That's how it CAN work. It doesn't have to be like that. If the fight is just a (relatively) unimportant obstacle then one roll is likely to be it. If it is a major confrontation then it will be a lot more. You don't consider the type of contest to determine how much detail to go into. You consider it's importance to the story, and how much fun it will be to play out in detail.

It seems to me if combats are just one roll for the party and another for the foe (with everyone adding in abilities) then that is not going to be very satisfying.
