She took on an entire academy of Sith, defeated Sion three times and defeated Darth Traya in succession all on arguably the most powerful dark side nexus in mythos. In comparison Maul has some high level TK feats and Darth Sion level endurance feats. Go figure tbh.
No, but the fact that she's a Wound in the Force, which makes anything Malachor could to do to her irrelevant while not a single other person there is probably plays a huge factor into that, as well as the fact that most of her victories were likely lightsaber related.

"There is a world on the outer rim surrounded by mass shadows. Past the graveyard of Mandalorian warships this planet suffers. Crushed in gravity's fist. To walk on it's surface is to feel it crushing every cell of your being. It is like being buried alive until it seems you will never breathe again."
"Traversing it's surface had been agony. Mentally, she had still sensed the anguish of all who had lost their lives there. Physically, the intense gravity of the world had held her in its crushing grip, leaving her gasping for breath. It had been the most awful and horrific experience of her life."
"On Malachor she'd felt the echoes of unimaginable pain [...] On Malachor she had felt the echo of great destruction"
Yet apparently everyone else was fine under this gravity crushing thing. Also you folks are implying, that Maul wouldn't be able to the the same.
It's a great feat and all, but let's not go and say Suirk would be the only one capable of doing it.
That being said, can we stop looking at this singular feat each and every time? Because all I see is this one feat being discussed at length and really nothing else whenever there's a thread involving such.

Actually, we discuss 4 main feats.
- Beating Atris
- Slaughtering an "infinite" army
- Beating Darth Nihilus
- Everything on Malachor
It's not really one feat anyway. And no, not everyone else was fine. Dark siders had to draw on the dark energies of the planets to survive, it's how they corrupted light sided force users.
Sure, I expect they all bowed down before the majesty over her wound and such. And indeed the Force and lightsaber combat are totally exclusive of one another. Everyone else? Lol who?All the matters is Maul couldn't.

It does, if Malachor presents such immeasurable pain that someone has to use the Dark Side to survive, then why does the fact Surik is as far into the light as possible (read: More than even Yoda) not matter?
The army of Sith that invaded citadel station. These Sith who supposedly master many forms of lightsaber combat specifically to kill Jedi...
Edit: Not to mention the worst part was psychological, which would have a major effect on her ability to draw on the force.
Key word. Sith. Screams of pain and anguish will only empower them.Maul is not defeating Traya, Sion and an academy of Sith with his abilities hampered and his opponents empowered. Traya could choke him out by herself.
