I kinda found inkscape too confusing.
Anyways, I guess just experiment with both programs and see how it works, but of course with help, any program can be mastered properly.
Illustrator is a lot more advanced and has things Inkscape doesn't have. However, Inkscape is good enough for most of simple vector art you need to do. And with a little patience, you can get really good results.
I know guys that use it for collision detection in video games, it's really good and quick for vectorizing some images.
But actually drawing with it? If you know illustrator, stick with that. Drawing in inkscape is especially problematic if you use a tablet, although it seems like it should be easier and more fun.
