Has it sunk in yet?

Have the developers finally gotten that Revan has killed any fun left in the arena?
In GoH, the most powerful character ever is Revan. Was Revan more powerful than Palpatine, Vader, Kenobi, Yoda?? Since they lived in different eras, we can never actually answer that, but, since Revan isn't even canon, how can you ignore these others in favor of him? I think that most would agree that a more realistic order of power would be: Palpatine, Yoda, Vader / Kenobi, JK Luke.

ShRevan (the version of Revan in Shadow of Revan) is less powerful than prime Palpatine (he's around legends RotS Palpatine and Yoda) but more powerful than prime Vader, Kenobi (easily), and Luke. The realistic order of power (in terms of prime and canon only) would be Palpatine, Revan, Yoda, JK Luke, Vader, then Kenobi.

Your point is quite moot, as Palpatine = meta. Revan = meta. Yoda = meta. Luke = meta. Kenobi = meta.
Revan is overpowered and they are going to balance it, but using canon material as the justification for it is just poor logic, as almost all of the characters you mentioned are already meta (jedi under Revan, CLS w/ Chewie, Palpatine w/ Sith).

Revan is canon. There was an official novel about him released recentlyish.

And you are wrong. Revan isn't canon, as the "Revan" novel by Drew Karpyshyn is not canon. There is no canon novel about him; the closest Revan came to being in the new canon was when George Lucas ALMOST had him appear in The Clone Wars during the Mortis Arc.
