Hungering tendrils ?

[Scorpion]

I have done the expedition and love the new ship.
I have started again and find it quite enjoyable up to the point of getting the nasty little worms to appear I got one then nothing, tried everything even going into the crater where they come from.
Any ideas ?

i found all of mine on the sides of the mountains on that planet that is covered with them... in my case, i took them out while i was trying to get up to my base building area at the top of the mountain... i think that was the 4th planet not sure ATM...

If you select that milestone your visor can point you towards the "Titan worm" objects. They are a tall tree like flora with a large bulb on top.

If you fly slowly over the tops of those large plateaus your ship can even show you the red worm marker and the tendrils will even pop out and attack your ship.

There's usually only 4 per Titan worm.

Bonus: this weekends event is the same thing

Okay so what about AFTER The Expedition is done? Where can one find them then?

There are planets that are labelled as 'Infested' which commonly have the titan worms.
The number of titans will vary. As the titans move about they will deposit the tendrils marked by red 'worm' icons that can be seem while scanning. The picture above is from the 5th rendezvous planet in Expedition 4.

They may appear on the more 'extreme' challenging planets and in other locations too. If you google Expedition 4 called 'Emergence' online, the rendezvous planets had them. That was the expedition that introduced the tendrils. You may also find portal addresses for expedition 4 rendezvous locations and can go visit.

I think this picture is from one of the other rendezvous planets, maybe the 3rd.
Here's some info on Expedition 4 copied from reddit for you and lists the rendezvous portal addresses.

Titan worm planets are everywhere though and if you stay long enough even on some quieter plans they can make you jump with an unexpected appearance. It's possible the recent update may have changed their distribution but I don't think it did. Maybe.
