Shielding is irrelevant, as everything within the shield is still made up of the Force... Which Vader can expertly control.
I know Sinister has uber TP -- that might be an option for him here. Vader's TP prowess, while extremely formidable, probably isn't up to par with Sinister's... Especially post-Legends.
What level of TK does Sinister possess? That is, after all, Vader's bread and butter.

He destroys Vader.

Sinister has uber TP and physical stats. He was taking the combined attacks of the X-Men (Havok, Dazzler, Ms. Marvel Rogue, Colossus, Storm) and X-Factor (Beast, Iceman, Archangel) all the while mindr@ping Jean Grey with Psylocke unable to stop him. He was fighting on two fronts (physical and mental) simultaneously. Much later it was revealed that he was just toying with them.He destroys Vader.
And people think Manchesnut Black has a chance.
he's one of marvel's top 5 psi's. i don't think vader could keep him out tp wise. to the best of my knowldege i don't recall anyone ever mindraping vader though. galan? it would be tough to put sinister down regardless, though he does have some lesser showings to suggest vader could take him out physically. he'd have a chance if he could avoid getting psionically crushed....

Absurd outlier though and not at all consistent with his later portrayals.

don't recall the writer, but i assume xavier, emma, then mix in jean/rachel/nates/quentin however you want i guess. he has def been portrayed above jean and emma though, and even hung with nate (x-man) so...top 5 is definitely where he is imo. discounting phoenixes and legions i assume. /shrug
What about Exodus (think he was mentioned around that time)? Psylocke after her upgrades? Shadow King and others?
Imo, Sinister's main attributes were his versatility and high regen, but maybe that's just me.
