As Gideon said, her abilities aren't exactly combat related. She IS however, a being of pure dark side energy. She has enough power to cause psychosis in random Jedi, as well as whisper to Luke in his sleep while he's asleep. She also controls the flora and fauna of her planet, destroyed Sinkhole Station, and made "Ship" obey her without any question. She's definitely a ridiculously powerful being and it took a lot of sith and Luke to take her down, but it doesn't look like she has combat related abilities, or chooses not to use them.
