Strangler (Brawler archetype) + Strangler (Combat Feat)

[Drizzt 3.0]

Would the extra sneak damage from Strangler (Brawler archetype) stack with the extra sneak damage from Strangler (Combat Feat)? I am leaning towards yes, since the feat uses up a separate action (swift).

Bump?

By RAW, wording is no clear so depending on the interpretation you can add your sneak attack twice.

RAI, Strangler (brawler) do not need the feat since he has the ability to do what the feat provides.

Obviously I am arguing for the application of both at once since I am playing the PC this applies to; regardless of my bias the wording is what makes me think they are meant to be separate. Strangler (Combat Feat) simply allows one to apply their sneak damage to a successful grapple "harm" check by spending a swift action. However, Strangler (Brawler Archetype) deals an extra 1d6 sneak (+1d6) damage upon either "harm" or "pin" and doesn't have to spend an action. These are two different features that could apply in different situations separate from each other, but should also be able to be utilized togehter for a single build in which the PC never pins but only grapples and damages.

There is no issue re: stacking. The class ability adds sneak attack on a successful grapple check, it is inherently part of that grapple checks damage. The feat is an entirely separate action that although it is triggered by a successful grapple check is not a part of that grapple check.
