To explain further, I see a similarity between the Wrath and Maul on a basis of accolades and feats.
Maul has his "one of the most deadly warriors in Sith history" accolade, and his variety of other accolades denoting his power and training. Maul has no issue army busting, evident in his dismantling of Black Sun, and has taken down esteemed masters of the Jedi Order like Anoon Bondara and Qui Gon Jinn. Stomping the likes of Komari Vosa isn't bad either.
On the other side of the coin, the Wrath had "unrivaled strength in battle" before arriving at the Korriban Academy, and he was deemed one of, if not the, strongest acolytes there and the end of his trials. The Wrath is described to be strong in the Force and the dark side by numerous characters throughout the story, and it is stated in the codex that he was chosen out of millions of candidates to become the Emperor's Wrath, which while this may not be entirely based on his power, is still logically decided with power as a factor.
The Wrath has his own feats of army busting, like:
*Killing General Rylon's elite soldiers in the Arms factory on Balmorra
*Slaughtering his way through House Organa's defenses
*Cutting swathes through the Republic's finest on his quest to kill the war trust generals
*Killing the Gormak Chiefs on Voss
And the Wrath has his own set impressive kills against both jedi and sith, like:
*Single-handedly killing Masters Yonlach and Yul-Li
*Defeating Nomen Karr multiple times, and then effectively stomping Jaesa
*Killing Xerender and Wylett
*Killing 2 Dark Council members (with assistance, however meager), Vengean and Ekkege
* Killing Baras
*Killing the Sel-Makor possessed Emperor's Voice
They're also both combatants who specialize more in sabers than in force, but are still strong telekinetics. So Wrath level isn't bad at all I would say.
