Stacking sneak attack

I was wondering how sneak attack stacking works for the Phantom.

In the class description it states that it can't stack with rogue sneak attacks. Which would be fine, but how about sneak attacks from other sources - like other classes? Which ones can be stacked with the Phantom?

Also - what about using a weapon that adds sneak attack damage. Does it stack?

Other prcs sneak attacks should stack, but weapons/ items that add sneak will not since they don't stack worth rogue sneak attack

Wait... so sneak attacks from items don't stack with sneak attacks from any class? :
Well... That's a load of money I won't ever see again :D

No, they don't stack with ROGUE sneak attacks and likely phantom. They do stack with assassin death attack and should stack with any sneak dice from prc's

If new and bought them from a shop and not the auction house you can ask a DM if its okay to reimburse I would think. Just a suggestion as I thought exactly the same, and that was 6 months into the game :)

ok so DA from sin stacks on rogue and phantom and SA from items stack with DA from sin but SA from items wont stack on SA from rogue or phantom. i suppose that makes sense. the SA from items is the exact same SA as base class SA so they will not stack. it would be like having toughness from FB and WoD. only counting once.

stacking is why there are so many different SA type feats, but it still sucks because only rogue SA quals for ISA bc its the only one that goes high enough (maybe phantom too i guess?)
