Assuming Maul could withstand Nox's TP, FLS and Force Drain, which he can't.
Starkiller does far better but I am not convinced he could overcome the combined powers Nox has. I mean do remember Nox gets stronger after Act 3. Growing closer to immortality in SoR and refining their powers considerably.

Not at all. Nox is more powerful than Maul, but not by enough of a margin to outright dominate him, and he's extremely resilient as well. He's more skilled with a blade and he can kill her with that, provided she can die that way. With the right application of powers (Drain/Lightning spam etc.), she might get past him, though.
Starkiller is just more powerful than Nox is. There's no way Nox can outmatch Starkiller's TK or Lightning, and his Barrier is probably sufficient to repel anything Nox sends at him. Starkiller's dueling edge just adds insult to injury. Nox is virtually outclassed there.

Starkiller has absolutely zero experience with Sorcery and has no counter for it, she can mindrape and drain him to death, not to mention teleport at will. Even if he does considerable damage Nox's ghosts can revitalize her and her defenses are extremely advanced to boot.
Nox is also a highly skilled duelist, contrary to popular belief inquisitors don't abandon lightsaber skill, they master those arts as well. She should certainly be skilled enough not to get eviscerated as you assume.
All of which is irrelevant when we have someone capable of withstanding Dread Masters, etc.

Show me Nox mindraping anybody of Starkiller's class in battle, and lol @ her Draining a more powerful character to death.
Show me Nox being able to just call upon her Ghosts at any time to recover from fatal injuries. That's a No Limits Fallacy taken to space, lol.
Nobody said Nox would get eviscerated in sabers or that she abandons saber combat, so that's a red herring, and regardless of her skill level (of which I'm perfectly aware), she's still not up to par with Starkiller.

Since when did raw power define mental defense? Starkiller is filled to the brim with negative thoughts and nightmares, making him prime real estate for someone who could withstand and overcome the combined telepathic assault of five Dread Masters.
When she clearly summons them to overcome Thanaton's FLS assault and then dominates him? That was fairly obvious tbh, the Mother Machine arc was all about gaining total control over her own mind and dominating the spirits with her willpower (Just happens to be another TP feat).
Being a master of the saberstaff and logically defensive techniques at least should afford her time to press a Force contest or teleport away.

The two most powerful of the TOR era whom can both eliminate her host advantage. Not to mention she isn't an imbecile, she is a calculatingly intelligent Dark Councillor of course she wouldn't take on two obscenely powerful Force Users solo.
