Damage, healing and hate in Vanguard scale with your stats, skills and level — the figures above are the ability's own, not what a particular character will see.

Notes

Previously recorded by The Telon Project as: “Backstabs your target, inflicting 300% weapon damage plus 25 to 31” (http://thetelonproject.wikidot.com/abilities:backstab-i)

Read from the in-game tooltip in VGO Emulator. Bracketed damage figures shown in game are the skill- and level-adjusted values for that character and are not recorded here.
