No Man’s Sky Breach Tendrils Guide
The Tendrils milestone in the Breach update sends you out to hunt dangerous worm nests scattered across corrupted planets. The objective sounds vague, but it’s straightforward once you know what counts and where to look.
How to Complete the Tendrils Milestone
Pin the Tendrils milestone in your log so the burrow icons show up more clearly. The goal is to destroy five Hungering Tendrils that spawn from Titan Worm burrows. You’ll usually find them on corrupted or dissonant worlds that appear later along the expedition route.
Fly into orbit and use your ship scanner to locate worm burrows on the planet’s surface. They appear as circular marks on your HUD. Land nearby and move in slowly until the tendrils emerge. Use your multitool or ship weapons to destroy them. Once five are defeated, the milestone will complete automatically.
Where to Find Worm Burrows
Burrows are most common on corrupted or dissonant planets. They can appear near other expedition objectives or around later rendezvous systems. Each site spawns several tendrils, so you might finish the goal in just one or two fights.
If no burrows appear, pulse your ship scanner while flying low over the surface until you see a purple marker named Worm Burrow. Some players also find them by revisiting worlds where Titan Worm events happen during storms.
Combat Tips
Use your Boltcaster or Blaze Javelin for quick kills
Keep moving to dodge the shockwave when tendrils erupt
Loot the area after the fight, burrows can drop valuable worm parts
If the fight bugs out or no new tendrils spawn, reload or move to a new burrow
Final Blurb
The Tendrils milestone in the Breach update only sounds intimidating. All you need to do is locate Titan Worm burrows, take out five Hungering Tendrils, and move on. It’s a short, fast milestone that clears easily once you know which planets to target.
