Emperor Malgus is quite a lot more powerful than Anakin. And even as of PoD Bane could disintegrate people with his lightning and destroy the Lehon temple. You might not be aware of this, but the temple was shown in Swtor and in it's latest incarnation is ****ing enormous and survived turbolaser fire. Anakin's b*tchfits don't compare.
In pure sabers Bane was overcoming Kas'im in a similar manner, his ability to fuel his combat with his power. Kas'im being easily comparable to Obi-Wan and others. He's hardly outclassed.
Whether or not Anakin is the overall superior duelist, I was responding to the issue of skill alone. Vader has all of Anakin's technical aptitude and more. His lightsaber knowledge and mastery should be decently higher than Anakin's as of RotJ.
