The last time I had to do Glasya's platforms was back in the mid-patch release for HW - and Scylla's daybreak hasn't done more than tickled since then either. By comparison the HW's raids have aged a lot more gracefully. They're a lot easier now but it doesn't feel like you're skipping 90% of the fight. I'm just not sure /why/ that is though. If it's a tuning issue or just a back door coding issue.
It's definitely the types of pay-attention-mechanics, and cleaves/boss-positioning. PPL, like, still wipe to the zombie-puddle and death mechanics in the second boss and a lot of similar mechanics are used in the Ivalice raids as well
