Or make them both "Expertise" bonuses and let them stack with anything other than themselves. If someone wants to burn a feat and gain that +1 early but lose a bit of luster with that feat later on, I say let them.

*Shrug* Compendium stills worth it for me, but I have the freedom of discretionary income and lots of patience.
If someone wants to propose something Re: Expertise, go right ahead. I'll read it.
The problem with this solution is the new Essential feats (and some other older feats as well). One could get an Essential feat Feat bonus plus an Expertise feat Expertise and be +2 to hit and an Superior Implement Accurate feat Unnamed bonus and be +3 to hit. +3 to hit with 3 feats is too potent and at level 5, that would be +3 to hit with 2 feats. It's a darn shame that WotC screwed up the math in the first place and then added Accuracy. They kept claiming (3 years ago) that they weren't going to do that. Adding to hit bonuses that are heavily conditional is a game design flaw.
One could take multiple specific WotC feat bonus feats (i.e. the ones with the word Expertise in their name) and make them Expertise feats instead, but that kind of defeats the purpose.
Making the LEB bonus a feat bonus limits it to +2 with 2 feats and +2 with 1 feat at level 5. The PCs here already have this.
Course, if we are going to discuss this, we probably should resurrect that thread.

What I meant by "both" was "both the current expertise ruling and the new expertise feats." I spologise for being lax in my explanation.
This would mean that, in fact, people could not take the new expertise feats and gain a +2 to hit becuase they would be similarly typed.

Please resurrect the thread.
And please don't make it another feat category. I think feat bonus is great and there shouldn't that much power stack that give a to-hit bonus. IMHO, the best solution would to get rid of the houserule entirely. Who cares if it is a feat tax if everyone will pay it? When you start at level 4, you got at least 3 feats anyway. Now (with Essentials) you can still choose another nifty bonus with the 'expertise feats'.
And, for the record, I never liked the 'hidden' racial expertise feats.

I'm currently able to read incoming e-mail, but not send any out going mail. I can resolve this issue by contacting my internet provider, which I plan to do next week. Until then, I can't send CS approvals to the judges.
here is the CS for Rumbum Requesting approval for lvl 6.
thanks
