Yes, your base health is the amount of health that you have without any mods equipped (so 300hp at rank 30 for Valkyr). You have a rank 20 Valkyr (200 hp) with a rank 5 Vitality (+240% hp) and rank 7 Steel Fiber (+80% armor), correct? Then you have +50% armor from Warcry's base value + 30% of that 50% from Intesify.

All you have to do is input numbers:

Effective Health = Base Health * (1 + (Armor / 300))

Effective Health = 200 x (1 + (1080/300)) --> 200 x (1 + 3.6) --> 200 x 4.6 = 920 damage to kill you WITHOUT Warcry

To account for Warcry, you would do: 1080 + (50 x .3) --> 1080 + (65) [30% of 50 is 15, so 50+15=65] = 1145 armor

Then, just input numbers again:

200 x (1 + (1145/300)) --> 200 x (1 + 3.8) --> 200 x 4.8 = 960 damage to kill you

Keep in mind that that's 960 points of mitigated damage, meaning that an enemy has to attack you a lot more to deal that much damage (since each attack is being reduced).
