Galen wins Force barely, gets utterly outclassed in sabers only, and the same goes for all out, though Galen will put up resistance with the Force at times

One of the greatest PT swordsmasters amped by the planet and with the flora and fauna at her command > Nyriss defeating Shit!Meetra and Struggles-With-Battle-Droids!Scourge, especially off of Dromund Kaas.
At this point Marek is also already destroying thousands of technobeasts and blowing open rancor skulls with a TK. And not long after casually one-shotted an AT-AT with his Force lightning.

So much wrong that if I started, It'd need to be numerous parts to explain to you how mind bogglingly uninformed that claim is. Instead I'll keep it short.
Shaak changed the planet's alignment with her presence, something the TFU sourcebook states any moderately strong Force user can do. She didn't amp herself with said presence, nor is that ever implied to be the case.
Meetra fought somebody much stronger than Shaak Ti in Darth Traya and defeated her in a far more detrimental situation. Meetra was losing to Darth Nyriss because her Force augmentation wasn't at full and Nyriss physically overwhelmed her in turn.
Lord Scourge weakened himself in the fight, in a similar way to Darth Nihilus, by attempting to draw emotions externally. The droids he faced obviously aren't providing anything, Darth Nyriss corrects his mistake following that and teaches him to draw internally as well.
Nyriss casually charred her (presumably armoured) guards to husks with a single burst, and had storms potent enough to smash the barrier of and ash genuine powerhouses. Unless Marek is ashing Shaak Ti, Kazdan Paratus or Rahm Kota with his lightning, color me unconvinced.

It states she shifted the planet out of balance. While I don't deny the guide indicates strong force users are able to change the alignment of Felucia we know for a fact that Galen's ability to draw on the dark side was weakened by what Shaak did to the planet.
I don't view Traya as being far more powerful then Shaak given their respective feats. Traya's best is draining 3 council members while Shaak was capable of influencing the native flora and sarlaac in her fight with Galen along with being able to affect him with several of her force attacks. Given Galen's force feats by this time I don't see the disparity between Traya and Shaak being all that large. Regardless there were numerous disadvantages Galen had in his fight with Shaak not only his connection to the Force being weakened but having had to fight through an army of Force users beforehand and then facing an opponent who used Felucia's environment and native species against him during their fight.
I'm pretty sure powering the hyperdrive of a ship enormous enough to take Galen hours to get around even with his enhanced speed is better then Nyriss's own lightning feat.
By powerscaling, from getting oneshotted by Revan, Nyriss is destroyed.
TFU Shaak Ti faced a fatigued Galen with environmental advantages, and why are we assuming her to be weak? She's less known than Galen; it makes more sense to scale her off him rather than the reverse.
