Base Ability Damage

Base Ability Damage is the starting damage of an item ability that deals damage, before your stats are applied. Each ability has its own value, which isn't shown as a stat.¹ Intelligence and Ability Damage then multiply it:¹

Ability damage = base ability damage × (1 + Intelligence ÷ 100 × ability scaling) × (1 + Ability Damage ÷ 100)

The ability scaling is also fixed per ability; Implosion, for example, has a base of 10,000 and a scaling of 0.3.¹ Inside The Catacombs, the dungeon stat boost raises the base as well: with +400% it becomes 5 times as high.¹

Example: Implosion with 1,000 Intelligence and no Ability Damage: 10,000 × (1 + 10 × 0.3) = 40,000.

The tables below list every item that has a Base Ability Damage value.²
