The potion of gain ability is a potion in NetHack that can increase your attributes.
Generation
Dipping a potion of gain energy or potion of gain level into a potion of full healing will produce a diluted potion of gain ability.
Effects
Quaffing an uncursed potion increases a random attribute by one point; quaffing a blessed potion will increase all attributes by one point. Quaffing a cursed potion, or else quaffing a noncursed one while wearing a ring of sustain ability, has no effect, and the potion will not be identified.
Note that the uncursed potion will try only 6 times to find an attribute that isn't already at its maximum. If all six fail, it will just try and fail to raise the maxed stat, with no further effect.
