Galadriel. Especially as Tolkien kept rethinking her. By the time he died he had her (I believe) as sister to Feanor. That puts her way up there among the originals, living in Valinor, learning from the Valar themselves. Elrond never came close. And even if Galadriel was not sister in the published canon, she is little lesser for all that. Oh, yes. Far and away. Elrond is in her shadow.
