I go through the quest two times with magick archer and melee mystic knight. Oddly pure melee is so much easier on my lv. 60 mystic knight on hard mode. I have my guy equiped with gloves of might and barbed nails, then climb quickly onto Cockatrice's back (between its wings), and just smash its back after eating some conquerer's strength booster. It does its breath attack to kill 3 npcs, but I knock on its back enough to stop its second breath attack. Then I just keep bashing, eat mushrooms, and it flies away. All pawns aren't even hit once and all trophies are safe.

My magick archer battle isn't so smooth though, all pawns keep getting petrified and I get hit several times. Even worse I forget to equip immolation and great ward. Lucky enough all trophies are still safe but two pawns are petrified.
