I brainfarted about Annie, tbh.
Apoc!Krayt still really shouldn't be too far from Muur.
Ulic on the other hand is within Kun's range, who's so far beyond Muur it isn't really funny.
Some members need to catch-up with the developments in SWTOR.
The Outlander is above Revan (SoR) insofar. Vitiate strengthened his connection to the Force to the extent that he intended Outlander to be his next corporeal vessel after Valkorion. This was Vitiate's end-game all along.
Vaylin destroyed an entire region in Nathema with a mere thought from outerspace. She even remarked that the damage will be visible from outerspace. Imagine that.
Vaylin also conjured a Force Maelstrom so powerful in the heat of a battle that it swiftly floored Arcann, Senya and others and was ripping the entire setting apart. The Outlander was the only individual who could take that kind of power head-on and impaled Vaylin before it was too late. Again, both Outlander and Vaylin demonstrate power beyond Revan (SoR).
And
1. Outlander is (not) a JEDI.
2. Revan (SoR) is (not) a SITH.
My general ranking list is in accordance with latest developments in SWTOR.
Also, think about Darth Malgus. He not only survived that confrontation but also the utter annihilation of the space station out in the space. One wonders what would it take to kill him. Palpatine rightfully regarded him as one of his most powerful predecessors.
Also, Palpatine learned about Force Maelstrom from Darth Malgus, a technique he later enhanced to a Force Storm.

Any statement on the backcover is OOU.OOU revelation from a source other than the author, is subjective. Specially, when consensus for it is lacking.
It's in-universe because it doesn't even know if Plagueis died or not. It's authority and knowledge stops at 32 BBY. It's clearly not written from somebody outside of the SW universe looking in, but a person within the SW universe offering commentary on its events.
Authors are also subjective, but you treat them as omniscient when they put paper to the pen and make OOU commentary. Or even IU commentary that isn't restricted to character thoughts.
Originally posted by S_W_LeGenD1. In-universe has nothing to do with the person who wrote it but rather the way in which it's written, the Darth Plagueis blurb is written from the perspective of the universe being real, therefore it's in-universe. 👆
The story is in-universe. The author is the narrator.Any statement on the backcover of a book is from the publisher. Therefore, OOU.
2. Even if that weren't the case that doesn't make it subjective or invalid, you completely made that up! 😂

A blurb is just a promotional piece of statement for a particular book or novel from the publisher. It is (not) a component of the in-universe story or lore.
From Merriam Webster: a short description that praises something (such as a book) so that people will want to buy it.
Additionally:
It's true enough that the entire blurb milieu is nepotistic and queasily promotional, a fat, slow–moving target for the various critical wags of our age. But it's equally true that blurbs are one of the few dependable ways publishers can draw attention to a particular book. Blurbs themselves might be hyperbolic, even suspect, but they are essentially a forum to champion literature and as such deserve something kinder than scorn.
