I was just wondering if there is perhaps a feat or trait that added 1d6 to sneak attack? I've seen the reroll 1's and 2's feats, but have been unable to locate an extra damage dice one.
Thanks,
Matt
new UC, sap master, there are another few feat that add damage.
However it's nonlethal, and ennemy has to be flat-footed.
There's a teamwork feat that adds 1d6 damage if both you and your flanking partner have it

Gain levels
The Teamwork Feat Precise Strike adds 1D6 sneak attack. It's a team work feat so you need a flanking buddy with that feat as well.
It is an option to dip a class that gives a +1d6 sneak attack at first level. So, Ninja or Rogue (can't have both) and maybe an Alchemist (vivisectionist)?

Do what I do and allow crits to multiply sneak attack damage.
If you are a new GM and you are reading this I can tell you this is generally a bad idea.

You can't and for a bloody good reason
Well, he "can" if he want's. He "can" make crits spawn celestial candy bar's and fiendish sno-cones if he want's. Its just probably not a good idea.
Also, the Knife Master archetype in UC lets you use d8's for sneak attack instead of d6's with a list of dagger-ish weapons (kukri, starknife, etc..), at the cost of using d4's for sneak attack damage with every other weapon. Its not exactly what your looking for but it might be an option to increasing your sneak attack damage.
And if you deside to use crit cards the miltiplier is pointless other than getting more stuff to randomly do on crits but you do have the chance to do things like sever limb or decapitate that guy your party wants to question :)
Which is why every party should have at least one merciful vorpal weapon. rofl

Since the thread is back, I'll mention Accomplished Sneak Attacker for future readers. Of course, it wasn't available five years ago when the thread was active.
Dipping snakebite brawler works too
The Greensting Slayer Magus archethype, can expend 1 point from his arcane pool as a swift action to add 1d6 points of sneak attack.
Well, he "can" if he want's. He "can" make crits spawn celestial candy bar's and fiendish sno-cones if he want's. Its just probably not a good idea.
I disagree Fiendish sno-cones sound delicious... but yeah multiplying sneak attack dice, would not recommend that, stick with the sno-cones.
And of course jumping from class to class with level one sneak attacks. That may do it. Would need to improve flanking bonuses to get the most out of that given most classes and archtypes give a 0 on that first level if they sneak attack.
Rogue, snakestrike brawler, anything else?

Each of these gets sneak attack at level 1.
Brawler (Snakebite Striker)
Magus (Greensting Slayer, must spend arcane pool each time)
Rogue
Alchemist (Eldritch Poisoner) (Could instead do Vivisectionist, but not allowed in PFS)
(level gap)
Inner Sea Pirate
Sleepless Detective
Master Spy
(The prestige classes have skill requirements that need a filler level to access) Thus, at level 8 you will have 7 dice of sneak attack and 1, maybe two BAB.

Note that unchained rogue doesn't technically stack with sneak attack from any other class. Only unchained gets to ignore concealment. Other classes have the sneak attack from regular rogues. In practice, they generally stack though. I took the shadow strike feat just so I wouldn't have to deal with the issue.
The knife master archetype for rogue though, as well as anything else that modifies sneak attack, does apply to other classes, as there's nothing that cares about where your sneak attack comes from.

Pretty sure the guy on the receiving end cares A LOT about where your sneak attack came from...
