How to set IRs sound chains and DAWs/Host?

Hello. I did a quick search about the topic on the title but the search engine gave me mixed results. I have watched some YouTube videos about loading some WAVE IRs on helix native and the presenters were keeping the stock amp/cabs before the IR. So, some questions came to my mind. An IR can be define in many ways, but they  are like an EQ trying to emulate the response for certain impulse you put as a sound wave. Hence, why should we add some "amp" "preamps" "cabinets" or "combo" before the IRs, if these ones are already doing the job. The other question is, I am using Gig performer. I have like 3 different chains with different plugins, one only for electric guitar (with helix native) one for acoustic emulation and a last one for MIDI Guitar with kontack samples. All of these goes to a common IR in the end of the chain, with another plugin working as IR loader. This means, i am not really using the IR module on Native (but i have the stock amps loaded on native) so i would assume this would affect the final sound, as my understanding is, i am affecting the chain by placing the IR after the reverbs, delays, and EQs on native. So i would say this is not the right approach. Can anybody please give me or guide me on the best way for a "live" performance approach? Thanks
