If we take Seregon, and change him to a Two-handed fighter archetype instead. He can use his devastating blow power to get an autocrit on Mr.T
Damage would be (2d4+49(10 str+20 greater power attack+5 enhancement+6 WT+4 WS))x5 and autocrits. AC would be 4 less due to losing armor training and the dex bonus. Average of 270 damage a round. Pretty much guaranteed to hit. (Change his feats to scythe as appropriate). Also, he isn't reliant on full-attacks to knock Mr.T down, so in 3 rounds of move/attacking Mr.T will drop.
Even better if we could trade out for some critical feats (blind/staggered/stun/fatigue/exhausted is not something Mr.T is immune to)
Druid 20
I never felt bad or weak in any situation. I could roflstomp many situations.
Now the most broken build I've ever seen (in pathfinder) was an archer paladin in the hands of my friend who rarely rolls lower than 15 and rolls a couple 20s each round. When he DMs he keeps rolling until he does not crit (this can take a minute or two). We have banned dice. It doesn't stop.
The archer paladin was then killed off to be replaced by a horse-poop alchemist that had poisons that why kill anything not immune to poisons. Next boss we fought something immune to poisons.
Throughout all that mess my druid was just kicking butr while being the primary party tank. At higher levels he did more casting than smacking.
I originally built Seregon as a mental exercise (I was inspired by the fighter VS balor thread). Then he had a ring of freedom of movement. When the APG came out and human fighters could suddenly add HUGE bonuses to their CMDs against certain maneuvers, I didn't see much need for it anymore. So I instead gave him a ring of regeneration to increase his durability throughout an adventuring workday.
I also wanted to see how big a tank I could make. I found that I could do better than Seregon does, but there was no need to do so since (at the time of his creation) nothing published could hit him on anything but a natural 20.
As written, he has a better than 75% chance of beating Mr. T on the big guy's terms. Switch out the rings as noted above and it just isn't even fair anymore.

I assume you're talking about an all out slugfest (full-round attacks each way).
How does he handle the issue of reach? If Mr.T just moves back 30' each round, and makes a single attack or grapple attempt? Can his standard action hit do enough to whittle down Mr.T before he gets swallowed?
Does this statement include casters that happen to melee? (i.e. Druids/battle oracles/clericzillas)
It includes casters whose best / most powerful schtick is melee combat related.
It does not include a Paragon Surge abusing Oracle, who also happens to have the Battle mystery and tends to fight in melee a lot, for example.

Want me to say you're right? Fine. You're right--IF a GM plays the tarrasque as anything other than a big dumb lizard.
Seregon was NEVER meant to fight the tarrasque without the ring of freedom of movement anyways. I just neglected to mention that I had changed him for more conventional adventuring at some point (I had simply forgotten that he no longer had the ring).

But... Isn't that what the Tarrasque is? A big dumb lizard with never-ending hunger?
Well... I suppose it could be controlled or something... But that'd be an exception, not the rule... Controlling Tarrasques is not supposed to be easy, right?

Is it possible for a beast bonded witch take over the body of a taaresque? Or maybe face their familiar do it?
Are you still considered grappled while swallowed whole in PF like you are in 3E? If so, you also have to beat a concentration DC based upon big T's enormous CMB...
EDIT: Yes, yes you are...
So, good luck with the CMB +57 (for grapple) on that concentration check.
Broken character? looks like my throw bomber alchemist (with 21 bombs per day) is completly broken, they banned him yesterday from a level 12 campaing lol.
