Darth Maul's Equal in the SWTOR Era?

Maybe Marr, probably Baras at his peak.

Deceived Malgus, probably.

Meh, Wrath > Maul.

KotFE HoTlander / Wrathlander; probably.

LMFAO.

Most probably Vemrin.

ILS and AZ also made some very good arguments there

That's unfortunate Skillz

Given Wrath's own insane feats against some pretty incredibly Force users, Maul's really not all that special in comparison.

Maul's more powerful than a dude who can deadlift freighters, what does wrath have that makes him so special?

Killing a guy who was powerful enough to make the DC believe that he's the Voice of the Emperor. Like who could actually give a shit about ship TK feats.

The Voice of the Emperor weilds his power, meaning Baras was powerful enough that they strongly considered the idea that he was actually him using Baras as a Voice.

The Emperor regularly shits on people who can lift ships.

Simply put, this backscaling you're trying to give Baras from the emperor is going to get you nowhere because it's

Vague and unquantifiably impressive

The Voice wields his full power, not a small fraction. Kek.

The DC is also fully aware of the Emperor's power:

During a violent tempest, Darth Lokess called a secret meeting of her eleven fellow Dark Council members. Under the cover of night, the Dark Council met and heard Darth Lokess describe a brilliant and daring plan to overthrow the Sith Emperor, end his relentless exile, and lead the Empire back to war against the Republic. An army of Sith under the command of Darth Lokess were stationed outside the meeting, ready to slay any Dark Council member who refused. But they all agreed to depose the Emperor.

It remains a mystery how the Emperor learned of his council's treachery. He allowed their plan to play out, but when they gathered to confront the Emperor, his punishment was swift and devastating. Eleven members of the Dark Council died in a sudden flash on the steps of the Citadel. The last member Darth Lokess, disappeared forever, though for some centuries some claimed her screams could be heard from the bowels of the Citadel.

A new council was immediately appointed to replace the traitors. The Emperor had made his point: his will was absolute, and none would oppose him. And though this was not the last time the council would defy the Emperor, his lesson would humble the Empire and its Sith leaders for centuries to come.

From (Star Wars: The Old Republic: Encyclopedia)

For generations, the Emperor would remain withdrawn from society. When he finally appeared, the Emperor spoke only to the Dark Council, reducing the most powerful Sith in the Empire to trembling sycophants in his presence.
