Re: Tarrasque, good foe for tier 3?
That may have been what you intended to write, but what you actually wrote was claiming that the Tarrasque was aquatic in any setting except Kingdoms of Kalamar, hence my confusion.

Re: Tarrasque, good foe for tier 3?
Why wouldn't a single dose be enough?I forgot it allows a save.
And yes, it would work.Last edited by Andezzar; 2015-01-31 at 09:53 AM.

1) Time-Stop, maximized.
2) Multiple Walls of Stone, entrapping Big T with too much thickness for him to make the break DC.
3) Let him drown in solid stone.
If all you have is a hammer, don't be lazy; be a blacksmith and start making more stuff.

1) Walls of stone merge into adjoining rock surfaces. If you got 5 of them in a row, you don't have 5 walls each 5 inches thick but a single wall 25 inches thick.
2) Walls of stone can be shaped to entrap opponents. Coat Big T with the first wall, then the first with the second, the second with the third and so on and so forth. It's a DC 70 strength check to breat out of a quintuple layer which nobody save Superman or a sufficiently buffed CoDzilla could succeed in.

Re: Tarrasque, good foe for tier 3?
Nothing is stopping Big T from simply bashing the stone until he breaks through. Stone only has hardness 8, meaning that every single one of the tarrasque's natural attacks is effective. It is impossible to miss the wall, so he can augment his attacks with Power Attack and will be out of there in no time.

Re: Tarrasque, good foe for tier 3?
Speaking of which, any chance of seeing those Rovagug stats you were using over in the Challenge thread? Having read into Pathfinder's take on Big T and his connections to Rovagug, I think your perspective on "unkillable" monsters is very interesting.
