I don't read fantasy stuff but I need a gift idea for my mom. She really likes the kingkiller and the witcher series and was wondering if mistborn was anything she might like too or is it too overly complicated/nerdy
thanks bros

Mistborn or Stormlight from Sanderson are both good choices.
Could also do ASoIaF (hiatus), Gentleman Bastards (hiatus), Wheel of Time, Farseer trilogy, LotR (if she doesn't have it already), Earthsea, or Lightbringer. There's tons more but that's just off the top of my head.
Also, I listed the hiatus stuff only because she's a fan of Kingkiller which is also on hiatus, so she probably won't mind too much, plus people really like those books.
I've read all of those and they're all stuff that is both very popular and not grimdark (brutally violent and/or depressing) so it's fine for most moms nor is it too nerdy/complicated/weird for casual fantasy readers.
Could also do Discworld if you want something that's got a fair bit of comedy while still being in a fantasy setting.
