I kinda like NewGuy's version. I mean, while those two can fight with the ones higher up in great match, I'd still say the ones he lists as 9s are a bit better.

Hero of Tython
The Emperor's Second Wrath

Level 8:
Satele Shan
Darth Malgus
Revan
Darth Nyriss
Darth Baras

Level 7:
The Exile
Lord Scourge

May I ask, why Revan is level 8 (along with Nyriss or Malgus? ; C)? I would say, that he's level 9.

Twice?

I know the first time, but it was after she fought about 20 Magnadroids, killed a dozen, and was tired and wounded.\

The first was when she fought him with Mundi and the other Jedi. Yet, despite the aid from the other Jedi she still got her ass kicked.

That's twice in a row she is mentioned in the same breath as people like Yoda, Kenobi, Mace, and Dooku. She is either an 8 or a 9 undoubtedly.

Not sure how that puts her on any of their level. And she has certainly done nothing to suggest she is on a level with Yoda and Mace.

Also according to The Force Unleashed, when Anakin/Vader was clearing the temple and killing everyone, she clashed with him and managed to survive and escape.

Quote?

I saw no mention of it in the Xbox version of TFU's databank.

Oh yea, I forgot she was there.

Still, as we all know he was, like, twice over as dangerous in the miniseries as outside it.

I am honestly going by Wookiepedia, which says it's in the databank. I don't have the game myself, just the comic version.

She does have her performance against Starkiller too, so not relying *just* on that or anything.

Proof?. Vader took out 5 Jedi at once with ease. Maul lost to a Padawan.

The first quote is false, Cin Drallig is mentioned instead of Shaak Ti.

There are two releases of the book. The most recent has Shaak Ti the original has Cin Drallig.

I was looking for a kind of sword fighting, that was reminiscing of what was in the movies that we already done. But a more energized version of it, because we actually never seen a real jedi at work, we only seen old men, crippled half droid half man, and young boys that learn from these people. So to see a jedi fighting in the prime of the jedi, I wanted to be a much more energetic and faster version of it - George Lucas.

What he says there is that Vader or ANH are in their prime, not Maul>Vader

He was referencing the difference between OT dueling and TPM duels...the only people who fought in TPM are Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan and Darth Maul.

But faster isn't always better.

For me it's obvious, that Maul > Vader in term of sabers.

I've heard this quote 100 times. And it means nothing lol. Vader is still far above Maul in sabers.

This quote clearly says, that PT era is jedi's prime era. It means, that people like Kenobi, Anakin are in their prime during Clone Wars. In OT Kenobi is just old man, and Vader is just half machine.
Vader fought old Kenobi, and it looks equal.
Maul fought this prime Kenobi (TCW, if You disagree with TPM), and it also looks equal.
Also, there is a comic, when Maul was resurrected and Vader fought him (as I remeber it's not canon, right? - but still, it's more then nothing, I guess). And in pure saber fight, Maul was better. In al-out duel, I bet Vader as a winner, but he have to aid himsef with his force powers.

Alright, here's a question- What tier would you place someone who's a generic, background Jedi Guardian or Sith Warrior?

How about someone who takes on three of the above at once?

Very very low. As for taking three at once, it's hard to tell but that alone wouldn't bring them up to the top. After all, Jango took down several Jedi with his bare hands.
