Darth C'baoth
Just wondering who she could take in a fight
Or salemate with

Darth Truculent
She took a Sith Saber in single combat, but the Saber had zero experience fighting Jedi in lightsaber combat. Especially one that is Barabel trained. Anyway, probably a rookie Jedi Knight. Hate to say it, but Ben would easily beat her.

Vorpal Ruin
Nobody went with the obvious answer? Alema Rar.

Lord Lucien
Alema RAWR.

truejedi
she is better than Rar. in LOTF,she has taken out mulitiple mando's in a single fight. probably she and Jaden Korr are about the same....

Didn't Alema and Leia fight and stalemate in LOTF?

Arhael
Twin of the most powerful jedi in EU + wise and pure heart. She is not very skilled yet but, when Luke beat Palpatine, he wasn't master either.
It is all based on circumstances. Generally, she is an average Jedi Knight stronger than other knights but yet weaker than masters, however, if it comes to protecting Alana, she would be able to take on anybody.

Rogue Gladiator
Leia should be one of the most powerful Force users in the Canon. So should Jaina, given that Luke was far more powerful than Jaina was by her age. Yet she never knocked down AT-ATs.

Star Wars is sexist.

No, it isn't.

Remember Satele Shan?

In addition, Darth Traya and Darth Nyriss are also impressive.

I seriously doubt this.

Way to prove your point there, bro.

Star Wars is massively male-oriented imo. Almost as much as it is human-oriented.

Their are many other female characters that got important roles in the Star Wars mythos.

The ones which I pointed out are among the most powerful individuals of their era, regardless of gender. Satele Shan is specially among the TOP in the whole mythos and a Jedi Grand Master nonetheless.

And we also have Abeloth, who is female? (Correct?) She is not Jedi or Sith but she is a Force-user nonetheless. And she is even stronger then Luke.

I seriously doubt this.
Don't underestimate the power of mother protecting her child...

She may give her best shot in this case but this does not guarantees victory.

Remember that Sidious overcame her when she was trying to protect her son whom the former wanted to possess.

Arhael
Remind me of that story because all I remember is that his spirit was intercepted before it could reach her. And she wasn't a Jedi at the time.

I rechecked the sources. It was not a duel in real sense. Leia ran away instead of putting up a fight.

Anyways, being a mother trying to protect the child - does not gives you unlimited power. Bad assumption on your behalf.

Arhael
Remember that one. She stole his holocron!


Self-sacrifice is the greatest power of Jedi. In Lea's case it is farther empowered by love. Yes, her power would not be unlimited but neither would be enemy's.

Good point. But this does not guarantees victory against much stronger adversaries.

Nephthys
Its possible that she could go into one of those 'One-with-the-Force' moments and become really powerful, but I doubt it.

Nephthys
i dont know what that is awesus

Darth Truculent
I would actually put Satele above most of the current knights and Masters. Nowhere near Luke 's or Kyp's power, but Kenth, Corran, Kyle and possibly Saba would get their asses handed to them in terms of power and lightsaber. Only Kyp would be familiar with the double blade due to being possessed by Exar Kun. Leah wouldn't stand a chance.

Honestly, I feel like the game makers ridiculously over-hyped her in video.
While having lightsaber struggle with Malgus, she let one hand free and toppled a tree with the Force, when for other most powerful Jedi it is problem to lift even a small stone in such situations. Logically Malgus easily could have killed her in that moment as so much of her effort was redirected elsewhere. Moreover, the only person I know capable to absorb lightsaber was Keiran Halkion and he was unable to use telekinesis, while she was comfortably executing powerful pushes strong enough to incapacitate three Sith warriors simultaneously. And with all those incredible feats Malgus disarmed her quite easily.

If comparing her to Luke's company, then she would certainly kick Kyp's and Hamner's ass but Kyle and Saba are no joke, especially in combat.
