What i mean by this is is there anyway to make a spell (for instance like ffxi redmage en-fire type) where you can imbue a weapon with a property through the
use of a skill. I know you can choose the elemental of your spell an so forth, but im looking along the lines of seeing say a flame on your blade when you attack
and for it to boost dmg a bit. I also know i can just use something like the fire spell/weapon strike, but not quite what im looking for. If anyone understands what im talking about, if this is possible through animation editing or what not, please advise me. thanks  :P

Make an attack that uses Dmg_Weapon formula and slap the element you want on it perhaps? Won't do any extra damage unless you have a Strengthen: Element item on, though.

Better idea.
Use the 2D formula Dmg_(PA*(WP+Y))
This will boost your damage and still be just like the Dmg_Weapon formula (if Y is zero, you do your normal damage) and you get the element. As for animations, that's something a spriter would (but won't) need to handle.

EDIT: Edited for accuracy...I derp'd
