Burn damage spam overhead sometimes orange, sometimes gray

Usually the numbers flying up from enemies in my Burn patch are orange, but sometimes they are gray. Even when I cast Burn the moment it recharges from an orange-number episode, it will still do gray occasionally. I am soloing, inside an instanced mission, without any NPC allies, so I know it's not someone else's numbers. But the numbers are gray just as if they were someone else's damage.

I know Burn's a pseudo-pet, and I assume sometimes the server might lose track of who cast it? I can't say with absolute confidence if I am getting exp/rewards for the gray damage kills, but I think I am.

Seems to happen with all psuedo-pets occassionally, happens in my Ice Mastery AoE, I'm pretty confident that you still get xp for the kills.
