Guardians' knockback is reversed when blocked by Shield

The Guardian's laser deals knockback, wich should throw the player away from the guardian, but when the player blocks the laser with a shield, they get knocked towards the guardian. This happens both in and out of water, but is more obvious on land. It is more obvious when in 3rd person.
