Cockatrice

Fierce ornithosaurs that resemble a grotesque mix of lizard and rooster. They are highly territorial flyers that strike with shocking physical speed, using talons to open lethal bleeding wounds.

Combat strategy

Ground them during low flight sweeps with a crossbow bolt or Aard sign. Coat your blade with Draconid Oil and maximize physical evasions to avoid their direct front beak pecks.
