Is it worth killing Umbra in Oblivion?

You can kill Umbra for her powerful sword and armor early in Oblivion, but it's a tough fight; she's a high-level NPC meant for later, so killing her prematurely gives you an amazing early weapon but bypasses the Daedric quest for Clavicus Vile, potentially making you a murderer if you attack before her quest triggers. Decide based on if you want the challenge and gear now (by luring guards to help) or prefer to play the quest later for the Masque of Clavicus Vile, though many players keep Umbra for the sword's utility.
