Cockatrices have low HP and Defense, and only 1 Attack. So what's the big deal? Their attacks turn their victims to Stone. Combined with their high Evasion, this makes cocktrices some of the more annoying enemies you will run into, especially if you don't have a supply of Gold Needles. In large groups, it is worth taking them out with Spells in most cases. Saving Spell slots is important, but this is one of the enemies you save them for.
Rarely does evolution enable birds' beaks to petrify their foes--but it does happen.

Cockatrices are much hardier than their incarnations in the previous game. Their attacks still turn you to Stone, and they get four of them, so evasion is a must. It is well worth leveling your Esuna Spell so it can heal Stone at this point if you haven't already. The Demon Spear or Wing Sword works well against them, as does Aura.
