| name = Escort Professor Chanoix
| area = Leujaoam Sanctum
| rank = SP
| recommended level = 60
| base points = 1100

}}

==Walkthrough==
# Move ahead of [[Clavauert B Chanoix]] to begin the escort.
#* You do not need to speak with him.
#* Once he begins moving, there is no direct way to stop or control him.
# Follow and protect the Professor as he travels toward one of two possible destinations:
#* {{Location Tooltip|area=Leujaoam Sanctum|map=Map 2|pos=J-5|text=J-5|id=escort-professor-chanoix-destination-j5}}
#* {{Location Tooltip|area=Leujaoam Sanctum|map=Map 2|pos=G-9|text=G-9|id=escort-professor-chanoix-destination-g9}}
#* His destination is selected when the mission begins.
#* He may pause, reverse direction, or backtrack before reaching the destination.
# Protect him from the [[Frozen Bones]] and [[Gelid Bhoot]] along his route.
#* Enemies may be defeated, slept, bound, weighted, or pulled away from the Professor.
#* The enemies do not need to be defeated to complete the objective.
# Keep the Professor's HP high.
#* [[Cure]] spells can be cast on him.
#* [[Protect]] and [[Shell]] can also be cast on him.
#* Party-only abilities and spells, such as [[Magic Fruit]] and [[Curing Waltz]], do not target him.
#* If the Professor is defeated, the Assault immediately fails.
# When the Professor reaches his destination, the mission objective is completed.
# The [[Ancient Lockbox]] and [[Rune of Release]] become available at {{Location Tooltip|area=Leujaoam Sanctum|map=Map 2|pos=I-8|text=I-8|id=escort-professor-chanoix-release}}.
# Open the Ancient Lockbox and distribute all treasure before activating the Rune of Release.
# Examine the Rune of Release to complete the Assault and receive [[Assault Points]].

==Escort Mechanics==
The mission-specific escort behavior below is based on original-era documentation and requires confirmation on HorizonXI.

{| class="horizon-table table-xl quest-table"
! Mechanic
! Reported Behavior
|-
| Starting the escort
|
* The Professor begins moving when a player proceeds ahead of him.
* No direct interaction is required.
|-
| Movement
|
* The Professor moves independently.
* He may pause for short periods.
* He may reverse direction or retrace part of his route.
* There is no command that causes him to follow, wait, or change direction.
|-
| Destination
|
The Professor travels to one of the following rooms:
* {{Location Tooltip|area=Leujaoam Sanctum|map=Map 2|pos=J-5|text=J-5|id=escort-professor-chanoix-mechanics-j5}}
* {{Location Tooltip|area=Leujaoam Sanctum|map=Map 2|pos=G-9|text=G-9|id=escort-professor-chanoix-mechanics-g9}}
|-
| Tracking
|
* The Professor is reported to appear on [[Wide Scan]].
* He may move out of visual range while the party is controlling enemies.
|-
| Healing and support
|
* The Professor can receive Cure spells.
* Protect and Shell can be cast on him.
* Party-specific healing abilities and spells cannot target him.
* Other beneficial effects are reported not to affect him.
|-
| Enemy detection
|
* The undead enemies can detect the Professor even when players are protected by [[Sneak]].
* Both the Professor and party members may attract undead through low-HP detection.
|-
| Failure condition
|
* The Assault immediately fails if the Professor is defeated.
* Party members do not need to defeat every enemy.
|}

==Enemies==
The enemy counts and level ranges below are based on original-era records. Current LandSandBoat defines the corresponding enemy templates, but does not currently implement this Assault's battlefield logic.

{| class="horizon-table table-xl quest-table center-col-2 center-col-3"
! Name
! Reported Level
! Spawns
! Behavior and Notes
|-
| [[Frozen Bones]]
| 73-75
| 9
|
* Aggressive undead.
* Detect by sound and low HP.
* Strong against slashing and piercing damage.
* Weak to blunt, hand-to-hand, Fire, and Light damage.
* Highly susceptible to Light-based sleep effects.
* Dark-based [[Sleep (Status Effect)|Sleep]] is reported to be ineffective.
* Original-era records report that they cast Black Magic.
|-
| [[Gelid Bhoot]]
| 76-77
| 7
|
* Aggressive undead.
* Detect by sound and low HP.
* [[Black Mage]] enemies capable of dangerous area-of-effect magic.
* Strong against physical, Ice, and Dark damage.
* Weak to Fire and Light damage.
* Susceptible to Light-based sleep effects.
* Dark-based Sleep may be less reliable.
* Original-era records report frequent use of [[Blizzaga III]].
|}

==Strategy==
* Assign one player to remain near the Professor and keep him healed.
* Send one or more players ahead of his route to control enemies before he reaches them.
* Use Light-based sleep effects against both enemy types:
** [[Repose]]
** [[Lullaby]]
** [[Sheep Song]]
* Use [[Bind]] and [[Gravity]] to prevent enemies from following the Professor.
* Use [[Silence]] on Gelid Bhoots to reduce the threat from area-of-effect magic.
* Keep party members at high HP to avoid attracting undead through low-HP detection.
* Sneak may prevent ordinary sound detection against players, but does not protect the Professor.
* If defeating Frozen Bones, prioritize [[Blunt]] such as clubs or [[Hand-to-Hand]] damage.
* If the Professor reverses direction, be prepared to control enemies that were left behind on the earlier route.
* Use his pauses to restore his HP, reapply Protect or Shell, and prepare the next section of the route.
* Do not activate the Rune of Release until all Ancient Lockbox treasure has been distributed.

==Assault Points==
{{Assault Mission
| part = points
| base points = 1100
}}

==Ancient Lockbox==
The [[Ancient Lockbox]] becomes available after [[Clavauert B Chanoix]] reaches his destination.
