yeah me AGAIN! Anyway my question is, for Shrouding it says you get stealth if you are not in cover you get a 6+, but seeing that you have a 6+ cover would stealth confer to this granting you a 5+ cover save??

Normally Stealth, in the open, gives you no benefit. Shrouding gives you a 6+ when normally you would have none, and it states that you get this "instead" - which in context is instead of the Stealth rule

If I understand you correctly, no.

If you are already in cover, Stealth will give you +1 to your cover save (usually making it a 3+). Shrouding grants you Stealth so it works exactly the same way.

If you are in open terrain with no cover save, Shrouding gives you a special 6+ cover save that you would not ordinarily be allowed to take. (This does not benefit twice from Stealth and become a 5+ if that's what you're asking.)

DoW

OK thanks for the clear up

however, GKs in the open could Go to Ground for a 5+ in the open(6+ normally plus Stealth)
