Shouldn't a combo shield protect you on a 'Combo Party' node?

Magrailothos

Well the title is fairly self-explanatory. The node for Combo party reads like this:


It seems pretty clear that it shouldn't trigger when you're hit, since it clearly specifies when your combo meter is lost:


I tried getting round it with Daredevil (HK) and noticed that his built-in combo meter didn't seem to save him:


I tried a different combo shield, using the Proxima/Aegon synergy, and that didn't work either:








So, what gives? Contrary to the text of Combo Party, these clearly show the buffs being lost and burst damage occurring, without the combo meter dropping. Is this a bug, or does the phrase "if their combo meter is lost" need to be removed from the node description?

In case it's not obvious, this is the burst damage (the little red numbers):
Proxima


Star Lord (SL/Aegon synergy)
