MAGE/THIEF!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You get all the benefits of both. You can hide, backstab, then fight toe-to-toe without being hit via enchantments (stoneskin, blur, and mirror image come to mind). At higher levels, you can cast POWERFUL mage spells (I like cloud spells. eg. Cloudkill, Abi Dhalsim's Horrid Wilting, Death Fog, and Incendiary Cloud.) I've killed MANY foes using this tactic:
Hide
Find the enemy
Go out of range and set a row of traps
Get close, but not within site
Cast Area Effect spells (clouds, fireball, etc)
Hide right after the spell is cast but before it actually hits
If there are survivors, backstab, then retreat to your row of traps.
I've done nearly every quest in the game by myself (No other characters, no NPC's) and nothing has survived this tactic yet. Heck, I still have 30 some Extra Healing Potions and a like number of Healing Potions.
MAGE/THIEVES RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
