An excellent choice of dual class!
Since your just scouting - forget move silently, just use hide in the shadows and you really only need about 50 points (max) here (because you can always wait untill it works - it's not like you need to be able to imeadiatly hide for a backstab). You can probably get away w/ less points here and use boot of stealth or the like to augment your score. Rangers (Minsc & Valyger) have this ability in plentifull supply so if you have them in your party then you might want to spend the points elsewhere.
#1 open locks (you don't want to be wasting 2nd level spells on knock), figure at least 75 points here.
#2 detect traps, 50 + points.
#3 pick pockets or set traps (your choice, both are capable of offensive manuevers - for pick pockets, if a creature isn't imeadiatly offensive (red)that you know you will be fighting then just go up to it and rob the wepons or protection items off of it.)
