Okay, I'm going to try to come up with three that nobody's mentioned yet. This is going to be hard.

Firstly, he's far too trusting. This ties into what KingSparta and Tansyflower mentioned about how he wants to avoid conflict, but another aspect of this is how it allows people to trick him. For instance, in "Copycat", he easily gets trapped by Roger. And I'm not going to spoil an unaired episode, but I suspect anybody who's seen the whole season already will know the other example I'm thinking of.

As Cat Noir, he has trouble taking things seriously. I'm not talking about puns here; I'm talking about times when he's far too relaxed about pressing threats. For instance, he'll sometimes just sit back and watch Ladybug fight a villain rather than jumping in and helping win the fight. He's excited to be a hero, but doesn't seem to realize the importance of the duty that comes with the job.

And lastly, he doesn't really have very much self—confidence—which is odd given my previous point. We can see this most clearly in "Gamer": despite having actually beaten Max in the tryouts, he acts like he's got no skill whatsoever in the game, claiming that Marinette is doing everything when they work together, and eventually giving up the spot he'd won in the tournament. I think this is actually really sad, and I hope it's a front on which he can develop in future seasons.
