Well i know very little about her. What i do know is that Mace thought her bladework surpassed his own, she was a master of Vaapad and dueled Mace but lost to him. And according to new info from Rebels
Spoiler:
she was also form 3 specialist and Kanan's Master
So that's about it, I'm sure there's more, but that's about all that I know about her.

Inquisitor made note Depa specialized in Form 3, meaning she was never a user of Vaapad in known canon.
This conclusion can be drawn because Vaapad does not even exist in canon. Mace's lightsaber style is unknown.
A good point. However, He asked what I knew of her and I responded with what little information i have of her. I wasn't trying to combine both continuities, I just responded honestly and with what little information i had. So, please don't make such assumptions. Thank you.

Aren't the novels canon though? The novels that clearly talk about Vaapad?

Sorry, but that's what we've been doing here. We do combine Legends and Canon feats.
"Sora Bulq. Depa Billaba. Jedi who have fallen to the dark. Who
have joined the Separatists, or worse: who have massacred
civilians, or even murdered their comrades."- ROTS Novel
""I have seen it in Nar Shaddaa, and I saw it on Haruun Kal. I saw what it did to Depa, and to Sora Bulq."- ROTS Novel
And even if we didn't the events of Shatterpoint still seem to be canon according to the ROTS novel.
"He lacks entirely the flash, the pure bold elan of an Anakin Skywalker; there is nowhere in him the penumbral ferocity of a Mace Windu or a Depa Billaba nor the stylish grace of a Shaak Ti or a Dooku"- ROTS Novel
This heavily implies Mace and Depa master the same form.

This is wrong though, it's not parts that agree, it's parts that don't conflict.
Vapaad was mentioned at other times IIRC, and even if not it should stand to reason that Vapaad is canon even if the fight differs, because Mace's saber style was never explained in a movie and thus has nothing to conflict with.
No, we don't combine Legends continuity into Canon. Otherwise, once Episode 7 is released, we have movie feats we would use then for FOTJ Luke Skywalker. It doesn't work like that. We won't debate for DE Luke Skywalker that he defeated "Sith Inquisitor Joe Blow in Episode 8"...they are different stories. Note that this is a Legends/Expanded Universe forum boards, where while Legends include of all known Canon stories from April 25, 2014 and before, it is not the same vice-versa. We see this also on Wookieepedia: Kanan Jarrus is not a member of the Expanded Universe continuity in any existent material or those to still come.

Fair enough with using the New canon, I was only correcting your mistake with Vapaad.
