LOTF Luke? Sidious wouldn't solo. In fact, I could see Luke winning with mild difficulty, against him. This is a version of Luke who has an added 30 years of training, experience, and improvement over his DE version. Adding Caedus into the mix, though, moves the team into the Win column.

With no plot interference, and if Caedus was not injured prior to his fight with Luke how close would they be in terms of power compared to one another?Would Luke have walked out of there alive still? Would it be a double kill, I'm just very curious how a no plot weakened Caedus ranks up to Luke.
Not close. In the other encounter between the two, Jacen was expecting Luke to confront him, was prepared to fight him, and use booby-traps he had in place, and Luke still picked Jacen up, threw him across the room and kept him from moving a muscle throughout their conversation, and after Luke had left the room. It was impressive.
In their second encounter, Jacen was verbally warned (stupid Ben) that Luke was right behind him, and just didn't turn around. His own stupidity. Luke also had him trapped and was about to kill him BEFORE taking all the damage that Jacen dealt him in that duel, but his fear that Ben was about to fall to the dark-side delayed his final attack until Jacen broke free, leading to renewed hostilities.
Jacen's most impressive win was against Mara Jade. In his encounter with her, he was beaten, struggling, underneath her and losing, until he surprised her with his third hand and stabbed her with a dart. Jacen was powerful, but not at the Luke/Sidious level. His main claim to fame is his ability to take a lot of damage and just keep coming.
