So far, Tartaronis isn't as impressive as the trailer made it out to be. It hits hard, but it's really slow. It's also smaller in game compared to the trailer (about the size of Odibatorasu or Ukanlos).

The main annoyance with this monster is you can't really attack it when it's swimming around in the sand cause just getting close to it will hurt you. Definitely want some Gunner support if you plan on getting a good kill time on it. I'll get some footage of it up as soon as I can.
