Summoning SM focus damage shield- working as intended?

Recently got level 50 on my SM and went to do my epic quest. My level 50 spec line focus damage shield was only hitting the mob for ~60 damage (around level 60 mob), but my baseline nuke would hit for 200-300 and my pet would melee for around 100. Thinking this was just a mob specific thing, I helped my buddy do the shaman quest line and the damage shield still doing ~60 damage. Keep in mind the damage shield normally does ~200 damage to any normal mob. Also tested this on Frostra Orm in Trollheim and still was only doing about 100 damage.

I couldn't find any info on why my damage shield was so bad on high level mobs. Is this working as intended? It doesn't seem right that my baseline nuke does full damage to high level mobs, but my damage shield is extremely weak.

PS - Frostra Orm (a boss in Trollheim) did not drop feathers. Is this also correct?

I could be wrong, but I believe this is intentional on any of their mobs flagged as "bosses". These mobs don't have the attacker count mechanic so you nuke them as if they were level 50 and the same goes for resist rates, but damage shield is nerfed against them.
