I have a thief im working on, im nearly done but im stuck for the 7th skill, dont know if i should go with detect or wrestling.

Template looks like this atm:

Snoop
Steal
Hide
Stealth
Magery
Lockpicking

I may yet drop LP eventually, im using it to earn money right now and picking in town & dungeons, in which case i will take both[this is fairly likely actually] but right now i dont know what to take. Wrestling is going to help me get away when i do get found out, but detect hidden is so much fun when revealing bards in dungeons or people at banks.

Any experienced rogues have any advice as this is my first ever thief ive made thats actually playable.

Wrestling, otherwise you will be hit 100% of the time by anything and everything.

This isn't a adventure type rogue template this is a House robber template So I would use detect hidden just in case the owner or a friend is inside the house hiding

Not really Detect Hidden would also detect traps for his lockpicking

You will also reveal the owner, who might come back to a "You have been revealed" journal message. Then the jig is up..
