Well, Hord's reputation, and the context in which we get it should be enough. He was the greatest of all the Sith duellists. This is from someone who is in the best position to know things... Kreia, who researches Malachor V, Korriban, and other sources. Kreia, who lived in the Golden Age of the Sith. She probably knew Exar Kun.And Ragnos has been defended heavily since this forum began... The guy ruled for a century and then some without ever losing power, on a planet that included Sith like Ludo Kressh and Naga Sadow, the latter of which used enhanced battle meditation and chucked star cores at naval fleets. Even in death, neither Naga, Ludo, nor even Exar Kun would mess with his ionized air particles. That just drips of power.
Oh please, one person saying that about someone she didn't know hardly makes him all powerful. Sure he had to be good but he wouldn't be unstoppable. Kreia also says Revan is like the heart of the Force and who could beat that? Naturally no one.
So he ruled for a century. Big deal. How many Sith were there at a given time? How did the Sith keep populating anyway? Err, back on subject, Yoda was the highest council member for about 700 years and we know he isn't all powerful. So Naga could use battle meditation, so what? It's a gift, not a level of power. And he didn't chuck stars, he used sith magic to simply detonat the core. According to Lord Darkstar, Kun did that too, Revan controlled a star, Luke manipulated a black hole, so it's not all powerful either, and it wouldn't help in a fight much.
