How would I make a Charge ability like Barathrum's Charge of Darkness in DotA or just a Warrior's Charge in WoW? Or a leap ability like the Barbarian's in Diablo? I know you have to make a crow form attachment or something...but that's all I know lol. Help is much appreciated/needed! thanks ! :D

You could try this one out...
It's only a charge that doesn't jump or fly or anything....
Based on Dota's Charge of Darkness
I know the special effect is horrible, iam not master at special effect manipulation

Advice: pay attention to your flying height of the Leaping unit, I use counter systems that run using Integer variables. so I work something out to were he gains height while moving for the the lower numbers 1-5 and then still is moving forward but decreasing height for the higher counter numbers 6-10. This would be if I used a counter system checking 10 times.

This will create a triangle shaped jump. If you want a parabola you'll have to use a 'real' variable which saves the units instantaneous z velocity. Then in your periodic system, you reduce the unit's flying height by that value and then decrement your variable by some "gravity" constant (try starting with something like 10. :) )
