I spoke with another friend of mine today who suggested this:

doing a ninja/mage mage/eval/med/ninja/hiding/stealth and using staff of the magi for my weapon as it uses magery instead of a combat skill. Adding in either tactics or anatomy to boost weapon damage?? and I would not need to get my med all the way up, so maybe a slight hybrid of the anat/tactics ?? I really like the hiding/stealth concept but I dont want to just play a pure ninja for these dungeons..
