Myrrh, Frankincense, and Steel: Kurald Galain's Guide to the Magus

Aquatic Agility - In a ship-based campaign, this can be a life saver. In most campaigns, however, it is too situational, and it's easier to prepare yourself for water by carrying a potion of Air Bubble.

Question about this: Would it be better to take Spell Blending instead of this? At level 6, you could use Spell Blending to pick up Air Bubble and, say, Touch of Fatigue. Air Bubble lasts longer (minute/level vs. round/level), and with a sufficient swim score, you can pass the rough water penalties; if you have it prepared, recalling it would cost an arcane pool point anyway. The only real cost is that it would require a level 1 spell slot on the days you would use it. Thoughts?
