Insightful Manipulator: A unique way to metagame, Insightful Manipulator allows the Mastermind to determine the Class Levels, Charisma Score, Wisdom Score, or Intelligence Score of a target versus their own. And when used to help an ally attack another creature, Help's range extends to enemies as far as 30ft. Master of Tactics: Perhaps their only combat-oriented ability, Master of Tactics allows Masterminds to use Help as a Bonus Action. When underutilized, the Mastermind can severely underperform in combat. Disadvantage: Sadly, the Mastermind doesn't have a lot of active or combat options that Rogues should normally have. Their ability to gather information, analyze them, and misdirect others are welcome assets when dealing with socialites and other deceitful NPCs. Advantage: Players with a knack for intrigue will love the Mastermind in extremely social campaigns. Spymasters, courtiers, and schemers fall under the Mastermind Archetype. 
Masters of information, Masterminds have means of tapping and navigating layers upon layers of intrigue to get information they need. Masterminds live only to serve - but themselves first, their masters second. Granted, Steady Eyes does have a movement limitation, making them great for pre-combat planning.
Steady Eyes: When combined with Eye for Detail, Steady Eyes become a great way to detect hidden enemies and hidden traps. Unerring Eye: Albeit Wisdom-based, Unerring Eye is a great result for a WIS investment given its ability to spot illusions. When successful, Insightful Fighting gives the Inquisitive the opportunity to make a Sneak Attack even without the attack roll Advantage. Insightful Fighting: Inquisitives who took Expertise in Insight can do a lot of wonders with Insightful Fighting. There's not much to do after an Inquisitive spots an inconsistency in their environment. Disadvantage: Sadly, the Inquisitive does have a lack of an "active' component to their repertoire. Their Subclass Features excel in arming them with the means to see through hidden things. Advantage: Nothing perhaps beats an Inquisitive's unparalleled approach towards Perception and Insight. Inquisitives catch liars in the act and can spot inconsistencies in environments that make them great trackers. Rogues who take on the Inquisitive Archetype tend to notice things that other people don't ever want them to notice. The Inquisitive fills in the gap that other people don't usually notice.
