Enemy attack appear earlier than it's animation.

I am talking about the new humanoid enemy with yellow beam short range attack.(new one, from episode 4, pre-last island, but happenednoticed the problem from the t15 map) It's animation with prolongued hand only begins, but damage starts to apply already. I was running with low hp character and just died before the animation of the actual beam had place. Next time I got to this the same enemy again and tested it once more- it really attacks from maybe first frame, when the actual beam starts only maybe 1-2 seconds after the start of animation.
