When to dual thief (bounty hunter) to fighter?

Hey all,

On my current run I'm playing a bounty hunter, planning to dual to fighter. What's a good level to get my thief skills to before I do this? I want it to be sometime in BG1.

Considering the lower skill points, I've mostly just been focusing on stealth and set traps, planning to just use one of the many other thieves for lockpicking and such. So I guess what I mainly want to know is the, like, acceptable minimum for Hide/Move Silently/Set Traps. I know I can always save scum, but that's lame.

    It really depends on whether or not you're planning on continuing the character into SoD and BG2 or not. For a BH I think level 11 would be best for the extra trap and more thief points, but you'd never be able to get enough fighter levels to finish the dual. For BG1 alone I think you'd be stuck at level 6 which would mean focusing on getting set traps to 100. After that you could focus on either stealth or one of lockpicking or disarming traps but probably not both.
