Subterfuge is a very powerful ability, and compares favorably to analog illusion spells. It affects NPCs who are too powerful for [[Rout]] — which, even after all perks and a 25% boost to Illusion from vampirism, can only affect NPCs at level 32 or below. Subterfuge, however, will affect most NPCs in the game.
