Trivia

- There are a few Midas' Swords with price paid values not possible through the Dark Auction.
- This sword is a reference to King Midas, a figure from Greek mythology. He was granted one wish and to pick to turn everything he touched to gold. When he killed his daughter by turning her to gold, he realized he had been blinded by greed, which this sword's ability references.
- The Midas Staff and King Midas miniboss also reference him.
- The Gilded reforge can be applied to this sword using a Midas Jewel, increasing its ❁ Damage and ❁ Strength, and granting it a small chance to grant coins to nearby players upon killing mobs.
