Testudo/Cover amplifying damage received

When Testudo (30%/50% damage reduction) is used in conjunction with Cover (intercept all physical damage to target) the damage received by the Paladin covering is amplified by 300% to 1000% of its mitigated value - 1200-1400 damage auto attacks and 2600 ability damage.
