Need help with creating a blade particle effect

Hi. I'm not really good with particle effects. I want to create a "Magic Blade effect" like this (the first effect, the red one):

That is probably best included as part of the sword animation. You could make a with magic effect and without to do it.

The tough part about using a particle effect to accomplish what you want is that it would have it's movement animated to follow the sword.

If you insist on trying to do this with particle effects, then you should describe what you tried in your failed attempts and why you don't think they worked. At that point, someone may be able to tell you that one thing that will make it do what you want.

Cheers.
