Very good question, I hope you get an answer on this as I would also be interested in the answer. ??

In Royal Guard's case, mod him with Health primaries on the circle and cross, as he doubles his health from his unique BEFORE LV's lead merges his H and P.

There is other stuff to.Sometimes leads apply after uniques and can compound them other times it only applies to before battle stat.So the only true answer is go test it

Mods will always apply before Uniques and Leads. As for those two… I’m honestly not sure. My gut says Lead, then go down the line for each unit’s Unique, but that’s mostly a guess.

Yep, unique applies before lead.

While on this topic, does anyone know if the +30% health on LV lead applies before or after his leadership converts protection to health?

Reading through swgoh.gg it seems like the +30% happens first. (As does the Mastery increase, if that matters.)

Interesting. Guess it wont matter as much whether you pick health or protection primaries then (Aside from LV and RG due to their uniques).

In general, the start of battle order of operations is:

Mods affect stats
Enemy Uniques in order of placement
Player Uniques in order of placement
Player's lead
Enemy's Lead

BUT there are some exceptions to this so it's best to look at all interactions individually and test to confirm.

Hermit Yoda is my go-to for testing stat shares because you can use his heal to calculate in battle Health & Protection.
