Dodge Punishment?

I've recently noticed that my bots are taking random amounts of damage each time they dodge in any direction. It's only about 30 to 50 per sidestep but I'm a shifty player so this small damage adds up fast.
Is this some kind of mastery thing because I only notice it in the arena and raids?

Whenever I dodge a red number of damage appears over my character just like bleed or shock damage numbers look like. I know it's not any debuff because I was against G1 Optimus Prime and he never hit me during the fight. He had the block proficiency mod.
Does this happen often, or was it just this one time? If it's more often, can you let me know which modes this occurs in, and who you're using in those fights?
So far I've only noticed in in events that involve other player's bots and not in story missions or daily. The most recent was in a raid against a G1 Optimus Prime that had the Strange Reflector mod. I can't remember if I was using either Shockwave or Ironhide. It's happened before but I don't recall any specifics of previous occasions.
The damage was labeled in the same red text as bleed and shock damage. Since G1 Optimus only adds bleed on critical hits against broken armor, that couldn't had been it. I kind of ignored it at first, but my health bar was dropping even though I hadn't taken any hits. It was about then I started paying attention to the numbers when I sidestepped.
I've been actively raiding still, but I have not seen the damage anymore. Because of that, I think it's a glitch instead of a mastery that I wasn't aware of. I do appreciate your concern and interest in the occurrence. I'll be sure to give more information if I see it happen again.
That could be it, assuming you were throwing a punch right after a sidestep
Oh shoot, that may be it. I didn't punch him but I was firing shots between dodges that he blocked some of. Perhaps the glitch is that the ranged attacks were being read as melee?
Hmm, that's possible. I'll ask the team to look into this!
So both melee are ranged attacks are "making contact"? 10.6% at sig level 5 for my 3 star, and 17% at sig level 15 for my 2 star, feels a lot.
Wow that happened similar to me on raids yesterday. I used Soundwave against MV1 Optimus Prime with Strange Refractor. When I shoot ranged attacks, I got damage on my with red numbers around 250.
Never happened like that before...
