Tips & Strategies

Fast Hands allows for the best solo stealth attacks: use one bonus action to hide, use the main action to attack with ranged weapon, then the second bonus action to flee the area. Enemies will search where you were, and if they can’t find you, won’t attack.
Something easy to do is forget about their Second-Story Work feature, use it to evade enemies and stay in stealth by jumping from higher places and taking less damage.
