It says 5 or more ranks in this skill gives a +2 synergie to that skill.
so would 10 ranks give that skill say +4 synergie or is it synergerized only once (max +2)?

Also can 2 synergies stack?
for example 5 ranks in bluff and 5 ranks in sense motive should give +4 to diplomacy?

Only once.

cool what about the 5 ranks in two seperate skills leading to the same synergie?

That stacks nicely.


"It’s possible for a character to have two skills that work well together. In general, having 5 or more ranks in one skill gives the character a +2 bonus on skill checks with each of its synergistic skills, as noted in the skill description."

The bonus is untyped.

The ELH has a rule which grants an extra +2 bonus for every 20 ranks you have after 5.

That I had missed. Have to remember that for my next Epic campaign.
