However, suggestion requires fascinate, which has a perform save, whereas command can either be issued to creatures that have been fascinated, or, more relevantly, creatures that have been subject to soothing voice, which has a diplomacy save. Now, my diplomacy is probably going to hover at around 8 higher than my perform (I'll max out both, and then my diplomacy will have +2 each from being half-elven and the synergies from sense motive, bluff, and knowledge (nobility and royalty). So... substitute or not?
