Now that the beta has been out for a while , I have a question about potential character builds. Namely , is it possible to create a spellblade type hybrid character? Original screenshots made this look very possible.But from what i've been able to see from gameplay videos most magic now requires the use of a staff making the melee hybrid option less than ideal.

I've also noticed that the magic school of binding seems to have been removed. Does that mean that necromancy will no longer be an option?

Thanks for any and all help.
