Trait Details
In deadly arts I take Revealed Training rather than Panic Strike, because panic strike reduced the dammage of our torment per 2. (in last trait i take potent poison, i can't change it, I think it's a bug...)
I take Mug rather than Dagger Training because Mug apply Bazilik Venom, and if you used correctly your Steal you can interupt at the engage then put 10 stacks of confusion to your victim with the perplexity's runes.
In trickery I take Bountiful for egids who counter the venom engage.
I take Uncatchable but two other traits are good, flanking Strikes for do your combo faster than light, or thrill of the crime for a more teamplay way.
In shaddow Arts i chose Hidden Thief for have furtivity when i steal and next chain with Sneak Attak, who apply all venom stacks instantly.
Shadow's Embrace if good for dueling condition classes.
You can the the video for have an idea of the gameplay (i've a low skill with thief ^^').
