So wait....all class abilities use magicka? What about weapons abilities? Stamina?

Correct.
Based on Hands-On reviews I've seen mostly from the Tamriel Foundry guys, Weapon skills use Stamina and Class skills use Magicka.
Prim - My beloved bow Camille (yes i name my bows...just live with it^_^)
Sec - Daggers or a scimitar looking 1handsword.
So even like a Destruction staff uses stamina? And even like, a twirly sword move uses magicka? Weird.
I think the bow will be my primary, and alternative will be shortsword and shield.
Bow primary and longsword+dagger combo secondary.
Dual Swords and a Bow will be my build... Daggers have never been my thing just don't have the power I want, so I always go with swords and a bow, haven't failed me in any Elder scrolls game yet
It all depends really... there's still info we don't know. I'd like to know more about how Werewolf will work personally.
Also if there's stats on weapons aside from the obvious damaging attacks... maybe there's a Healing staff with increased healing power... and one with increased Mana regen? Switching out for those purposes would be great for PvP. But we just don't know these specifics yet.
It'l be done on the fly when i get a chance to understand the mechanics.
The stamina usage in sneak seems to be very minimal while moving and regenerates very fast while standing still. medium armor also gives a big sneak staminia usage reduction
So far from what I know I'm thinking doing a Heavy Templar Dunmer
Overall, as much as possible I want to get the spellsword type feel,
Primary
Sword and Shield with the Templar healing abilities to boost its ability to tank.
Thoughts: seems like self healing should make it a decent start for boss/elite tank.
Secondary (less sure about this one)
Lightning Destruction Staff with a mix of the Templar light magic with other general destruction abilities mixed in.
Thoughts: Not sure how this will work out, but I'm hoping something like a battlemage to have an easier role than tank to fall back on.
Daggers and destruction staff sounds pretty neat.
