Dota – Does Quelling Blade bonus apply to base damage or total damage

dota-2

Is it based off the damage you get from scaling with your attribute, or is the extra damage from other items also included in the calculation?

Best Answer

Quelling Blade's bonus damage is calculated from your total damage, which is your base damage + stat based damage + any damage items. In DotA 1, Quelling Blade's bonus damage was a Unique Attack Modifier, so it had varying interactions with other UAM items such as Diffusal Blade/Desolator. In DotA2, this isn't the case.
