Revan would simply fry him with lightning or own him in saber combat. Just because Anakin was meant to bring balance to the force doesn't mean he had to be a very good fighter. All he did was throw the unsuspecting emporer down the hole, and as we saw then, he was extremely weak against lightning.
Originally posted by Obi7It would not be that simple at all. Vader survived a lightning attack from Galen, who was able to take out small armies of storm troopers with the technique.

All he did was throw the unsuspecting emporer down the hole,While taking blast after blast of some of Palpatine's most intense lightning.
and as we saw then, he was extremely weak against lightning.Yes and still managed to kill the most powerful sith in history.

Just because Vader's body is susceptible to Lightning, doesn't mean he'll auto-die if he's subjected. He withstood Lightning from both Galen Marek, who defeated him in combat, and Palpatine, the most powerful Sith Lord in the mythos.
Don't forget also that Vader's lightsaber is quite capable of absorbing incoming Lightning, as is seen in AoTC. In order to capitalize exclusively on Vader's lifer-support system, Revan would need to break through Vader's saber defences, and survive Vader's awesome telekinetic powers.
And unfortunately, Revan-- while known to be extremely knowledgeable in the Force, and a very powerful practitioner-- simply does not possess enough canonical feats of a specific nature that we could use to affirm his victory over Vader.

You guys have no idea what you're talking about. Revan would rape Vader against his will!
Attributing the verb rape, the notion of it being against his will is implied.
Oh, almost forgot:
"The crystal is the heart of the blade.
The heart is the crystal of the Jedi.
The Jedi is the crystal of the Force.
The Force is the blade of the heart. All are intertwined: The crystal, The blade, The Jedi.
You are one."
- Traditional Jedi lightsaber ceremony
^^Revan is not the heart of the Force.
Originally posted by IncanusHe barely used the force against maul in that fight fyi.
Well, in feats no, but thats because he was only in like, 1 comic and 1 game, but Vader almost lost to a resurrected Darth Maul, who fought with Jar'Kai style, not single or double. Revan knew Jar'Kai, and might usae it to pwn Vader.
And so what if revan uses jar kai? His lightaber skills are nowhere near the level of darth maul's.
Revan's lightsaber skills don't have a "level", they have to exist first. We don't even know if he uses Jar kai. Considering he only has one saber in the comics, I rather doubt that he does. I imagine he also fights one handed, considering how damn small the hilt of his saber is.
Realistically he was probably top tier considering he won against a supercharged Malak who according to Drew was getting a serious boost from the SF.
Now, that being said, what does it have to do with the identity of Nihilus?

Actually Ven, the vision in the Tomb on Korriban (cutscene = canon, right?) had Revan using dual blades.
It seems nebulous to me, since every other time we see him, he always has one blade. I mean I suppose it is possible, but it just seems to me that he had a stronger focus on one blade.

Also every other time we see Revan with a lightsaber he is only using one.
Actually, at the beginning you choose if he is LS or DS, male or female. If you chose LS, (s)he is holding both a Green and Purple saber. That's how it played out in my game.
@ Mattatom:
The cutscene plays out with the exile walking through a corridor, then entering a room with Revan waiting inside. Upon trying to converse with him, he ignites his dual sabers and engages you. When you kill him, he was just another mirage, like Malak and Bastilla earlier in the temple.
Ok, in a comic or something, i saw that Revan had 2 blades, a blue and a red, blue for the wisdom of the jedi, red for the passion of the sith. He sometimes wielded 2, oh, and Revan beat a Mandalore in hand to hand combat, i think he could disarm Vader and then kill him like that. And yes, Vader DID use the force in that fight against Maul, or he wouldnt have been able to move that well in his suit, he had to STAB HIMSELF TO KILL MAUL. Revan is actually one of the greatest duelist in history along with being an incredible force user. Oh, and @ The Ground, it was LIKE looking into the heart of the force when u looked at Revan because he was so powerful. And Revan would kill Maul no problem, as very few sith could master the lightsaber as Revan did, he mastered EVERY lightsaber form, except the saber staff or Jar'Kai,it depends on how u make it.
