And Theroc that did not help me at all Mr. Undecided.

I like things that don't run out. Did you notice how I like to maximize my chance to hit with a stunning fist attack? I trip because I want to hit.
I don't want to fizzle my attacks missing an unhittable adversary.
Two 1/day abilities of the magnitude of a level 0 spell don't seem particularly useful. But, as I also said, they might be MORE useful, if I never run into ANYTHING with DR X/Magic.
So, I don't know which is better. It didn't help you because it didn't help me. More choices = more chances for me to be undecided.
