I'm attempting to create a hit/slash effect, causing a stationary arc of dust particles--purely as a visual effect. Examples can be found here.

Whether it shows at random angles or right in front of the player or some other viewing angle is of no concern, I only need help creating an arc. I assume this is doable using vectors or other variable location shenanigans, but I haven't worked with vectors or skript math much, so I'm struggling.

I would prefer not to install more Skript add-ons or plugins, as I already have several, but I am willing to download another one if necessary. Following is a full list of my current add-ons:
  • Skript-placeholders v1.6.0
  • Skellett v2.0.10
  • skript-particle v1.2.0 (may be useful for this question)
  • skript-yaml v1.5
  • skript-reflect v2.4
  • SkRayFall v1.9.28
  • SkQuery v4.1.10
  • SkBee v3.4.2
I'm also using Skript v2.8.3, and a full list of my plugins (45) can be found here
