So, I really have been enjoying the "Way of the Shackled Beast" Eberron article you wrote, Mr. Logue, but I'm finding myself confused by the Monk Style.
You see, if Disruptive Strike (granted at 6th level) requires Stunning Fist to function, but the shifter monk has sacrificed Stunning Fist at 1st level for Fear No Binds... As far as the rules go, that poor monk can't grab Stunning Fist until their 12th level feat, which seems to leave the Style somewhat wanting.
Don't take this a criticism, but more as an attempt to pick your brain and see if you have any suggestions for the seeming quandary.
(Of course, any Paizo staff that can also answer this question are welcome to respond :))

Thanks for the kind words Magagumo!
Yeah, Fear No Binds should be another option at 2nd level, not 1st level, probably just a typo. This way you can get the Stunning Fist/Disruptive Strike combo, AND you can also go the Improved Grapple/Fear No Binds route too if you want. Hope that helps!
