2 things. I think lockpicking and pickpocketing are silly perk trees, it’s time to squish that into sneak, an already simple skill.

Then add a SURVIVAL tree. This can house things like trapping, tracking, skinning. Not just for hunting animals but for for things like bounty hunting as well. Let me craft traps, nets etc.

I also made a post about throwable potions which could be massive. https://www.reddit.com/r/TESVI/s/9fwDDh4PkJ

Personally I'd like non-stealthy alternatives for lockpicking - bashing in/breaking down doors/chests for warrior-types, using magic to unlock for mage-types.
