Hello,
I am working with an idea to make a Half-Orc Rogue with the Skulking Slayer archetype in a campaign that starts at lv3.
The only problem I have is that, by itself, it would not have access to surprise follow through until lv4.
So I was wondering what the interaction would be if I
-Took the First level in Snakebite Striker Brawler, which would net me 1d6 sneak attack, and the +1 bab I need for power attack(to go into cleave, etc etc).
- And then I took two levels in the Skulking Slayer Rogue?
Would that mean that
-At level 3 I would have 2d6 sneak attack damage?(1d6 from 1 level in Brawler , and 1d6 from 2 levels of rogue)
-at level 4 it would jump to 3d6(1d6 from 1 level of brawler, and 2d6 from 3 levels of Rogue)?
Normally a Straight rogue would accomplish 3d6 sneak attack at level 5.

Yes, they stack, but if you use unchained rogue it throws a monkeywrench into things. Unchained rogues can sneak attack vs concealment. No other class gets this, so against concealed targets you would only get the rogue portion of it (unless you take the thing that lets you sneak attack concealed separately)
