AA - no idea, seems to have very little effect. it's only set on empty set particles, and reflect, which is never read from. BB - for animation types 0x1 and 0x14, this is the model used for the projectile of the attack. ff is simply no model, or the item.bin graphic for the used weapon. Model data can be found Secondary Effect 0x1b69dc Table here, 0x801b69dc is the model data of an arrow, 0x801b6d00 for a stone, 0x801b6f00 for the reflect barrier. Not sure yet what spell charge is doing with a BB, but it is the only other instance of this being a non-0 value, and also the only other routine that reads the value. CC - zero DD - the actual function of the particles.
