{{Flavour| A potion which makes the drinker better at attacking unaware enemies, giving attacks against distracted, confused or otherwise unaware creatures a chance to deal increased damage as if the target were completely helpless.}}

'''Potions of stabbing''' grant your character the [[Stab (status)|Stab]] [[status effect]] for 1d40 + 34 (more) turns, up to a max of 80. This gives [[stabbing]] attacks you do against creatures that are confused, distracted, blind, etc. a chance of being upgraded to [[sleep]]-level stabs.

This potion is rather situational -- it can be a significant boon to stealthy characters or those who invest in [[Hexes]], disabling [[wand]]s, or [[summon]]ed allies, but heavily armored brutes, ranged weapon specialists, and pure mages will have few opportunities to make use of the benefits.

As [[The Shining One]] prevents you from making any stabbing attacks at all, its followers have no use for potions of stabbing. Characters that are lucky enough to have found the [[Spriggan's Knife]] can just use that, as it already provides a more reliable version of this potion's effects.
