Open world combat literally does not matter. Either its a fate and you will have targets to hit or its trash and you'll kill them just as quick with or without enshroud.

Why on earth are you using your 2 minute buff 5 seconds before a boss jumps? Like, sure its going to suck in prog when it happens but that's one time, ever, and then you know not to 2 minute buff there just like everyone else. This sounds like a massive mountain out of the smallest molehill imaginable.
