" Ascalon is a split damage weapon that attacks both physical and magickal damage thresholds. Arming a character with a high magick stat with this weapon can be very effective since the magickal melee damage threshold is significantly lower than the physical one."  -- according to Damage Calculation page (under "Mixed physical and magickal attacks"), character's magick stat does NOT contribute to melee damage.
