I'm almost at the point of being able to choose my next skill and they are all around the 12-14 mark (before adj due to archetype).

I have 8 toughness with my equipment (due to lucky favor rewards), 2 smart (which I am hoping to improve).

I'm trying to decide whether to go for more tough interview skill advancement, or to work on my smarts analysis skills.

Tough:
Advanced interrogation
Intimidate

Smart:
Advanced thread
Advanced hair
research

So I guess I am wondering if I am better off getting handwriting or footprint analysis...or going for advanced intimidate, lock picking or pugilism.

I do tend to concentrate on eliminating alibis first then PE next, and resort to WE as a last option. Lock picking looks handy, but I am wondering if AI might be just as good considering my decent toughness level. It would help me with both alibi and PE tries.

Still, I am a touch lacking in PE analysis, but since my enhancement isn't flash anyway, I'm wondering if I should wait till next time, just in case I get a PE contact in the meantime.

Any opinions would be appreciated.

Also, we've covered some of the same things you're asking for another guy a couple threads down. You might have a look:
