Powers limited to a certain number of uses per rage count any continuous use of range and disciplined rage as a single use of rage.

At 7th level, each minute of disciplined rage counts as one round of raging. At 10th level, each ten minutes of disciplined rage counts as one round of raging. At 13th level, every hour using disciplined rage counts as one round of raging. At 19th level, the noble savage can use rage powers at any time.
