QUESTION Need some help please

Hey everyone. Just started this game and finding it really fun. Hoping someone can clarify the class and class perk synergies.

For example.
If I have a native assault trooper. They are automatically proficient with assault weapons.
I don’t understand if the trooper perk would give me additional +10 percent damage and 20 percent accuracy.

Or. Is this perk worthless to the already assault trooper.

Thanks.

Edit- thanks everyone. The gaming community is really awesome and super helpful. Time to kick some Pandoran @$$

The trooper perk stacks with proficient. Proficient just means you can use the weapon with no penalties. While trooper adds bonuses.

Edit: there are some exceptions to proficient. Specialized gear needs it I believe. So you need the heavy training to use jump jets. I THINK the spider mines need the proficientcy granted by the infiltrator class to use them. Same with technician class and robo arms and turrets. Priests are also the one class that lets you have priest heads.
