The Fact that she has beaten Traya(herself a skilled duelist), who is more powerful than the Exile, on a collosal geyser of the Dark Side, after cutting through an army, through her superior dueling Skills.

Originally posted by UrsumelesPre-prime isn't really relevant when it's this late in Vader's career. At this point he's still far more powerful than the majority of Force users ever manage to become. So Galen's outright defeat of Vader is still better than anything Meetra has performed. So driving Palpatine to desperation, as stated in the novel, isn't contending? I mean yeah Sidious is easily superior to Galen, but he DID contend for a time that's not really up for debate. Of course Syndi could tell you more about that than I can. Galen's feats are outright superior to Meetra's, she doesn't really compare at all.
Pre-prime Vader, and he didn't really contended with Palpatine at all :/
It also was more meant as a joke, but I can see an strong argument being made for the Exile.

That isn't more impressive than Galen Marek holding his own Shaak Ti, considerably pre-prime, after slaughtering numbers of Force sensitive natives trained by Ti herself, killing rancors and having to deflect attacks from the flaura Shaak controlled.
Also isn't better than stalemating Darth Vader.
