The buff from Z ability on your team will be apply to all of your team with the same tag requirement and will multiply the base stats on each character. For example I have SP Purple Broly as the core then I have Shallot as the bench with 13% hp to Saiyan tag. That means if my SP Broly have 1 million base hp it will be increase to 1,13 million hp in battle. The calculation of equipment will same as Z ability if I put equipment with 3% hp to SP Broly then the hp will be increase 30k and then sum by the Z ability and base hp the SP Broly hp in the battle will be 1,16 million.
