Except that it borders in legend/myth, you can't really say if he did or did not use a ritual. I just base his power with how well he did against the strike team/Revan.
Revan was utterly outgunned by Vitiate when the latter became serious; Revan survived due to assistance of his companions and Vitiate's decision to imprison him. Heck, Vitiate could subdue even the trio of Revan, Meetra and Scourge; Scourge realized this fact and chickened out at the last moment when this confrontation was to happen. To give you an idea, Vitiate gave Scourge "Yoda versus Ventress" treatment soon afterwards.
In addition, Vitiate easily subdued the Jedi Strike Team led by Tol Braga; he did not kill those Jedi because he decided to use them as his pwns. PIS.
Of-course, Vitiate is not invincible and greater numbers can work against him with excellent coordination but he is virtually unstoppable in majority of the situations.
It is unwise to reject feats of characters which reveal their true potential. Vitiate simply could not afford to play games with a threat as potent as Dark Council in a confrontation. No individual (with a sane mind) would.

..But Palpatine also has galactic reach/vision. Hell what's actually more impressive that Vader couldn't even lie to Palpatine, meanwhile Scourge could lie to Vitiate whenever he wanted as long as he kept his composure.
Nobody have infallible powers.
It was hilarious. He got so mad. Check it boi!

What makes you think that Vader have never misled/fooled Palpatine?

1. What I find funny is that you sometimes use speculative assumptions like "Vitiate can use force maelstrom" or, "He may have a mysterious technique to undermine his opponent," but you ask me to give an example of an offensive ritual. Nonetheless, i'll scrounge up something. If not then you'd be being a hypocrite either way 😛
2. I understand that, however this is where we diverge. You put Revan on a much higher pedestal than I do, making Vitiate owning him more or less impressive accordingly.
3. Yeah, and that's arguably his best feat to date.
4. ok. The same can be said for Palpatine
5. Covered on 1.
6. Name a time when he has.

I have "always" asserted that Vitiate's talents have not been fully explored yet. His story leaves room for lot of exploration of his abilities in future content. Available description of the event indicates that this is a Sith Sorcery based feat. More information may come to light in future content.

It was actually a Sith Sorcery based attack:

Vitiates victory over the Strike Team is more impressive than his one against the Dark Council imo. The latter was with prep and can't be said to be something he can do in a combat situation, whereas the former can and better shows how powerful he really is in terms of personal ability.
