For those of us whose horses are alive, can someone loop us in on this one?

RAW, the 5e tarrasque is helpless against flying creatures like the aarakocra.

Tarrasque is a 0-10 matchup against a lv 1 birdman with a bag of rocks. Absolutely wild

Well, 4e had the solution all along (yes, I'm referring to my old post on Reddit)

My friend you may have been the very first person to resurrect this horse here.

Do you realize what that means?

You are now the dread horse.

( neigh !!!)

If you reject the title, I will give it to another.

But I have a question. Why no Owlin?! They even all have stealth so they can sneak the fuck up on the Tarasque with a giant gun.

Thank you for this meme!

Lol hiya, I recall you from the subreddit as well. Glad to see familiar faces around!

I homebrew a composite tarrasque with abilities from all editions… and I’ve found that I don’t even need the earth binding aura to bring ranged attackers down. All you need is the reflective carapace, so missed attacks bounce back and hit someone else instead, and maybe give the big T a nice sized jump so it can simply leap up into the air to catch fliers like a dog catching a frisbee.

But even the jump may not be necessary if you remember that tarrasques burrow like bullettes (land sharks), and the party probably needs to, for example, protect a city from being eaten, not just kill it in a field. So they have to come close just to deal with the burrowing.

And don’t forget to give the tarrasque its nigh-immortality back. Bringing it to 0 hp shouldn’t kill it. You need to bring it to 0 and then cast wish.
