I had to look up what a tarrasque was. Good God, what a can of fuck you.

as far as I know they were nerfed for the 5th edition. It's still a huge sack of health but AFAIK you can stay out of range by just flying over its head. Lore-wise, it's a walking natural disaster that destroys anything that enters its maw, even magical artifacts.

This is because WotC designs for mass appeal, so their monsters need to be fair challenge even for an underoptimized group. Which makes them pathetically weak if you're playing with anyone else.

Also, because playtesters at Wizards don't use any magic items for some reason

Wait, they don't use magic items!? What the actual fuck? Of course it'll be hard if half the party literally can't hurt it!

Yes, this baffles me as well.
