[Updated for 1.6]
Patch for VSE. Individual expertise have been nerfed, but are merged together. Each skill has 2 expertise to choose between.

All values below are per-expertise-level. For most situations this means being either 50% or 100% faster/better. Many of these are multipliers, rather than additive meaning it impacts the game less than it appears (because the game uses values under 1).
Expertise
Shooting
[b]Sharpshooter[/b]
Accuracy: 0.05
Stealth: 0.05
Ranged Weapon Max Range: 1%
[b]Commando[/b]
Weapon Warmup: -2.5%
Weapon Cooldown: -2.5%
[i]A 100% reduction in either aiming or reloading time was far too weapon dependent and breaks many modded weapons, including Vanilla Weapons Expanded! You could literally get a minigun repeating rifle.[/i]
Melee
[b]Enforcer[/b]
Incoming Damage: -1.25%
Armor Penetration: 5%
Stagger Duration: -5%
[b]Duelist[/b]
Melee Cooldown: -2.5%

[b]Handler[/b]
Tame Chance: 5%
Train Chance: 5%
Attack on Failed Tame Multiplier: -5%
[b]Rancher[/b]
Animal Gather Yield: 5%
Animal Gather Speed: 5%
[i]Work speed and gathering yield are tied to the same expertise IRL. Check out a NZ sheep shearing competition some time. Animal gather yield will likely be reduced in the future, skill can improve how much wool you can shear off a sheep but there is a finite amount of wool to acquire and a 20 skill in animals pawn only getting half of the potential wool on a sheep pre-expertise is absurd.[/i]
