Bulwark - CP slottable passive

The 1900 bonus to armor while equipping a shield does not increase bash damage by the 0.022446% resistance coefficient that it should normally do with any other source of bonus to armor. There should be atleast a baseline increase of 42 bash damage (before % based modifiers) by equipping this passive, however by testing it on dummies I've found this to be not working in that regard. The damage of bash stays the same as if the passive wasn't slotted at all.

Maybe there is a hidden cap of bonus bash damage sourced solely from resistances? If so, can we get some information about that?

If this passive is working as intended, then please update the description to indicate it only works for mitigation purposes.

    Update:

    After further testing with armor potions, can confirm it's not an issue of capped damage source from armor, but a lack of bash damage bonus that should come with the resistance increase of this passive - thus either the description or the mechanic needs fixing.

    Update 2:

    Cutting defense (CP slottable) also doesn't seem to benefit from the resistance bonus of this passive, even tho it's damage tooltip is increased, the actual damage (tested on mobs) stays the same, just like bash.
    As per testing, the damage mitigation part of the resistance bonus is working correctly, but other damage sources that derive their damage from resistances do not seem to benefit from the bonus of this slottable.
