Well, I've only a few pics of him and he looked much larger than Mace, but if he isn't, perhaps that was too steep a drop. I was thinking the same thing when I was rereading it. In any case, it didn't hurt him too badly. He's still in third and close at that.
Conduction goes in one direction and never goes in reverse, it would be radiating out from you and then dissipating, water is so conducive that it would substantially weaken the lightning by expansion. But then again, Exar has other Sith techniques that could hold off the fish. I would say he may plummet to 3rd or 4th, but having him fall all the way to fifth just seems a bit drastic.
Well if he has the breathing technique, there shouldn't be an issue, especially if the tunnel is long. The others will have to come up with air, and he can pass right by.
Exar could just freeze the fish in place and leisurely swim by, if he wanted to, or he could possibly grip them all and kill them and then do the same. Either way, the fish shouldn't be an issue. And unless the tunnel is so small he can't get his arms out to breaststroke, I don't see a problem with his second room.
So how far will bulky Exar plummet? The guy looks pretty skinny in some of the pictures, I have a sense its a lot of his clothing and robes that make him that large.
Given the abilities of the Sith Lords, Revan and Exar, they will be in second and first. Mace and Yoda, given the experience, and fighting ability and Force strength, they will follow third and fourth. Obi-Wan lacks experience, both with Sith knowledge, and fighting ability. Here is what I see:
1) Exar - I would believe he would find none of the rooms a trouble.
2) Revan - The only time I see Revan taking any time is in the Rancor room.
3) Yoda - Though Yoda is small, and therefore possibly the slowest, he makes up for it by having an advantage the others may never have, size. The Rancor room, which may slow the others considerably, will be no problem for him.
4) Mace - Though larger and faster than Yoda, he doesn't have the speed that Yoda does in challenges. The Rancor and the fight against the Sith will slow him down, while Yoda will take these with relative ease and little trouble.
5) Obi-Wan - Exactly what saved Obi's ass last round, gets him eliminated this round. He lacks experience, both in fighting multiple duelists, and reading the Ancient Sith heiroglyphs.
Well, my thing is, I don't even know if Obi-Wan can complete the heiroglyph challenge. Obi slows down:
Swim Challenge - Can't use lightning, saber, or stasis
Heiroglyph Challenge - Unless he just guesses the names of Sith apprentices he knows, I don't even know if he has knowledge of this
Rancor Challenge - Without killing, this is tough. He isn't the most fit of the group, and is most likely the least fit, next to un-Force-Assisted Yoda
Duel Challenge - I never remember of Obi-Wan fighting more than one duelist at any time. While I've never heard the same of Windu, he has a style that gives him an advantage, harnessing his enemies power to be his own. Plus, Shatterpoint in itself is a huge advantage.
So 4 out of 5 challenges, Obi lags. I don't think he can catch up or beat Mace in one, especially since it's the first, challenge.

I think it's his shoulder pads. Take a look.
Yeah, it does look to be his shoulder pads. And then you have to take in effect its a comic, so naturally everything will make it seem like he's Superman.
Also, starwars.com has him listed at 1.9 meters. Which is about 6'2" - 6'3", so he's not overwhelming tall. I still say he's about Mace Windu's size.
Just wondering if there's a gangway or corridor between the rooms or if they complete one room and are insta-spawned into the middle of the next one. Because if its the former, like I said, the Sith could zap the water ahead of time. If it's the latter, the Sith may need to be more creative.
And Exar was Vodo's most talented student, so anyone who says he's not bright is being naive. He's hotheaded, but not stupid.
Well, let's put it into perspective like this: after traversing the rocky walls and ledges, they come to a portal (Read: doorway) After entering, they are forced to enter into a cramped space. It eventually slopes downwards and becomes filled with water gradually. So it all really depends if the Sith is going to zap the water just to make sure or not.
