Well, marginally useful. There aren't too many heavily physical resistant enemies that are worth troubling yourself over with it.

I moronically purchased the Ghost Sword, but it was a very tough fight early in the game, so every bit helps.

I'm not sure if say a 10% reduction in physical resistance (if one were to use the sword against a black dragon) truly amounts to merely a 10% bonus in damage or a 11% bonus in damage. Either way, surely you can find a weapon that will have more utility.

Most of the human team and cyclops are the only worthy "physical resistant" enemies in my opinion.

And there are just so many better options to deal with them.

Yes, thorns have a very low attack rating. It seems very hard to raise it to the minimum "60" mark to converge to your optimal damage rating.
