Stop. The HEAT POWER is fine where it is. Adding ENDYMION to the list implies it is unlockable; it is not, and the text indicates this.

At the end of each round, RINON's HEAT POWER gauge will increase by one bar. At 3 bars, Level 2 is reached, and the player is granted 3 Result Stars at the end of the round. At 7 bars, Level 3 is reached, and the player is granted a full set of 9 Result Stars; in addition, charts played on EXTRA SAVIOR are unlocked even if failed. The HEAT POWER gauge is reset during the eAMUSEMENT maintenance window. Whichever player has the higher HEAT POWER gauge at the time will determine the EXTRA STAGE Level.


During EXTRA STAGE, the [[DDR AC General Info|LIFE GAUGE modifier]] is restricted to LIFE4.

As of June 13th, 2016, the HEAT POWER and EXTRA EXCLUSIVE mechanics are added. At the end of each round, RINON's HEAT POWER gauge will increase by 1 bar. At 3 bars, Level 2 is reached, and the player is granted 3 Result Stars at the end of the round. At the maximum of 7 bars, Level 3 is reached, and the player is granted a full set of 9 Result Stars. The gauge is reset during the eAMUSEMENT maintenance window. In Versus Play, the player with the higher HEAT POWER gauge will determine the EXTRA STAGE Level.
The EXTRA EXCLUSIVE song folder was added on June 13th, 2016. By default, these songs are only playable during EXTRA STAGE with an appropriate level. With each update, a new song was added to EXTRA STAGE Level 2, while songs that were previously assigned to EXTRA STAGE Level 2 were downgraded to Level 1, and from Level 1 to FINAL STAGE (even on Normal Play). <!-- Please do not move RINON'S ADVENTURE information here. By the time a player begins unlocking songs, it will be thoroughly obvious how it works.-->
 
If the EXTRA STAGE Level is high enough, special songs appear in the new EXTRA EXCLUSIVE folder. Over updates, new songs are added to EXTRA STAGE Level 2 while previous songs are downgraded (but not below FINAL STAGE). <!-- Please do not move RINON'S ADVENTURE information here. By the time a player begins unlocking songs, it will be thoroughly obvious how it works.-->

Like in BABY-LON'S ADVENTURE, [[RINON]] will ascend a staircase based on grade earned on a song, but only during EXTRA STAGE. The steps earned for grade are the same, but combo and first-time play bonuses do not apply. Steps required:

The 11th staircase plays a cutscene and unlocks EXTRA EXCLUSIVE LEVEL A (beyond EXTRA EXCLUSIVE LEVEL 10), revealing [[ENDYMION]] as an EXTRA STAGE Level 3 song. Selecting it will consume all HEAT POWER and play another cutscene, and HEAT POWER is not given at the end of the round.
After unlocking Cosy Catastrophe, 156 steps are required to complete the event. This unlocks [[ENDYMION]] as a Level 3 EXTRA EXCLUSIVE song. Selecting it will consume all HEAT POWER, and HEAT POWER is not given at the end of the round. Various cutscenes will play as a result of completing RINON'S ADVENTURE, reaching EXTRA STAGE Level 3, and selecting ENDYMION. <!--These are available on Youtube.-->


If ENDYMION is cleared on BASIC or higher with at least a AA+ grade, then ENCORE EXTRA STAGE is triggered, playing [[ACE FOR ACES]] on the following difficulty levels: BASIC -> BASIC, DIFFICULT -> DIFFICULT, and EXPERT -> DIFFICULT. During ENCORE EXTRA STAGE, any judgment under a Perfect immediately fails the song. It is not possible to use the left and right buttons on the cabinet to change speed modifiers at the start of ACE FOR ACES, and note-removing modifiers are also disabled.
