I'm trying to find the base address of a value.
But it is very difficult to find the initial address because every time I change the value and have it "Next Scan", I get no results because the address changes every time the value changes.
How would I go about finding the base address when I am unable to find even an initial address since the address changes every time the value changes?

Getting no results doesn't always mean that the address changes upon value
changes. There are various reasons for that, e.g: you've targeted the wrong
process (the real process could be hidden somehow), or it could be the address
of value you searched for was somewhat encrypted.

In WarCraft 3, for example, the real resources values are multiplied by 10.
When we see 100 gold, the real value in memory is 1000. Thus initial search
for 100 and followed by filtering for its exact value, won't give any result.

So, you're right already: to find the base address requires us to obtain the
real working address beforehand...
