Ok, so here's what I think I may want to do for a thief template. Suggestions/advice/criticism is all welcome I also have a max of 710 natural skill points.

Stealing:90 > 120 w/ shadow dancer and burglar's bandana
Snooping:90 > 100 w/ burglar's bandana
Stealth:90 > 120 w/ shadow dancer and burglar's bandana
Hiding:100 > 100
Fencing:100 > 120 w/ dread's revenge
Necro:40 > 40 (For wraith form)
Poison:80 > 80
Ninjitsu:120> 120

Totals are 710 natural and 800 w/ bonus'

Also I'll probably run 125 str, 50 dex, and 75 int. I'm scrolled to 250 max stats.

I figure going for more of a thief/assassin type. Obviously I won't be doing heavy pvp with this guy (I'll be killing assassin like though ), and if I do it'll be hopefully "in my favor" I'll be using pots too for healing in case it gets ugly. Thanks for thoughts/criticism in advance!

Sounds good to me, although the assassin part is more of a deterrent to allow you escape as I doubt you will take anything other than an amatuer or crafter out with only Fencing/Ninja/Nox.

UNLESS your sole purpose as an assassin would be a "finisher" as in watching a fight, and taking quick jabs at the already injured (works like a charm).

Haha, never thought about being the "finisher" type, but I can imagine I'd get a pretty good name for myself once I start doing that.

Actually that's how 90% of my kills on my thief/assassin(finisher) have been. Although I have placed skill points in detect hidden instead of Nox which I was just too lazy as I barely hit 40 and gave up.

You may also think of a bow instead of a fencing wep. Can hit from far or get a bow w/ moving shot and run after and hit them.
