While rare, the dragon Tarasque will occasionally descend from the Churning Mists to foul the weak minds of heretics seeking truth in the words of the enemy. This opportunity to slay the master manipulator cannot be allowed to slip through our fingers.

Guide

Tarasque

Dragon Stomp: Tarasque will prepare to stomp on the ground, creating huge circle Proximity based AOE around itself. The closer a player is to the center, the more damage it will do.
- For players standing within melee range, the damage can be lethal - so it's recommended to run to the edges of the arena to mitigate the damage.
After reaching about 50% HP, a few Barb of Tarasque adds will be summoned to the battle.

Additional Information

Although a smaller group can complete this FATE, it is highly recommended to have a full party (at least) to do this FATE due to the boss's HP.

Tarasque is also vulnerable to Stun, and stunning will cancel the Dragon Stomp - but the boss will often use it again right after. It may be possible to unsync right before the stomp hits, or have an unsynced shield healer shielding others before it goes off. If a Blue Mage with Perpetual Ray is present, then it is possible to keep Tarasque in an endless stun loop as it attempts to recast the spell.
