He's great once you learn how to plan his tactics. Ignore the lockpicking, just stick to this:

1-Assassin tree.

2-DW Tree, but only the 3 first passives, Riposte, and the other talents that lead to Momentum.

3-Stealth.

4-Duelist or Bard, maybe even Ranger if you like.

I customized his tactics so that he goes into stealth if he's surrounded, and focuses on attacking whoever attacks me, along with some stuns here and there. Result: A flurry of lightning-speed backstabs that deal insane damage to whoever I can't attack or is stunned. Thanks to his dextery, he lasts long enough, and if he uses Stealth enemies will ignore him instantly and he gets a free backstab.

If you are a tank, or have a tank with you, he can exterminate everyone. If you got a mage, or 2, make them use Haste and deactivate his Momentum. His attack speed will sky-rocket and make backstabs so quickly the game itself can't even keep up. He will suffer a small attack penalty, but backstabs are guaranteed hits anyway.
