Exactly. It is rather comparing tartarians to summons from other schools. For example nature summons, that are well... pathetic?

Hmm... I wouldn't call a Tarasque pathetic. With a great stat line, about 250 HP, regeneration, recuperation, poison cloud, etc. a simple astral empowerment is enough to complete the 'super beast' with luck and ethereal.

Actually a single or dual astral empowerment makes it very vunerable to mind duel. Not too much of a problem in SP games, but definitely an achilles heel in MP games.

I used Tartarians too, and sure they are powerfull, but after a few fights you can rename them to 'Affliction Lord'. I think I prefer the Tarasque.

The Tartarians are easily more powerful due to the number of available item slots and they already arrive with magic paths when not feebleminded. It's easy for Tartarians to avoid future afflictions using a single regeneration item and a single luck item. The overall package deal comparrison is why MP gamers use nature gems to GiftofReason Tartarians instead of summoning a Tarrasque.
I'm hoping the upcoming "Shattered Soul" trait will nerf Tartarians to the point where other SCs are seen more often during late game. It seems no one knows the effects of "Shattered Soul".
