If it had meant the trio, it would've been mentioned in the text. Revan is Revan.

Your assertion is ridiculous given the context.

So much cancer said in one thread. As for the OP, author's intent > nerdy calculations

Yeah I doubt that's what Drew had in mind.

Er, flawed comparison; it's more that he died to Sidious' Force Lightning (rather than reducing its effects to 2nd-degree burns).

His clone did.

He reduced the effects of Sidious's lightning to the point he could power through it thought it caused him pain.

Fan-calcs, or the actual intent of the author?
Well, if it helps, this scales Vitiate down pretty considerably, and partially raises Revan.

Revan specifically notes before the fight that he can't survive Vitiate for long.

Please don't bring silly mathematical calculations into this.
Also, like NewGuy said, Drew's writing of Force Lightning, especially in this novel, was cancer.

It doesn't matter whether you bring fan calcs into this or not. Vitiate was still on a DS nexus that amplified him. What he showed against Revan isn't his natural power. Scaled down, he should be on Revan's level.

The fact that they're comparable isn't preposterous. Suggesting they're equal, however, is.

Because Revan's the one on the floor helpless by the conclusion of the fight?
Because Revan, Surik and Scourge together only had an equal chance of beating Vitiate as he did of them, suggesting that Revan alone wouldn't have had such success?

And frankly from my reading, Revan failed to contain or absorb any of Vitiate's lighting at all.

I'm factoring out the DS nexus.

The DS nexus doesn't make up with Revan's complete failure to counter the attack.
