I know Melee Weapon Mastery (PHB2) stacks with normal weapon focus and weapon spec... but does it stack with itself?

Say for example you are specialized in a Morningstar which is both a bludgeoning and a piercing weapon. Could you take Melee Weapon Mastery - Bludgeoning, and then take Melee Weapon Mastery - Piercing and have the bonus from each feat stack on the same weapon?

I was curious if there was a rule on this at all since I cannot seem to find one. If it has been discussed before could someone please direct me to it? I tried the Search option but without any luck.

Thanks for any input!

I think this is addressed in the feat description itself. And no, it doesn't stack.

Yeap, I apparently did not search enough. It did not say as much in the PHB2 I have... but it is right there in the errata. Now why I did not think to look there before posting? No good excuse, just forgot.

Thanks for the answer btw:D

Even without errata, the basic stacking rules should make it clear that it doesn't stack. Melee Weapon Mastery is an untyped bonus, but untyped bonuses from the same source never stack.

Yeah, but then again, I remember how persistent they were, arguing it would stack, until the errata.
