Hi!
I was wondering what you guys think is the easiest way to kill a tarrasque.
If you have actually killed a tarrasque in game play plz mention it.
Thanks!

The Tarrasque, given his regeneration, cannot be killed.
The only known method of killing him is suffocation, which overrides regeneration by rules.
Maybe you could go with "he's like dead now".
Some examples are Parasitic Soul, which has the side effect of transferring your soul into his body, which is good.
Plane shift it away where you don't care about it.
Or cage him forever, possibly inside a personal, permanent demiplane with the dead magic trait (Greater create demiplane->Permanency ->Gate to somewhere->Move the tarrasque into the plane (possibly unconscious but it isn't required)->Change the magic trait to "dead magic"-> step into the gate -> dismiss/dispel/disjoin it).
This thread gives a lot of hints on how to deal with the Tarrasque.
You don't kill the Tarrasque. You bribe your GM to make it go away. Homemade chocolate chip cookies might work.
Nice!
Sphere of Annihilation, it's not a death effect...and only a divine intervention can save you. But well, in some settings, Tarrasque are made because of divine retribution so might not the best way to kill it but without divine intervention..it works.
Not necessarily- the way that its regeneration is worded doesn't limit it to disintegration or death effects, it merely lists those as examples of damage that would normally get past regular regeneration.
It was made by a god as revenge against other gods- its regeneration is supposed to be broken, and it is VERY easy to call it divine intervention.
Not that the sphere wouldn't be an effective countermeasure. Not staying dead doesn't mean the tarrasque isn't still sucked in and killed again and again since it keeps respawning in the same spot. It seems like an effective way to seal it, and the item includes methods of undoing that seal (blasting gate spells until everything gets blasted to another plane- tarrasque goes along for the ride; rod of cancellation tapped to the damn thing)
EDIT- and suffocation doesn't necessarily kill it anymore either, ElMustacho. Inner Sea gods added the Godspawn subtype, and that has been later added to the tarrasque. It includes this bit:
Hibernation (Ex)
Godspawn can sleep for years, decades, or even centuries and do not need to eat or breathe during these periods of dormancy. If a godspawn is forced into an environment where it cannot breathe and would suffocate, it goes into hibernation until conditions are right for it to reawaken. While in hibernation, a godspawn's damage reduction improves to 50/epic and it gains immunity to any spell or spell-like ability that allows spell resistance as well as all divination effects.
Still a method of getting it to stop for a bit, but still dangerous if cultist try to just teleport the damn thing out (plus side though- the cultist couldn't find the tarrasque- easier to hide)
have you seen dragonballz? he's basically buu. and the spirit bomb is the sphere of annihilation. like you burn this thing and the smoke turns into a tarrasque.
Dosent stat drain still work? Somthing that drain cha would be good. It wouldent kill the bugger but it would take him out of the figth for good.

You are right. Still, an hibernated Tarrasque isn't hurting anything.
Edit: I'm not getting how the cultists should be able to get it out from the plane short of divine intervention. There's no way the cultists could find the Tarrasque (no spell, except Gate, can be cast or affect something inside a dead magic plane, so no divination). The only thing that is close to something useful to the cultists is a Blackfire Adept, who can ignore some rules on where he can summon creatures (but not from).
If any has seen my other thread about "what is the hardest monster/bbeg to defeat" All of these reasons in this tread is why I think the tarrasque is the hardest monster to defeat.
Plus plz mention if you have killed a tarrasque
Thanks!
defeat isn't the same as kill.
it pretty much is.
Well, once upon a 3.5 ago, a combination of Magical AIDS (Cleric cast Contagion and selected HIV, since we were being eaten my White Blood Cells) and Damnation from INSIDE it's heart worked when we had to fight it. Course, the planet was half eaten by the time we managed that so it is not a complete victory.
Bonus points: We then had a planet made from a Tarrasque corpse. =)
That is awesome
Shoot it out of a cannon...into the sun.
Put on sunglasses. Que: YEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!
it pretty much is.
nah you gate that thing onto the sun, it aint dead but it sure as hell didn't win that fight.

Oh, man, I really hated all those times I got sent to the sun. So annoying. Nothing to eat, and the whole place smells a bit like farts.
Luckily, somebody always gates me back to terrorize some enemy somewhere. I always make sure to thank him by CHOMPING him last.

Mwhaa ha ha ha ha!
Don't need to kill a Tarrasque. Just send him to Jandely, let him duke it out with the Oliphant.

Hide the entire party somehow in its food supply. When you are all swallowed, make sure you have acid resistance, then pop out and blow it up from the inside!

And 18 seconds after you do that, I'm back! CHOMP!!! (this time I'll make sure to chew my food before swallowing).

DAMN IT! already?
I wish my Dm would allow me to be a tarrasque as my race.

some booklett some some third party has the tarrasqueling (sure someone will link it, PM me if no one does and your actually interested i'll look through my PDFs)
you have to eat 4 times as much(but can eat anything) and have a regeneration of 1 HP per day(allows for limb reattachment and what not but doesn't give you fast healing essentially). kinda fun, almost played one, but campaign went away.

But arent you killing yourself then also?

Actually, it is immune to fire, and officially, a lot of generic fire creatures (along with some of the weird space creatures) live on the sun.
Since the fire creatures are actually not that impressive (elementals, efreet, salamanders- creatures that can be under CR 10)- I think regular physics are not at play here (ie- no crushing with the huge gravity).
So putting a tarrasque on the sun is more of an insult than anything (since Rovagug HATES Sarenrae).

With heart, faith, and steel... In the end there can be only one.
I agree with lemeres

Asmodeus prefers live property to dead. You'll have to devote yourself to him.
Oh noes. Whatever shall I do?

Try kindness.
It'll never see THAT coming.
