Tarkus is rarely killed through shear damage, he usually gets thrown off the stage. Tarkus is so good because he can tank incredible amounts of damage and deals extremely high damage himself. Thing is Tarkus also has a tendency to play defensively, only attacking at odd intervals. If Tarkus was way more aggressive he could probably kill the golem before the player. If you can get him to do his two-hand running attack the damage is pretty insane in NG.
