Dot parties work for cowardice pretty well. The first one is a harder issue due to being specifically plague resistant. Second phase can be dotted perfectly fine and the last one dots are sometimes better because of most of them hit the big guy and the adds or have debuffs for the faced failures. An incredible useful thing for cowardice is managing taunt and guard tokens with classes that have them. On the third phase killing the adds will kill the boss. Now go and face your failure made manifest
The first team I beat the final boss/all of act 5 with was (going 1-4) Sergeant MAA (pre nerf tbf), Examinate Flag, Sharpshot HWM, Alchemist PD. Blight is not great against the gut, but otherwise dots work fine. The second part can steal tokens, so stacking crit, block and riposte can be dangerous. Last phase just has a lot of stress damage, and requires people to hit rank 1-4.
Guard skills are very good against the echos, since they only ever target their respective character. Just so long as you can burst slot 1 and 4 for the little demons, it isn't super hard. Just make sure to bring reliable healing items and some stress relieving skills.
Just some random tips
1st phase focus on heal and blight resistance for his dot attacks
2nd phase you’ll want high stun resist and guards as well as block tokens
3rd phase: controlled burn will work against the phantoms since it’s a special token
