Cripes, you two anons above me, listen up. It doesn't MATTER if the Tentacle can't move. That's not what they're talking about. The 'faster' they're referring to is the attack period of the two. AKA, how many hits you can get in before whatever you're fighting tries to make you have one less face.

You can hit a Treeguard 3-4, sometimes 5 times (I've found size makes a slight difference in how long you have) before it'll take another swipe at you. However, what with a Tentacle's aggro range, it's ready to attack almost as soon as you're on top of it, giving you one hit before you have to dodge. A Treeguard also has pathetic range, while a Tentacle can hit you from farther away.

Lastly, a Tentacle hits you TWICE if you can't get away, for a total of 68 hp without armor, while even the largest Treeguard only hits for 62 (unarmored).
