Help to progress my Gemling Stat Stacker
Hello my dear fellow Exile players
I am in need of a guidance on what to improve next on my Gemling Stat Stacker. It follows Fubguns Build (https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/fubgun-attribute-stacker).
Here is my profile right now: https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/lp4id07y
I am ok with Mapping Juiced T15s as long as it is just the clearing of trash and rares mobs.
What I am struggeling is: certain map bosses with certain map attribute combinations and Trial and Sekhemas endbosses. There comes a point where I just get one shotted when the bosses get out of freezes.
My thoughts were Ingenuity Belt and then new rings with more resistances to get to 75 again. I would really love to afford 3 Grand Spectrum Sapphires to solve reststances and focus on stats...but this is at the moment a little out of my budget.
Do you guys have any guidance for me?

What level flurry are you using? I would get a low level enough one that you won't need to use inspiration with it.
Your main problem is that your DPS is way low - it's way low, because you are lacking a lot of attributes. Midterm ingenuity will help with that a lot - prioritize getting it.
Shortterm try to get better rings. One of them doesn't have any attributes.
Add stats on all your gear !! Belt / boots / rings !!
I'm not sure about atziri helmet it adds no res and no attributes, I ll go black crest
Generally, the top things that you want for a stat stacker that I don't see you having are:
- Astramentis - roughly 280 DIv so I doubt it's your next step
- Ingenuity belt - you need good rings to make this move effective
- Against the Darkness jewel - you'll want 2 stats on this which can be expensive. Also a "From Nothing" Jewel can help you get some of the nodes for less skill points. This is also an expensive jewel if you go for the same nodes that everyone else goes for (Hint you can go cheap and do some work arounds)
- Complete your 4th Ascendancy. If you can't do it yourself, you can have someone else carry you. This will open up nodes like enhanced effectiveness, which will double your inherent stat bonuses (more hp and mana)
If you are having trouble with Sekhemas, take a look at your relics and what boons/afflictions you are taking.
Here are some tips for Sekhemas:
- You want to have 75% honour resist (at base it caps at 75% max is 90% just like normal resists)
- Other important relic modifiers are: defence, max life, max honour, boss damage and max honour resist. If you are shield/evasion tanking, focus on defence relics. It will give you additional shields which will also increase your total honour.
- All the best boons are minor boons. The two top ones are generally the ones that gives 40% more damage and 40% movement. The first is obvious why it's good, but the second is important because the end boss will 1-shot you if you can't touch all of the glowing orbs.
- Avoid afflictions like the plague. You can't avoid them all, so pick and choose the least harmful. Some of the worst ones are afflictions that give additional afflictions when you do something. The randomness of them can really mess you up. nothing like losing all shields when you are a shield tank...Also, the affliction that does 5% to health when you get hit can be very bad for the end boss with their lightning attack.
- Try to choose map nodes that don't lead you to a one choice path unless you can see what is past that node. If there's only one path, then you don't get a choice if you come across an affliction.
I'd highly recommend having ice bite on tempest flurry. I see that you have flat ice dmg on your ring so as long as you can freeze reliably your boss dps will go up whenever you freeze the bell
Many of your jewels are quite dogshit. You can see it in pob - they give like 1-3% dmg, or not even that. Also, dunno if u noticed but u have faulty howa - it lost its dmg per in with corruption, yours have only 1-8 instead of 1-10. I would stick to rare belt with shitton resistance, so you can afford good rings, jewels, and then think about ingenuity. You are also seemingly skipping life, which would also give more es via atziri disdain.
Can anyone explain why people keep using charged staff? Its so useless for stat stacker... it ruins your aoe on tempest, it wastes support gems and worst of all nodes to and spirit to make it effective. Just use that spirit and everything else to go more crit or max lightning node or any real damage.
My dps shot way up after i stopped using it, clear is much faster and better now and the handling much more comfy.
