Feat bonuses: Do they stack?

[Cele]

Can I take both the "Skill Focus: Diplomacy" feat and the "Persuasive" feat for a total of +5? Or do untyped feat bonuses not stack?

Untyped bonuses stack. So yes, you can use Persuasive and Skill Focus for a total of +5 to Diplomacy. With 1 rank, and having it as a class skill and a CHAmod of +1, you're looking at a +10 to Diplomacy. Not too shabby!

I am actually looking at Human Bard 2 / Sorcerer (arcane) 1

3 Ranks in Diplomacy
Class Skill +3

Feats
Skill Focus +3
Persuasive +2
Voice of the Sibyl +1 (from Ultimate Magic)

Familiar (Thrush) +3 (from Ultimate Magic)

Trait: Ambassador (Sarenrae)P +2

For a total of +17 + Cha at third level.
At level 10 it would be +31 + Cha
