Highest base damage spell?

So i was browsing through LOL wikia and noticed that Skarner ult, if used in optimal circumstances, can deal 700 base damage. This look insanely high for base damage, and so far in my browsing i have found another champion with higher base damage on a spell that's not DOT (ala Tibber aura, Fiddle ult or Kat). So is it true that Skarner 700 base damage ult is the highest non DoT base damage spell in the game?

Not quite.

Sion R: Unstoppable Onslaught Maximum damage: 900 +0,8 bonus AD physical damage

Pantheon R: Grand Skyfall Maximum damage: 1000 +1.0 AP magic damage

Nunu R: Absolute Zero Maximum damage: 1125 +2.5 AP magic damage

I think Vel'Koz also has like 900 on his ultimate, but didn't bother checking.

One thing to keep in mind is that is a single target ability. Meaning even if it has a really high base damage, it is only going to be 700 damage. Compare that to an AOE Ultimate like Gragas, Oriana, or Sejuani and if they hit 2 or more enemies, they effectively do more damage than Skarner's ult.
