The Dark Secret of Symbiote Difficulty
I had an epiphany. After seeing so many clueless people complain that Symbiote difficulty was a "cash grab" or "impossible" and then seeing the volume of reasoned and rational responses explaining just how easy it actually was (it was literally easier than Gwenpool goes to the movies), I realized that developers created this event as 2 things:
1. A reward for players that are willing to pay attention and develop strategies and read in game text and weigh their options before rushing in.
2. A punishment/tax/troll on players that don't pay attention and who are generally unthinking and solve problems by throwing money at them.
