Firstly, congratulations on clearing the event.

About the game being "brutal" or giving you "stress", this is why I always tell others, it's a game. You really need to play games emotionlessly. There is no joy, no sorrow, no pride, no shame, no anger, no frustration. There is only simply what is. That is how I play games.

If a game is giving you "stress", why do you play it? A game is meant as a pastime. If it is adding stress, something is clearly wrong.

Even if someone or something is going against your goals (such as clearing an event), remember that how others behave is up to them, but how you behave is up to you. You can't say "the game makes me so mad", or "he's so frustrating". No. The truth is that when people say that - they chose to be mad/frustrated/stressed/angry. No one points a loaded gun at us and forces us to be angry at something.

Each and everyone of us can choose something else even when a lot of pressure is applied on to us. Emotions are like a light switch, if you exert control, you can switch them on and off instantly - if you really want to. Do you want to? Is feeling the stress over the game worth it? Does the game care that you are stressed?

Be logical, be emotionless, and use common sense. Perhaps that will help you in the game too.
