#1 ADirtyWop Mar 13, 2015 2:57:51	I'm playing a level 3 Bard, but next level I'm going to multiclass into rogue because a) It fits with my characters background and recent experiences. and b) I want in on that sweet sneak attack bonus. The problem at hand is that both classes offer expertise. I can't find anything in the rules to suggest they don't stack.. My Bardic expertise was applied to Persuasion(origin ly a +4) and Stealth (originally a +5). Can I use Rogue expertise to get a +16 and +20 respectively? And if not why? The multiclass section doesn't mention this feature.
