A potion of water is, as one would expect, water. The Guidebook states that every clear potion is a potion of water. Thus water is the one type of potion that you can identify by appearance. (No one expects water to be red or smoky.) By itself, a potion of water is not very useful. However, praying at an altar transforms it into either holy water or unholy water, which you can use to adjust the BUC status of objects. Uncursed potions of water have a base price of 0; they are commonly sold for about 5 Zorkmid. Blessed or cursed potions of water have a base price of 100.

- Potions of water are potions that have no effect when drunk in uncursed form. Their main use is to be blessed (by dropping on a coaligned altar while having a certain amount of piety), then dipping items into them. When an item is dipped into a blessed potion of water (called a "potion of holy water" in-game), it will become blessed, with a few exceptions (Moon sickle, and other artifacts containing the essence of Chaos and Corruption, will turn the potion of water into a potion of raw chaos instead).

| Desirability
| - They are extremely useful to all players since the usage of many items multiplies if they are blessed — for instance, a blessed potion of gain attributes will provide a +1 raise to all stats instead of just one. Blessing cursed items also removes the curse.
While uncursed water rarely finds any use , some players hold on to any unholy water they can find, in order to obtain cursed potions of invisibility, which act as potions of blindness, or cursed scrolls of repair.

| Description
| - Potions of water are potions that have no effect when drunk in uncursed form. Their main use is to be blessed , then dipping items into them.
When an item is dipped into a blessed potion of water , it will become blessed, with a few exceptions .
When a scroll is dipped into an uncursed potion of water, the text will be wiped of it thus creating a blank scroll. Dipping an iron item into an uncursed potion will rust it, unless it is rustproof. Items dipped into a cursed potion can be used to curse items.
Potions of water can have their B/U/C status changed by altars — holy water may be generated by placing potions of water on a friendly altar, and unholy water may be generated by placing potions of water on an unfriendly altar. Furthermore, potions of water will injure iron golems and undead, if they are thrown at them. In case of undead message is "X seems to be burned by the liquid" and undead seems to be damaged for approximately 20 points of damage.
The PC can also drink holy water in order to gain the blessed status .
