I thought Ultimate SW was just apart of the new canon? It only covers canon material from what I've read, except maybe the Plaguies novel.
The Story Group is after all managing SWTOR, I assume they are doing so for a reason.

For whatever its worth, from the Ultimate Star Wars:The full power of the light side and dark side of the Force are on display during Yoda's clash with Emperor Palpatine. Outmatched, Yoda retreats and waits for a new champion to lead the fight against evil.
B/W If this is how the new canon going to expand then it is waste of time and effort. Canon books should have appropriate checks and balances to ensure continuity compliance.
Anyways:
A tremor rippled through the air as the Emperor unleashed the full power of the Force against the defenseless droid.
T3 never stood a chance. The little droid exploded into a million pieces, internal circuits and external casing obliterated in a single instant.

Meh, I would interpret it as hyperbole if it didn't already correlate with what's been said:
Source: Jedi BattlesWhen the most powerful Jedi battled against the most powerful Sith, the two sides of the Force clashed in spectacular style.
Source: The Complete Star Wars EncyclopediaStatement like that need to be dealt with on a case by case basis silly.Inside the spacious interior of the Galactic Senate chamber, Yoda challenged the Emperor. The two engaged in a spectacular duel—a contest between the most powerful practitioners of the Force’s light and dark sides.
Anyway, irrespective of how you may believe it relates to Legends, it's at the very least proof that Sidious' most powerful accolades have not been brought into question by new continuity.

Nah, Kun is up there. Higher than Vader and Krayt imo.
Krayt, Kun and Plagueis certainly make up the tier below Sidious and Vitiate, I would argue Revan and Caedus joins them. Vader is getting more and more impressive but he has yet to display that one big powerhouse feat that I tend to look for to undoubtedly separate him from the likes of Ulic and Malgus.
