I would personally like to see a weapon which is both melee and magic.
Tt focuses on your spells and makes them do more damage with less magica and when you run out of magica you have a melee retreat.
Make it a staff as that in fantasy are sometimes melee weapons and sometimes the weapons of mages.

I'd just be happy to see the choices returned that we had in Morrowind. Staffs that are two-handed blunts, pole-arms like halberds and spears, axes that are a separate category from blunts, and short blades separate from long blades. Throwing knives and stars. There was never a very good reason to remove that stuff.

I too would like these weapons returned. But I don't care about more melee skills. In the same way we casually accept that Water-Breathing and Open-Lock can fit in the same school of magical training, I'm content with accepting that axes and blunts fit into the same school of martial training.
