I just saw this tutorial and decided change smoke to the sphere and redraw old textures.

Nice, a lot of interesting detail there! My main suggestion would be adding at least a slight trail element for showing the trajectory of the arrow to connect the source and destination effects more clearly
I just notice it. At the beginning all was fine, speed was 25 and arrow had a trail. I didn’t pay attention to it when I set the speed to 200, the arrow didn’t have time to appear on the GIF, but it is on the video. Same thing with trail and particles.
I made a tutorial for Russian VFX artists, but with English subtitles for English viewers:

Hmm, I think numbers will be better
Now is good. It would be better if I did it right away as in the reference and didn’t change anything…

I used this model and texture for animation.
Now I don’t need it so I uploaded it here before deleting.Мега файлообменник

Improved my old effect
Last sword is another skill that can be used during 1 second after main activation.
