else
       if killcount==0 then
         do_update()
       else 
         if string.find (args.Message,"Verbesserter Schneller Bogen",1,true)~=nil then
           killcount=killcount-0.333
           do_update()
         end
       end
     end
   end
 end

 AddCallback(Turbine.Chat, "Received", ChatReceived)
Note, the commented line " Turbine.Shell.WriteLine("effect:"..effectName)" can be uncommented to verify what the effect name is in case it is not "Schnelle Erl\195\182sung"
