Chaos Guardian

The Chaos Guardian is one of The Professor's summoned guardians. They will occasionally slam nearby players, knocking them back and dealing damage, and can charge up a Discharge Attack which summons high-damage TNT around itself, which is usually a guaranteed death for everyone nearby and should be avoided. Upon defeat, the Chaos Guardian will be disabled for 10 seconds before reviving with 50% of its last life HP.

In master mode, the Chaos Guardian will only be disabled for 7 seconds, and will revive with 90% of its last life's max HP instead of 50%.

Rogue Guardians are enemies that spawn during the Catacombs Floor III Professor boss fight. They spawn throughout the duration of the fight as normal guardians and become their elder guardian (Lv2) form after being alive for some time. They float around the room and attempt to use their laser to deal damage to players. In master mode, they spawn as their Elder Guardian form automatically.

Phase 1

The Professor will be floating in an encaged area in the middle of the arena where players will not be able to attack him. They must first defeat all of his Guardians which spawn in aquariums around him. Once the players have killed all of the Guardians, The Professor will move on to his second phase.

If the players aren't fast enough in killing all of the Guardians, all already dead Guardians will be revived after 10 seconds.

The Reinforced Guardian will start spawning Rogue Guardians throughout the fight which attack the players by flying around and shooting lasers at them. If the players do not kill them, they will turn into Elder Rogue Guardians which deal more damage.

Phase 2

The Professor's barrier is removed and he starts attacking the players. Once the players bring The Professor down to 25% of his HP (750k Health in Normal Mode and 150M Health in Master Mode) he will move onto his third phase.

Phase 3

The Professor absorbs the Guardians from phase 1 and becomes a guardian himself. He will spawn the smaller Rogue Guardians and also use the abilities of the Guardians from phase 1. If the players don't kill him fast enough, the arena will start flooding and boats will spawn. After The Professor is killed, Necron appears in chat.

Master Mode Changes

The Professor has 600M Health.
The Professor's Guardians have 125M Health and the Reinforced Guardian has 150M Health
Rogue Guardians are always Elder.
The Healthy Guardian cannot be damaged while it is performing Giga Heal
Guardians are no longer revived in 10 seconds, but instead in 7.
If Guardians are revived, they regain 90% HP back instead of 80%.

I was burdened with terrible news recently...

Perfect offense and defense, I am INVINCIBLE!

After successful Giga Heal

Another flawless Giga Heal. You are making this too easy for me!

These Guardians aren't just for show I'm afraid!
The process is irreversible, but I'll be stronger than a Wither now!

Trivia

The Professor was originally called "Oak" on the Alpha Network
This is the first appearance of Necron in the Catacombs.
The student The Professor mentions in his dialogue is the Catacombs Floor II BOSS, Scarf. He was also a teacher to Bonzo, the Catacombs Floor I BOSS.
The Professor's skin is also used for the Main Lobby's Apple Bobbing NPC during Hypixel's Halloween event.
The Professor has the same head texture as Sadan, although it is recoloured.
The Guardian attack "Body Slam" is likely a reference to the Pokémon move of the same name.
