Price/power (0/5): Very expensive due to it originating from the Smuggler's Cove. Very weak for how much it costs.

Tactical (0/5): Too weak to be useful, and there are better alternatives for a fraction of the cost.

Bonus (1/1): At least it's asparagus, right?

Closing remarks: The closest upgrade is the Golden Compass, which is easily affordable. For more NP, you can get a Hanso Charisma Charm, which you won't outgrow for a long time.

At a Glance (1/3):
Use this mighty, hopefully raw, asparagus sword to slice your opponent 3 icons of earth, 2 icons of light, and 1-2 icons of physical damage. Additionally, you can parry 3 icons of darkness with this!

In-Depth (0/4):
As interesting a weapon this is, its capabilities aren't up to par with the power curve. 10 icon weapons are the standard these days (example: Sun and Moon Chakram), and this item requires you to block dark AND get the higher physical hit in order to even match it. Grab Golden Compass instead if you want power and dark defense.

Price (0/2):
This item was a cove weapon, so it would be extremely unlikely to even encounter one on the market, even just to purchase for a gallery.

Bonus (1/1):
This is a WEAKER counterpart of Asparagus Dagger, a retired hidden tower weapon. You would think that this would be stronger, especially given that it is a sword, and not a dagger.

Final Score: 2/10

Price/Power (0/5)
A really bad dual duty that is for sure, give this a miss and if you own one shove it in your gallery instead.

Countermeasures (0/5)
Darkness is already easy to block, the icons it use are too. Ew.

Alternatives Upgrades or Downgrades
If you want to block dark, try a Hanso Charisma Charm. Not only does this fully block dark, but also does more damage then this sword does.

Other Points (2 Bonus)
Vegetable bonus + retired cove item

Final Thoughts
The only thigh "Mighty" about this sword is its own ego.
