Aren't Revan's feat and abilities based on many Game Mechanics that can't be taken into account as entirely consistent or accurate?
I'd still say he's better than Suit-Vader though. A little lightning and...

Darth Vader is the most powerful sith lord yet after Datrth Sidious who wore the kyber crystal. Darth Revan is nothing compared to him. Even Lord Maul had MUCH more potential and midicholorean level then revan ever would have.

I've got pages of this somewhere...
Well, off the top of my head:
*Vader's hate helped to keep him alive for twenty years.
*In SOTME Vader activates his lightsaber and kills an individual "faster that the human eye can follow," along with blocking another blade with a "lightning gesture" There are quotes of him being "lightning fast" and the sort from RODV and the scripts.
* He killed the Dark Woman in a very cool fight, and reveals to us that , like his former self, he becomes more powerful the longer he fights.
*When Vader went up against Boba, Vader used the force to hold Boba in one spot, and hid grip was compared to steel or something. Also, he pops someone's head.
* Vader has a form that relies mainly on strength, and he is tremendously powerful, he can easily crush a lightsaber in his hand, has mechanical limbs along with Sith alchemical substances that even further amplify his strength and other physical abilities.
*Unless it's been retconned, Vader can make "a ball of pure white energy" using the force, as he did in SOTME.
*Vader toyed with a pair of Clone Wars veteran Jedi, who had a lot of synergy, and defeated them in seconds.
*Vader has used his hatred to heal himself for a short period of time in SOTE (and had done it before that incident).
Meh, it's kind of lame without actual links to comics and such...
RODV is very good though, so people should check it out, and see what Vader's capable of for themselves.
But unlike Anakin, because of how slow Vader was in the OT (in terms of movement), I'm afraid he wouldn't be that much more of a match for Revan than he was for Luke (in RotJ, not ESB )... I can see why some think he's underrated though, and I agree with that.
Meh. While I'm no newb to Star Wars at all, perhaps I have been underestimating his speed... I'm no stranger to his strength and powers though. I admit though, I do have a bit of a... lack of knowledge about the EU (even though I'm familiar with Darth Revan and what not). *wishes I knew more about it*

Anakin >>> vader in saber skills but in force mastery vader greatly surpasses anakin
And yes vader IS the most underrated sith lord. By newbs logic anybody who has lightning > vader automatically. The fact weather vader is in the top 5 sith lords is debateble and dooku is closely behind vader in power because imo dooku is a little bit underrated

I just know I heard Vader knew Force crush and did some nifty Force things while in the suit.
