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.
Sinister is a damn beast and I was going to say he stomps, but then I realized this says "Marvel" Vader and I have no idea how strong he is supposed to be.

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.

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....
If we're just talking post-Legends, then Vader hasn't been mind-phucked yet. If we're talking ALL canon, then yes, Palpatine himself mind-phucked Vader back in the SotE novelization.
Not to mention being STUPENDOUSLY durable. Here he is laughing off a bloodlusted Havok, he even has his back turned to him : (please log in to view the image)

If he can regen at the atomic level he can resist Vader's TK, and Vader has strong willpower but if we're applying TP resistance to comics it comes down to TP resistance feats as opposed to willpower like in SW debates. Essex mindrapes him and gets a new henchmen.

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
