So weapon finesse says, "If you carry a shield, its armor check penalty applies to your attack rolls."
My question is, if you're non-proficient with a shield that you also take it's ACP as a penalty to attack rolls. Does this double up and stack or does it only apply once?
Huh, I have literally never noticed that text in Weapon Finesse before.
AFAIK penalties stack unless stated otherwise, so the ACP would presumably apply twice.
Once. It's the same penalty from the same source [shield]. It's just different triggers for the same effect, [using weapon finesse] and [non-proficient].

Me neither. Will have to remember that should my gunslinger decide to pick up a shield.
