Swinging melee while moving

Character & Animation

Hey,

I’ve got a good combat system set up. Now I want to enable the player to charge his attack while moving, i.e move the weapon out of view and charge the attack. I’ll do this by running an animation on the Press of the attack input; I’m guessing that’s the right way to do this?

If the player is running and he releases an attack, how would I make the character keep on running while doing the animation? I.e just move his arms to swing the blade. Would I need root motion?
