Ill let you in on a secret. Pld using Shell(30%)+Sentinal(40%) gives the pld 172% effective HP. .

1.0 - (1.0 * .3) = 0.7
0.7 - (0.7 * .4) = 0.42.

At 0.5, this is a 100% increase in effective health (Taking 50% less damage, means your current health value is effectively doubled).

Paladin using SHell + Sentinal is approximately 238% effective HP.

TBN + Wall

1.0 - (1 x .3) = 0.7. This is approximately 144% effective HP.
TBN is 20% more health.

1.44 + (1.44 x .2) = approximately 173% effective HP.

"Healing" tax

Assuming two tanks with 60k hp each.

At 238% EHP, the paladin has an effective total of 142,800
At 144% EHP, the Dark Knight has an effective total of 86,400 + 17,280 (shield)

Throwing a tank Buster that won't kill either, but still require healing: 80,000 raw damage.

Paladin EHP / HP: 62,800 / 26,386
Dark Knight EHP / HP: 23,680 / 16,444

If Magic Buster

Add approximately 16% to the Dark Knight totals for DM and another 44% if DA DM.

Also, due to the way multiplicative reductions work, even if it's the same 'total' (30 + 40, 20 + 20 + 20 + 10, 50 + 20, etc), the less chunks it comes in, the better it is. Adding up to 70% mitigation effects is less powerful than a singular 70% mitigation effect. This is why the Sentinel number seems to absurd. 40% is better than 30% + 10%, and almost better than 30% + 20%, and why Shelltron, with its ability to scale, dumpsters TBN in single hit Scenarios.

Accidentally had a * instead of / in my spreadsheet. Threw off everything. Math is hard. Deleted.
