EXPERT COURSE -SECRET-

The following songs are unlockable throughout the SECRET courses in EXPERT mode. To unlock the song, you have to clear the course and fill a gauge by playing the respective course for a certain amount of times. Getting a FULL COMBO in the whole course fully fills the gauge; clearing the course increases the gauge by 50%; failing the course increases the gauge by 25% or by barely anything if you fail at the first song. Use of ASSIST options is allowed but the gauge will be filled much less per play.

Course clearing and gauge filling must be done for each difficulty, if you want to unlock all the new song's charts. Progress between Single Player and Double Player modes is shared.

Chrono Chaser

The Chrono Chaser event is the secret ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE system of beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL.

CHALLENGE 1 of the event started on September 24th, 2014 and ended on June 16th, 2015.
CHALLENGE 2 of the event started on June 17th, 2015.

Unlock conditions are the same between Single Player and Double Player modes and always carry over. Available only on STANDARD Mode. EXPAND-JUDGE, H-RAN and BATTLE options cannot be used. RANDOM cannot be used for triggering the Door.

The objective of Chrono Chaser is to satisfy secret requirements in order to open a Door, which appears in the result screen. Once the Door is open, it's possible to play the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE song once.

Like the LIMIT BURST and Spada†leggendaria events from the previous two beatmania IIDX games, Chrono Chaser uses a Phase system. However, the main difference here is that Chrono Chaser is divided in two parts: the first one where you have to trigger the appearance of the Door, the second one where you have to open said Door.

Main notes:

• There are three Phases in total. As patterns go, phases cycled after every three weeks for CHALLENGE 1. For CHALLENGE 2 instead, they cycle after one week.
• All requirements of the second part of the unlock system must be done on EXTRA STAGE, or on FINAL STAGE if you play on coin mode in Japan.
• You can only fulfill any requirement of the second part of the unlock system once for each current Space-Time Phase. Once you satisfied or fail to satisfy a requirement, you must always wait for the Space-Time Phase to switch to the other one. This isn't true for CHALLENGE 2, as for it you must wait a Space-Time Phase change only if you succeeded in fulfilling the requirement.
• You can circumvent the Space-Time Phase rule with the Hourglass of Time items if you have access to them. By switching Space-Time Phases at your will, you can reach the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE songs much more quickly, all in a single day.

NOTE: Chrono Chaser is inaccessible when you are climbing the Tower of Time chord in the Qpronicle Chord event until you have unlocked all of 共鳴遊戯の華's charts.

CHALLENGE 1 (LOCKED)

Part 1 - Triggering the Door

To begin the event, you have to first trigger the appearance of the Door itself in one of the two Space-Time Phases. This can be done on any Stage, including the EXTRA STAGE.

The songs you must use are Phase exclusive songs; the choice depends on the current Space-Time Phase: chrono diver -fragment- and illuminate for PRESENT Phase, CHRONO DIVER -NORNIR- and subtractive for FUTURE Phase.

The ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE song depends on which Space-Time Phase you triggered the Door.

• Phase 1
  • NORMAL and HYPER charts are not available.
  • ANOTHER difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo and at least a AAA rank grade together on a Phase exclusive song's ANOTHER chart without using any option.
• Phase 2
  • NORMAL charts are not available.
  • HYPER difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo and at least a AAA rank grade together on a Phase exclusive song's HYPER chart without using any option.
  • ANOTHER difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo and at least a AA rank grade together on a Phase exclusive song's ANOTHER chart without using any option.
• Phase 3
  • NORMAL difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo and at least a A rank grade together on a Phase exclusive song's NORMAL chart.
  • HYPER difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo and at least a AA rank grade together on a Phase exclusive song's HYPER chart.
  • ANOTHER difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo and at least a AA rank grade together on a Phase exclusive song's ANOTHER chart.

If done correctly, the Door appears in the result screen. Part 2 of the unlock system begins immediately after.
NOTE: If you trigger the Door on EXTRA STAGE, part 2 of the unlock system begins in the next credit only.

Part 2 - Opening the Door

With the Door being triggered, you now have to fulfill hidden requirements in order to open the Door. The Door comes with three "challenge chance" coins; each coin disappears if you fail to satisfy the hidden requirement.

The hidden requirement to open the Door is to obtain a FULL COMBO on a group of different songs with charts having a specific rating level per difficulty. It's certain that on Phase 1, you have to obtain a FULL COMBO on nine different songs and the songs' charts have to be level 12 ones on ANOTHER difficulty. In the next Phases, the requirement becomes easier to fulfill by time.

As of December 22nd, 2014, this is the status of the hidden requirement to open the Door:

• If you're playing on NORMAL difficulty, obtain a FULL COMBO on three different charts rated at least level 6.
• If you're playing on HYPER difficulty, obtain a FULL COMBO on three different charts rated at least level 7.
• If you're playing on ANOTHER difficulty, obtain a FULL COMBO on three different charts rated at least level 8.

If you use different difficulties together to open the Door, it may take more credits/songs. It's not recommended to do so, as it appears that the difficulty progresses are separate.

If the requirement is satisfied, you don't lose any "challenge chance" coin and electric effects on the Door appear. These effects progressively get stronger each time you're closer to opening the Door.

If all "challenge chance" coins are gone, the Door disappears and all the fulfilled requirements are cancelled. The Door must be re-triggered again afterwards.

When the Door is finally open, you are forced play the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE song with the EX-HARD gauge being turned on. Its chart depends on which difficulty you have played the last song prior to opening the Door. After playing the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE song, your Chrono Chaser's progress resets and the Door must be re-triggered again.

April 14th, 2015 UPDATE: The Door has now its "health bar" being visible. One FULL COMBO takes down 50% of the gauge, but the Door regains 5% of the gauge after each Space-Time Phase. In conclusion, it takes three FULL COMBOs minimum to open the Door.

June 17th, 2015 UPDATE: As of this day, CHALLENGE 1 Door isn't available anymore, therefore cinder and Gravigazer cannot be played.

July 1st, 2015 UPDATE: cinder and Gravigazer are unlocked for regular play throughout the VS RHYZE SIDE P and VS RHYZE SIDE T SECRET courses in EXPERT MODE respectively.

CHALLENGE 2 (PHASE 2)

All general information written above apply for this second Door, save changes mentioned below.

Part 1 - Triggering the Door

As always, the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE song depends on which Space-Time Phase you triggered the Door. Say YEEEAHH for PRESENT Phase, Reflux for FUTURE Phase.

• Phase 1
  • NORMAL and HYPER charts are not available.
  • ANOTHER difficulty: Obtain a Full Combo on the ANOTHER chart of any kors k song (PRESENT Phase only) or Eagle song (FUTURE Phase only).
• Phase 2
  • NORMAL charts are not available.
  • HYPER difficulty: EX Hard Clear the HYPER chart of any kors k song (PRESENT Phase only) or Eagle song (FUTURE Phase only).
  • ANOTHER difficulty: EX Hard Clear the ANOTHER chart of any kors k song (PRESENT Phase only) or Eagle song (FUTURE Phase only).
• Phase 3
  • NORMAL difficulty: Hard Clear the NORMAL chart of any kors k song (PRESENT Phase only) or Eagle song (FUTURE Phase only).
  • HYPER difficulty: Hard Clear the HYPER chart of any kors k song (PRESENT Phase only) or Eagle song (FUTURE Phase only).
  • ANOTHER difficulty: Hard Clear the ANOTHER chart of any kors k song (PRESENT Phase only) or Eagle song (FUTURE Phase only).

If done correctly, the Door appears in the result screen. Part 2 of the unlock system begins immediately after.
NOTE: If you trigger the Door on EXTRA STAGE, part 2 of the unlock system begins in the next credit only.

Part 2 - Opening the Door

After you triggered the Door, you can access the Chrono Chaser Challenge folders on EXTRA STAGE. These folders contains a random selection of songs (generally five for each Level if available) that changes in every play session. There are three folders, one for each difficulty.

The Chrono Chaser Challenge folder system currently works as follows:

• Phase 1
  • NORMAL and HYPER folders are not available.
  • ANOTHER folder: contains songs rated Level 12.
• Phase 2
  • NORMAL folder is not available.
  • HYPER folder: contains songs rated from Level 10 to Level 12.
  • ANOTHER difficulty: contains songs rated from Level 10 to Level 12.
• Phase 3
  • NORMAL folder: contains songs rated from Level 6 to Level 9.
  • HYPER folder: contains songs rated from Level 6 to Level 12.
  • ANOTHER difficulty: contains songs rated from Level 6 to Level 12.

You have to obtain a FULL COMBO on any of these folders' songs; RANDOM and ASSIST options can be used and rank grade doesn't matter.

One FULL COMBO on a Level 12 chart approximately takes down 40% of the gauge, 34% of the gauge on a Level 10 chart, 30% of the gauge on a Level 9 chart, 20%-25% of the gauge on a Level 8 chart and below. The Door regains a bit of gauge in every Space-Time Phase change.

You lose one "challenge chance" coin if you fail to FULL COMBO, however you don't lose one if you don't play a Chrono Chaser Challenge folder song.

NOTE: As of Phase 3, the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE songs have the HARD gauge being forced on.

Chrono Seeker

Official event page.

The Chrono Seeker event is the first unlock system of beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL, introduced on October 1st, 2014.

12/15/2014 UPDATE: The Chrono Seeker event ended on December 21st, 2014. All the songs unlocked for default play do stay, while Symmetry, NEO GENERATOR SEVEN and Broken Sword cannot be (currently) played anymore as the Chrono Seeker folder isn't accessible anymore.

01/21/2014 UPDATE: You can now buy from the game website the Moonlight Hologram items that fully unlock the Chrono Seeker songs that you have unlocked during the event. For the players who have fully finished the event, this is the only way to permanently unlock the three Devil boss songs.

07/10/2015 UPDATE: The seven Chrono Seeker songs are fully playable in the SUPER FUTURE 2323 Space-Time Phase.

The event only shows up in STANDARD mode, with only one player. Chrono Seeker is automatically activated after the first play session since the event started.

The main objective is to unlock new charts by collecting Crystal shards. In order to do this, you need to fulfill certain phase-specific unlock conditions, which are listed below. There are conditions for each class, i.e. one for the NORMAL (blue), one for the HYPER (yellow), and one for the ANOTHER (red) version of the new song. When a Crystal is materialized in the special event screen (which appears at the end of each play session), a special announcement appears and the respective chart is unlocked. The Crystal rows, which show up at the end of a play session, are divided in two sides, one for Chronos (left side) and one for Kairos (right side); these must be unlocked in order, from the top one to the bottom one. Crystals obtained during the PRESENT Phase appear on Chronos' side, Crystals obtained during the FUTURE Phase appear on Kairos' side.

The four Chrono Seeker songs can be unlocked in both Space-Time Phases, meaning from both sides of the Crystal rows. Therefore, if you "start" the event in the future phase, Chrono Seeker songs will be unlocked in the future and the revival/CS songs in the present phase. The requirements for unlocking the songs are the only main differences between the Space-Time Phases, event-wise. Requirements are satisfied even if you fail to clear the songs.

When you unlock a Chrono Seeker chart from a single side, you can play it in the special CHRONO SEEKER folder, available in the next play session on FINAL STAGE on coin play, or on EXTRA STAGE on PASELI play (in the rest of Asia, it appears on EXTRA STAGE on coin play only). Note that you MUST play the newly unlocked song before you can proceed to the next Crystal row, therefore to the successive song to unlock. At least one completed Crystal is required to unlock the next row.

Progression on the Crystal rows is shared between both Space-Time Phases; for example, if you have unlocked the third row on PRESENT Phase, on FUTURE Phase you can unlock any of the first three Chrono Seeker songs as you wish. You still have to play the song of the third row before working on the fourth one, of course.

You are allowed to complete multiple Crystals by satisfying different requirements in a single play session too.

When two Crystals of same color are completed on the same Crystal row, the respective Chrono Seeker chart permanently appears on regular play. This also unlocks the respective hidden Revival/CS Transplant for regular play too, whose available difficulty chart depends on which Chrono Seeker chart you have fully unlocked on both Crystal row sides.

For a quick resume of the Crystal rows and their songs:

Qpronicle Chord

Phase 1 official event page.
Phase 2 official event page.
Phase 3 official event page.

The Qpronicle Chord event is the second unlock system of beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL, introduced on December 22nd, 2014.
The second phase is available from January 28th, 2015. The third and final phase is available from March 4th, 2015.

NOTE: Qpronicle Chord ends on July 28th, 2015.

Unlike Chrono Seeker, this event focuses on Q-pro's story again, where he returns to three old locations: the Lincle Kingdom from beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle, the tricoro city from beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro and Elferia from beatmania IIDX 21 SPADA. Previous enemies of Q-pro from each game return, but as partners. The Joker characters from beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro return as the main villains again.

The event shows up at the beginning and at the end of every play session, regardless of the mode chosen. Qpronicle Chord is automatically activated after the first play session since the event started. It only shows up with one player.

Before going to the song select screen, you are taken to the event screen to choose which island you want to conquer. At the end of the play session you deal with the main mini-game.

After accessing an island, the system BGM of its related game will be played in the menu screens instead of the regular PENDUAL one: Lincle BGM if you choose Lincle Kingdom (slightly redone, with layered versions too), tricoro BGM if you choose tricoro city, SPADA BGM if you choose Elferia.
The PENDUAL BGM plays when you are inside the Tower.

You unlock songs' charts by conquering each one of the three islands, by defeating the enemies you encounter. The main mini-game consists of your Q-pro character attacking the group of enemies by dealing a certain amount of damage. During the battle, you can inflict critical damage (multiplier bonus) by pressing the white key at the right moment when the moving line on the arch goes through the still, second one; the more you are precise, the bigger the damage multiplier will be.

Regarding the partners, you start out with none. You can unlock them on the islands when a blue devil icon appears on any of them, one at a time. Right at the beginning you can unlock the first partner of your choice but afterwards you have to wait until your current partner reaches a high enough level, in order to trigger the appearance of another blue devil icon.

Choosing an island with a blue devil icon leads you at the end of the credit in an Unknown Area, where you have to fight a magic seal (which works like any enemy you encounter). Destroying the seal unlocks the partner, and also the NORMAL chart of the unlockable Qpronicle Chord song related to the chosen island.

The partners available in the event are:

• [Lincle Kingdom] - Rche, Beridzebeth
• [tricoro city] - Sumomo, elpis§煌§
• [Elferia] - Faula, Ferira

You can choose a team of three partners, with one partner being the main one (leader). You can access the partner menu by pressing VEFX on the map selection screen. Partners have two bars: one for the level/experience and one for "LOVE". Your partners level up by how much damage you inflict on enemies; the main partner gathers much more experience than the other two selected ones. The LOVE bar also increases of point after each credit; however, the LOVE bar increases only for your main selected partner.

When unlocking the partners, the island where you have unlocked the respective one becomes inaccessible until you have unlocked all the partners and therefore the songs' NORMAL charts. Afterwards, your objective is to keep fighting enemies and level up your partners; levelling up your partners is what trigger the appearance of the yellow and red devil icons on the islands, letting you unlock the HYPER and the ANOTHER charts of the Qpronicle Chord songs (and NORMAL too, when it comes to the Phase 2 songs). This happens when the total combined level of all your partners reaches a certain amount; the amounts are: 12, 19, 28, 38, 48, 54, 55, 56, 58, 66, 73, 82, 92, 102, 109.

Regarding the LOVE feature, it has two uses: it changes the partners' expressions in the after-battle status screen which is purely a visual feature and their dialogues, and it is used to unlock lane cover frames. It's recommended to frequently change your lead partner, so you can get their LOVE level to MAX. LOVE level starts out at 1, range goes from -2 to MAX (level 5).

Partners help you in battles, dealing bonus damage throughout special moves when you trigger critical attacks. Chosen partners appear as part of your Q-pro avatar in all screens and boss songs, automatically replacing the Head gear. Maximum level for the partners is 99.

You cannot Level up your partners in conquered locations - the ones that appear with a yellow check mark - until all of the locations themselves (except the Tower) have been conquered. The LOVE bar still increases anytime.

By unlocking Qpronicle songs' charts, you obtain Bronze Tran Medals. By defeating enemies, you obtain FRICO points.

Doing more damage in battle means getting more Level points for your partners. In general, damage points depend on the following factors:

• How many songs you have played in a play session (3 points per song, for a possible max of 15 points).
• How many specific songs you have played in a play session with a specific chosen partner (1 point per song, for a possible max of 5 points).

The partner bonus points are obtained when you play specific songs depending on your chosen lead partner.

• Rche: songs from the Lincle folder and songs with genres containing the word "TRANCE".
• Beridzebeth: songs from the Lincle folder and songs with genres containing the word "DRUM".
• Sumomo: songs from the tricoro folder and songs that contain the words "8", "princess" and "bit" in their genres or titles.
• elpis§煌§: songs from the tricoro, 10th style and 2nd style folders.
• Faula: songs from the SPADA and Spada†leggendaria folders and songs containing "Ryu☆" in the artist credits.
• Ferira: songs from the SPADA and Spada†leggendaria folders and songs containing "猫叉Master" in the artist credits.

The Standard Critical attack, whose damage is multiplied by either ×1.0, ×1.2 or ×1.5, depending on your timing in the battle mini-game, can be increased throughout special bonuses. Said bonus damage is multiplied by either ×1.5, ×1.7 or ×2.0, depending on your timing in the battle mini-game, once again. These critical bonuses are:

• VIP PASS BLACK bonus (requires the use of VIP PASS BLACK).
• Daily bonus (triggers in the next credit if VIP PASS BLACK is used).
• Hourglass of Time bonus (cannot be used alongside the VIP PASS BLACK and Daily bonus critical attacks).

Regarding the enemies, other than the standard grunts (monsters from Lincle Kingdom and Qprogue, plus characters from songs such as CONCEPTUAL and BRAVE GLOW), you fight rare enemies and super rare enemies. Their appearance is random and the enemy character in question depends on the game's Space-Time Phase. On the map selection screen, when a glowing icon showing the letter "S" next to an island appears, that means said island may contain either a rare enemy or a super rare one. Rare enemies only give you bonus FRICO points, while the super rare enemies give you CS Crossovers and the respective Silver Tran Medal upon defeat.

The super rare enemies work differently from the rest, as they appear alone and have a health bar. They only go down after several encounters when their health bars have been fully depleted. There are five super rare enemies - one per Space-Time Phase except Ripika who appears in both - and when you defeat one you unlock all the charts of the respective enemy's CS Crossover.

Once you unlocked all the Phase 1 and Phase 2 songs, including their CS Crossovers, you can access the Tower of Time chord. The Tower has an unlimited amount of floors that you progressively climb through after each credit (you also always start from the last explored floor in case you exit the Tower and re-enter it). Upon reaching the 5th floor, the 10th floor and the 25th floor, the game forces you to respectively play the NORMAL, HYPER and ANOTHER charts of the final boss song of Qpronicle Chord as a ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE. These three charts will be unlocked for regular play as well, regardless if you cleared them or not as ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE (which doesn't happen anymore after you've reached the 25th floor). If you entered the Tower and haven't reached the 25th floor yet, the Chrono Chaser event will not be accessible.
Unlocking each chart of the final boss song nets you a Gold Tran Medal. After unlocking the ANOTHER chart, the ending cutscene plays and you will get a Platinum Tran Medal. The sky in the map selection screen changes color to pink and from there you can get the rest of the unlockables (unlike the previous phases, the event will be always active).

• Ludus In Tenebris / Akhuta - dropped in Plain of Lincle.

You need to see the Qpronicle Chord's final cutscene first before you can unlock these.

To unlock the lane cover frames, LOVE bar for each partner must reach level MAX. Each lane cover shows the partner in question in their "LOVE MAX" expression. When all the six partner lane cover frames are unlocked, you automatically unlock a seventh lane cover frame showing all partners in their "Q-pro Head Gear" version.

To unlock the Lincle HD, tricoro and SPADA game frames, the total level of the partners that correspond to each game version must reach 40 (i.e. Faula and Ferira for the SPADA frame, etc...).

Unlocking the lane cover and game frames net you Bronze Tran Medals, except for the seventh lane cover unlock.

Affection Ranking is a special sub-event of Qpronicle Chord and it's divided in three parts, one for each game version cup:

• Lincle Cup (Rche & Beridzebeth) - from April 22nd, 2015 to May 12th, 2015.
• tricoro Cup (Sumomo & elpis§煌§) - from May 13th, 2015 to June 2nd, 2015.
• SPADA Cup (Faula & Ferira) - from June 3rd, 2015 to June 23rd, 2015.

Objective is to get Affection points for the Cup's specific partners by playing as much credits as possible while having them selected. In a Cup period, Affection points are given from the 6th credit onward.

There are three types of rewards.

• Unlockable Q-pro sets: you need to make it in the Top 1000 Affection rank at the end of Cup periods. There's a top 1000 list for each partner - two active per cup, six in total - and each one gives you the Q-pro set of the partner's boss version (as seen in the overlays for Qpronicle Chord boss songs).
• Head Q-pro parts: get at least two Affection points for each partner to unlock the partners themselves as Head Q-pro parts, as previously seen in the Qpronicle Chord event. This type of reward is given instantly upon satisfying the condition; you don't need to wait the end of the Cup period.
• CS Crossover: get at least ten Affection points in each Cup period. If the condition is satisfied, from June 3rd, 2015 you have access to:
  • The Least 100sec / Sasaki Hirofumi - from GUITARFREAKS 5thMIX & drummania 4thMIX.
