Poisoner: For rogue play styles that are tired of seeing Skyrim’s repetitive crossbow sneak kill animations, being able to silently kill enemies by using poison is a much-needed change of pace. This reduces the need to invest perk points into either tree. If those players reach level 100 in Enchanting, they can then double enchant their gear to boost both Pickpocket and Sneak at the same time. Players can easily reach the ‘90% success rate’ cap solely by wearing gear that improves Pickpocket skill. This includes Pickpocket and it’s to the detriment of the Pickpocket skill tree as a whole. One of the best reasons to level Enchanting in Skyrim is that items can be outfitted to bolster any play style.

Players can save-scum and reload failed attempts to retry, but this is tedious, immersion-breaking, and is usually not worth the trouble. Getting caught pickpocketing non-hostile NPCs is even worse, as it places a bounty on your head, alerts any nearby guards, and results in paying a fine, losing all stolen goods, or serving time in jail. The primary benefit of leveling the Pickpocket skill tree at all is that it makes it easier to steal rarer, more valuable items. It’s even less worthwhile to pick the pockets of hostile NPCs, since they can simply be looted once they’re killed. Between looting fallen enemies and digging through Skyrim’s deepest, longest dungeons, it’s hardly worth the time (or the perk points) to pick the pockets of non-hostile NPCs for gold. Once Skyrim players have reached higher levels, gold is rarely an issue.

Pickpocket does synergize well with a pure rogue build, however, as it’s a way to make the most of break-in missions or even just ambling about Skyrim’s cities. 
Again, however, the player could alternatively just pick the lock. This quest involves multiple locked doors that are more quickly and easily bypassed by stealing keys.
While the skill isn’t strictly necessary, it can be a help during the Hard Answers quest.
