I would not put too much emphasis on Shalltear's case because Wild Magic is  very different branch of magic than Ranked Magic that we don't know just how much it would affect Shall tear in a fight as there is too little information. She may have donned the armor because PDL has been running around and she got pissed of chasing him. It would seem she would only have the power of flight in Valkyrie form.

There is an implication that Zesshi is actually weaker than PDL or somewhat on par with him. First, if this Overlord business is the one that Nigun mentioned back when he faced Ainz, the meaning to the Overlord title Zesshi holds would mean "one who surpasses others" but we have no idea who "others" encompasses. In vol 10, those Cardinals are particularly wary that PDL would go on a rampage should he find out about their secret. If they think Zesshi can win hands down, then that scene would be weird. Zesshi may not have a high chance of winning if they do clash. There is the fact that there are several other Dragon Lords of old still around...
