Her force powers have repelled sorcery before, easily overcoming Aleema's sorcery and invading her mind in turn.
That's actually one of the areas where I'd think you'd least want to take her on. Nomi should be a pretty good counter to Zannah.

Sure, but Nomi >>>>>>>> Aleema.
Nomi's a massively powerful force user, strong in the force than the likes of Vodo and Thon and Arca Jeth, all legends of the time, and even into the Clone Wars era her name is tossed around as one of the most powerful ever (the fallen Hutt Jedi named her, Thon, and Yoda as three of the greatest).
The fact that her specific abilities- battle meditation and wall of light- are good for repulsing sorcery means even if you put them at equal ability, she should have the rock-paper-scissor advantage.

Right.... but they're not on equal ability. Zannah is firmly above Nomi. You can be one of the most powerful of all time and still be outclassed. And I'm not sure her power is strong against sorcery so much as it is an effective counter. Calling it a rock-paper-scissors advantage is something that I don't feel has been established.

Based on what?
Zannah's strong, but Nomi's really strong too. Zannah's sorcery has been resisted without abilities noted to specifically repel darkness.
Nomi was able to channel the might of the entire Jedi order, that's a rather major feat.
And severe force, I'll note how it took an entire group of masters to do it on Revan, but she was able to do it on Ulic solo.
If Nomi has a weakness, it's in relative lack of duel feats. In force, though, she's quite impressive.

These type of abilities allowed the illusions of Naga Sadow with sith sphere boost to be broken sans boost.
That establishes it fairly well to me.
TrocityThe strongest Sith do seem to outclass the strongest Jedi, with some exceptions.
Even the strongest sith normally have Jedi that rival them in their times, with rare exceptions.

Zannah is Bane's equal, in power and ability. Nomi doesn't really compare favorably to those two. Bane HAD been expecting Zannah's attack and researched how best to resist it too btw.
And as a child Zannah survived an attack composed of the power of the BoD, which kind of puts things into perspective IMO.
An unresisting Ulic, sure.
Meh. She's not in the top tiers imo.

I thought it was the illusions of Aleema Keto? If someone beats the abilities of another, it might just mean that person is more powerful, not that their technique was super effective.
I think 'can channel the entire order's power,' puts her up there.
At least in raw force omph I'd think she'd be at a rather high tier indeed.

I mean, the technique of a weaker Jedi than Nomi, Odan-Urr, beat Sadow's boosted illusions.
Which suggest to me that the technique plays a large role.
If Odan-Urr's powers > Sadow's sorcery from the meditation sphere, then Nomi's use of the same powers should trump practically anyone's sorcery.
