    Sm has all the tools to beat an AT.  Bind cover, dots,slows, nuke skill when they rooted,multiple debuffs,  attck speed debuff ,etc. Resists are based on stun resistances and other shock resistances. The stun is never at 50% unless you have both Trauma plate and Stability Thrusters then its up there at 50% but to use them together is foolish vs this match up and if you do you've already lost the fight before it even started.I get almost always stunned by a geared sm. If youre not geared enough then the chances are always higher to resist more. This is normal. The match up is not impossible for us. But its hard because sms have multiple chances to stop an AT if they fail option one they have option two. The At has less options to fail or make a mistake inside the fight.

    For example we have to save our Stability Thrusters untill the sm has used shackle of vulnerability so we could remove shackle completely and often they try to cover it so we have to be very fast into dispelling it with Stability Thrusters or we end up in a very bad position. Because shackle kills our attack speed. You could see it like a second bind ,its that bad. If we get close the sm can still cast instant fear or fear shriek. And we also have to save Drillbore for command spirit shield, and thats not even their only shield. Sm Has way more options then Ats in this fight . 

    " Resists are based on stun resistances and other shock resistances."
    this is not true, aethertech has 50% passive resist to all alterated states, such as fear, silence, attack slow and bind.

    "If youre not geared enough then the chances are always higher to resist more"

    this is not true as well, gears do not give any kind of knockback or stun penetration; as long as you dont have higher magic resist than the sm's magic accuracy, gears have nothing to do with it.

    "For example we have to save our Stability Thrusters untill the sm has used shackle of vulnerability so we could remove shackle completely and often they try to cover it so we have to be very fast into dispelling it with Stability Thrusters or we end up in a very bad position. Because shackle kills our attack speed.

    it does not matter if shakle is covered, even with 50% resist to it from the passive, you have a skill to remove it; i dont get why you talk like its a nerf for at to save the skill to remove the only skill that isn't 100% resisted, it doesn't seem like a big deal to me using your 1 shot buff after silence.

    "If we get close the sm can still cast instant fear or fear shriek. And we also have to save Drillbore for command spirit shield. Sm Has way more options then Ats in this fight . "

    you have 50% passive resist to all alterated states from the mecha(on all the time), plus 50% resist for 20seconds to fear and bind from plate trigger(that cannot be dispelled). sm cannot fear at, cannot bind at, cannot shakle at, cannot use bodyguard; sm has nothing against at, in this patch, its the most unbalanced match up for sm. and even if sm manages to kite plate trigger for 20seconds, it would still be insane hard for sm to 50% proc bind on at +50% proc a fear on it. if you resist bind as an at, theres no way sm is able to cast a fear when you get close, unless you are rooted/slowed, before the cast ends you'd be already covered. 

    overall, i think you played at on notaion in 5.8(where aethertech has 20% passive resist and plate trigger is dispellable,and you are countered by sm) and you just translated the same here; because there arent many sms around. but i find very questionable a guide of someone that isn't even aware that his class has 50% resist to all the alterated states.

    can you explain me how sm is hard to beat as an at when you have 50% passive resist with range stun+sprint chain at every resist to all the silence/bind/root/attack slow+ in this patch, you have 50% undispellable fear resist buff added to 50% passive fear resist and you kill 1 sm in a cover?xd

    in future patches sm is the counter of at but i really don't see how at can lose to sm in this patch.

    also aren't ranger and especially chanter are countered by at? why are they marked as "hard"?
