Dirty Fighter and Blade of the Society Stack?


Rules Questions


Do these two stack? Dirty fighter adds the trait bonus to base damage. Blade of the Society adds it to damage rolls from sneak attacks.

Since these are two different types of damage (base plus precision dice), would they work together?

And to make things even more crazy, what about Blade of Mercy, which adds the trait bonus to nonleathal damage.

Seems a bit cloudy, I'd imagine it would be more up to the GM to decide, but RAW or for Society play?

They are all trait bonuses to damage, they don't stack.


Actually they would stack, since they add to different areas. Blade of the Society adds specifically to sneak attack damage, while Dirty fighter adds specifically to flanked. Also the other one being to non-lethal while the others are lethal (unless you specify otherwise)

Both gets added to damage, so they wouldn't stack.

Since you think they would, the OP can possibly experience table variance on the meaning of the RAW.
