Do you have any full pictures of Gem's Amethyst Staff design? I've been trying to go off screenshots of it in her hand and/or the mini image for it when it's in an inventory and it's been a bit hard to see the full thing & its size in relation to the wielder
this post has some relatively complete shots of her staff!
