The "My Little Symbiote" Event

Free To A Good Home: Your very own Symbioid to raise, train, and send into battle! Well, it’s not your own… technically.

A group of intelligent Symbioids have been found in the Battlerealm! Unlike their more feral and brutish brethren, these Symbioids have developed a unique Universal class, and will obey the Summoner! You are being entrusted with the responsibility to care for one of these Symbioids (temporarily), and to harness their strength to overtake a new, even more challenging level of Difficulty that will make an appearance in the Contest this month!

Introducing to you, your own Summoned Symbiote!

That’s right Summoner, for a limited time only, we’re giving you all your own Symbioid! On October 2nd at 10:00 am PST, you’ll receive an in-game message that contains a 1-Star Summoned Symbioid! He may not sound tough, but with some love and care, this Symbioid will give you the power to take on some of the hardest temporary content that The Battlerealm has ever seen!

Throughout the Month, you’ll be earning Klyntar Katalysts and Strands. You’ll find the Katalysts in the new Blood and Venom: Symbiomancer Event Quest, and you’ll find Strands in the Blood and Venom: Symbiomancer Event Quest, and the special Occult Lab Event Quests. More Details on both of these to come soon!

Regular ISO-8 and Catalysts have no effect on the Symbioids, but you can use the Klyntar Katalysts to significantly boost the power of your Summoned Symbioid, But that’s not all! Utilize the Strands you collect to purchase Symbiotic Enhancements! Symbiotic Enhancements are Boosts that can only be applied to the Summoned Symbioid, and will only work in the Event Quest!

Utilizing Katalysts and Symbiotic Enhancements as best you can, the Summoned Symbioid may just be what you need to take on a Difficulty Level higher than you are used to! Speaking of which...

Another Level of Challenge!

Once you and your guest have had some time to become accustomed to each other, you’ll be given the opportunity to take on a new, more challenging Difficulty Level of the Blood and Venom: Symbiomancer Event Quest!

Introducing: Symbiote Difficulty! Symbiote Difficulty is a brand new Difficulty Level that will become available on October 17th! This difficulty level goes beyond what you’re used to in Master or Uncollected Difficulty level, but your new Symbiote friend may be up to the task if you’ve taken the time to fully invest in Klyntar Katalysts and Strands!

Heed our warning, Summoners! This is not going to be Easy. Many will try, and many will fail!

Do not get attached to the Symbioid!

While you might find yourself getting attached to your guest, the Symbioid is not yours to keep! Due to their unique physiology, the Symbioid cannot stay within the Battlerealm forever! When the event ends, you’ll be able to sell your Summoned Symbioid and receive a keepsake Title in return! If you choose to hold out, the Symbioid is likely to wander off one day, never to be seen again!

Quest Difficulties this Month

More information to come soon, but this month will feature an “Epic Difficulty” in place of the Uncollected Difficulty, and will be open to players Level 40 and above. You do not have to be Uncollected to take part in this Difficulty Level. This is only for this month. Master Difficulty will also not require a Key to enter.

Klyntar Katalysts and your Symbioid

Your Summoned Symbioid can get quite Powerful through the use of Klyntar Katalysts! Unlike most 1 Star Champions, the Summoned Symbioid has the ability to go up to Rank 5. You’ll want to get them to as high a Rank as you can Manage, and might want to use them to take on Content that you’re not usually comfortable with.

100% Exploration of Epic Difficulty will give you enough Katalysts to bring the Summoned Symbioid to Rank 5. At Rank 5, the Summoned Symbioid has roughly 30% higher Stats than a 6-Star Champion, at Rank 2 Level 35! And that’s not even counting the Symbiotic Enhancements...

Symbiotic Enhancements

As we mentioned above, Symbiotic Enhancements are Boosts that can only be applied to the Summoned Symbiod, and only have an effect in the Blood and Venom: Symbiomancer Event Quest. These Enhancements are quite powerful, so use them when you’re in a tight spot, or when taking on content more difficult than you’re used to!

Beware of Alliance Wars!

The Summoned Symbioid does not like Alliance Wars, and Alliance Wars do not like him! Throughout the length of the My Little Symbiote Event, Alliance Wars will feature a Global Buff that will deter Summoners from bringing their Symbioid in as either an Attacker, or Defender. The Summoned Symbioid only like Quests!

Get ready to welcome this adorable little critter into your home next month!

EDIT: The Costs for the Symbiotic Enhancements was incorrect. We've corrected the prices listed above to reflect costs in game.

Is it a Symbiote Howard we getting?

Alex_sc11

I want to take mine to the beach, take care of him when he gets sick after fighting in the rain in the Savage Land stage, or go out and play fetch, grow old together.

And one day... some time from now, see how the Symbioid isn't walking or playing like it should, his long mostly wet and vivid tongue is now tired and dry, he gets tired easily.....

I go put up a support ticket and they just tell me to put it to sleep, and I just can't.... eyes watering, memories flowing..,..

Am I missing something here. The way I read it is that the Sym is to help beat content we normally wouldn't attempt, but to max the Sym we have to beat the hardest temporary content youve ever produced. Where's the sense in that?

They way I understood it, is that there will be beginner, heroic, master and epic (which is uncollected). Those are the basic difficulties we always had. Then later, there will be Symbiote difficulty, which is the harder one and you should be able to have your symbiote pet up to R5 by then.

Hyperion

You are quite right. Thanks for the correction.

I have 4 questions

1. Is there a chance that if this is very successful in MCOC, then the my little symbiote will become permanent? Maybe you can make it where people can buy it permanently with units or real money, or make a crystal for it, like a really high chance for 1 star, medium chance for 2 star, smaller chance for 3 and 4 star, or 0.01 chance for 5 star.

2. So we have to sell it for a title at the end, or all of our hard work will be run away (if we care for it)? I feel like that there should be milestones for how much you care for your symbiote, like something low like gold, then raise up to something like 3,4,5 star shards or phcs. Just something low y'know.

3. Will the symbiote raise how many stars it has when you give it the Klyntar Katatlysts and strands?

Hmmm... ppl will pay to get this symbiote upgraded. Symbiote will "walk away" . Google play developers ToS prohibits taking away content that is paid for.

How is this symbiote forced removal not against said ToS?

It was never said that players would have to spend money to make the temp champs better. They would have to play event content to get items to do that. If you drop an odin on Energy refills to 100% the event week 1 then that was your choice to spend. No one made you do it.

Any uncollected benefits?

Hey, I have a question. I have got 9000 6* shards. I need 1000 of them to get my first 6* champion. If I understood correctly, there won't be uncollected difficulty in October's EQ. Instead of that there will be an epic. (Beginner, Normal, Heroic, Master and Epic), right? So if I can handle with Uncollected but not enough good to complete Epic I won't get any 6* shards from EQ in the next month? Could you confirm that?

Thanks in advance

Uncollected Difficulty is just being renamed Epic Difficulty this time because it's going to available to all players Level 40 and over, and not going to be locked to Uncollected Players only.

m4ciekk

@Kabam Miike I understood that. Epic difficulty suppose to be much harder than Uncollected like you said in the first post - "This difficulty level goes beyond what you’re used to in Master or Uncollected Difficulty ". So if I can't complete it because of lack of skill, etc., but I could complete Uncollected because it would be easier, I won't get enough resources to get 6* champion?

Eb0ny-O-M4w

You are still not getting it.
Uncollected = Epic. Same thing, only the name changes.

What is being described as a more challenger difficulty that Uncollected/Epic is another difficulty called "Symbiote" Difficulty

IiDev_16

Nice but I don’t get it lol

One_Kermit_Boi

When we claim him can we please have the option to name if I'm raising him I have to name him

Thanks. Sounds logic for me now

Loki_Poki1280

The carnage and venom buff, will they be playable on that date too just wondering because they are like my favorite characters in the marvel universe. Is the summoned Symbiote like small or like a medium sized champion. So many questions. Will there be 6 star shards? what kind of rewards will be getting? This is going to be so awesome, I love the symbiote champions and Marvel contest of champions.

@One_Kermit_Boi it'll just make it harder when you have to let him go lol

Welldangit

Are we allowed to keep the symboite forever?

X_GlaD80r

When can we expect to know the rewards for exploring the new symbiote difficulty? Will it be more 6* shards?

Championcritic

is the fact that master difficulty will no longer need a key to unlock only for this event quest? Or will master difficulty be permanently unlocked for all future events?

Duke_Silver

Love the idea! Are there any gold costs to rank up our little symbiods?

If you read their other announcement it states its permanent.
