Like how do you do the things to make the swords take away damage?

To make the moviments etc..
usually use setani,replaceani.

Trigger the NPC Server with a set of coordinates, have it check the position and then make it take away x health points from anything whose location matches.

Can you give me like an example of the sets and what you said?

Also thank you osrs to for help.

I found a good example at NewFeatures:

triggeraction targetx,targety,action,params;

This is one of the commands that give you like 50% more scripting
power than before. It is like a combination of hitobjects and
callnpc, but better. With 'triggeraction' you invoke an event
to the object on positon (targetx,targety). If the object is
an npc, then the npc script is called with the flag
'action<action>' set, when the object is a player then the
weapon scripts of the that player are called with the
'action<action>' flag set.
'params' can be one or more parameters, divided by commas;
the called script can read the paramters by accessing the
message code #p(paramindex).
Because this is hard to explain with words, here some little examples:

- trigger player weapons
You can easily do a weapon which freezes the other
player:

if (playertouchsme) toweapons Freezing-Weapon;
if (weaponfired) {
triggeraction playerx+1.5+vecx(playerdir)*2,
playery+2+vecy(playerdir)*2,freeze,;
}
if (actionfreeze) {
freezeplayer 3;
setplayerprop #c,FREEZED;
}

Both players must have this weapon for making it
working. Then use it on the other player, and he will
be freezed, because a 'freeze' action is sent to him
and his weapon script, called with flag 'actionfreeze',
will freeze him. You can also move the if (actionfreeze) ...
into an system npc so the weapon can be used on all
players.

I'll try to explain it as simple as possible

Ok, The actual sword part is really simple. Just a basic NPCW(weapon) that sends a triggeraction (I believe someone already posted what triggeraction is) that sends parameters to the NPC-Server. The parameters can (and should) be the X and Y where the sword hit is, also the player who swung the swords accountname, index, or ID would be a good thing. You can add other things for more options and such later.

After you do that you need some kind of System to handle the triggered actions serverside. This can be a NPCW also. It will recieve the actions and handle them appriopriatly. Such as finding out if a player is in the coordinates passed in the parameter. If there isn't then nothing will happen (unless, ofcourse, you want something to happen. Such as saying "MISSED!"), but if there is a player in the given coordinates then you can then cause damage to the player however you see fit.

I tried to make this simple, if you have questions just talk to me on AIM or through forum PM

An example? Of coordinates? Okay, here's an example set of coords: (16,12). Want another? (30,9). But I think the problem here is not lack of clarity on my part, but rather lack of expertise on yours. You don't really have any idea what I'm talking about, do you?

Nope I don't understand since you use big words that I don't understand. Sorry about that. :(

you don't know what coordinates are?? go back to school, maybe you can learn what 2+2 is -.-

2+2 is 4 stupid. I didn't get the clarity and stuff. Also I know what coordinates are.
