How do you actually kill Tube Worms? or do I have the wrong creature?

[jrubz]

Trying to complete hunting tube worms for expedition, and I'm assuming this means garbage worms, but the issue is spears don't kill them at all. Is there another way I need to get rid of them or am I thinking of the wrong creature I need to hunt?

[Big Mistake]

I'm assuming it refers to either Worm Grass or Garbage Worms which are unkillable as far as I know. Unfortunately there are some quests that haven't been filtered out yet which are impossible (like getting a kill MLL quest on a scug that has no MLLs in their world)

Unfortunately all you can really do is complete the other quests and end the expedition early by going to the depths while the dev continues filtering them out. May be worth reporting the bug on the discord as well if you have the time.

Could tube worms refer to grappling worms?

you sure this is not Pole Plant? easily killed by either 3 spears or 1 explosive spear; reincarnates next cycle as Monster Kelp

They're referenced as Pole Mimics in expedition quests.

The grapple worm idea could be it, though. Worth a shot at least.

The grapple worms code name is tubeworm, yes. (and they are tubular - rolling around the outside of their grapple string)

this isnt right
pole plants is not a tube worm, also they only need 1 spear, also they dont necesarily turn into kelp

Tube worms are also grapple worms, those blue things with string.

finally realized that and got them. Was just weirded out by the name for a second since not all naming conventions from the community are always consistent.
