Rejuvenating


Advice


What's the benefit of the second use (2 mythic power) of the legendary item ability Rejuvenating over the 8th tier base ability Unstoppable?

"Unstoppable (Ex)
At 8th tier, you can expend one use of mythic power as a free action to immediately end any one of the following conditions currently affecting you: bleed, blind, confused, cowering, dazed, dazzled, deafened, entangled, exhausted, fascinated, fatigued, frightened, nauseated, panicked, paralyzed, shaken, sickened, staggered, or stunned. All other conditions and effects remain, even those resulting from the same spell or effect that caused the selected condition. You can use this ability at the start of your turn even if a condition would prevent you from acting."

"Rejuvenating
The bearer of this item can expend uses of legendary power to rejuvenate her body. As a standard action, she can expend one use of legendary power to heal herself of 10 points of damage per mythic tier she possesses. Alternatively, as a standard action she can expend two uses of legendary power to remove a single condition affecting her.

A legendary item must be a minor or major artifact to have this ability."


First, you can remove any condition, not just the ones listed in Unstoppable (though I don't know how many conditions are out of that list).
Second, Rejuvenating is accessible much earlier (due to the number of abilities being capped by your tiers, I'd say 4th tier to actually benefit from it).

However, once you get to 8th tier, you're better off using Unstoppable and sticking to the HP healing of Rejuvenating.

Most of the ones missing are ones that you can't use standard actions to resolve, such as unconsciousness.

According to Heal, ability damage (and possibly drain by extension), feebleminded, and insanity are all conditions. Also of note is that cursed is also a condition that can be removed.

Finally, I find a bit of interest of Nauseated being on the list, when nausea prevents you from free actions according to a (possibly poorly thought) FAQ.

They thought of that, actually.
