My favorite map is also aberration, so I’ll go with my second favorite. First off, here’s my ranking of the maps, no free maps included because I have yet to try them.
Extinction. It’s boring in my opinion, the corrupted creatures are cool n’ all, but they feel like they aren’t hard enough. And to be honest, the coolest part of the map is in the hardest part, so you have to be prepared to go there.
Scorched Earth. This map REALLY needs a huge TLC.
Genesis part 2. The tek suit. It makes it too easy and flyers have no point of being tamed, except for the new R-variants. Rockwell’s innards/proliferation is not really hard because of the Tek jet pack, it should really be disabled so Rockwell’s innards/proliferation can be what the devs wanted it to be. Also literally everything added with gen 2 is way too OP. Tek surveillance camera, mini gun, and the maewing are probably on the less op side of things. Are they bad? Never. Should you use them? Yes, use them if your in pvp. We also can’t forget about the space dolphin. The devs really should have looked at it in a pvp perspective.
Genesis part 1. This map is in my top 3 because of the challenge to it. Yes, I know you can’t build in mission zones and they get boring when you have to grind them, but everything else is good. Difficulty? Hard, not for new players. You need to be able to outrun kaprosuchus and everything you hate early game in the bog. I think it’s a really unique map, it’s just the missions that kinda ruined it. Difficulty is what really makes me like this map.
The island. I’m explaining this later.
Aberration. Basically what HJK said, very unique and cool map.
Ok, here’s why I like the island, here’s the pros and cons
Pros
It’s the first map, and if you’ve played it and completed it, you know where everything is.
It’s easy to transfer off.
It has some decent base spots, along with a lot of creatures.
I wish I could think of more pros, so I’m moving on to the cons.
Cons
Everything is usually a low level, and high levels are rare.
It’s hard to tame thylacoleo because they are on the trees.
It takes a while to actually get an army for the bosses on official servers.
I’ve run out of pros and cons, but yeah that’s my opinion. Extinction is boring, SE needs big TLC, Gen 2 brought way too op things, I like Gen 1 because of the difficulty, Island is good, aberration is a very unique map.

Dilo Girl, HJK, PD, anyone from pre2023 Silver and prior to the rebuilding of Achatina!!!
This is PrimalApex, I am from Achatina and joined the fanfiction community there in March of 2023, and didn’t find about anything in the dyes until 2024. BUT I need your help. I come here with disturbing news that I need help with. And I need someone to help me absolutely verify this.
It’s about Tina.
I know everyone has said she died, I legit told someone this, and that Peter, her brother came in here and confirmed it himself. But I know there was some sort of fiasco with a person ‘impersonating’ her called Cherades cause I had to look just now.
To make long story short, after I told this person that she died, I got real curious about her and look for her old posts. I was looking for any of her older posts on here to find a start date and put any information I can on her in our Fandom to properly memorialize her there. I was looking through the creature posts because it can verify the account and show you what other stuff they have posted in the past on a creature story post (for some reason dyes are anonymous posts so you can’t verify) and I found a post from Tina’s account, in December of 2022 going by the name of Charmer. Now I had checked before doing my dive into the creature posts and saw Peter’s announcement of Tina’s happened in August of 2022. Which means this should be impossible. But, there was also that other run in ‘FakeTina/Cherades’ in December. So is this fake too? It is from her old account that posted stories, so is it real???
I need to ask anyone here, anyone who has Discord and is on the Silver Dye’s Discord if anyone, someone has verifiable proof that Tina is really dead. Cause this is breaking it if it is real.
I am not here to stir up controversy, I am not here to open old wounds, I am not here to do anything but find the truth. If you want to verify my evidence, please do so. Go to Bing (Google won’t do it anymore, at least for me), and look up “Survival: a fan made story — Chapter one Dododex”, Copy and Paste it and go to Bing. Or go to the Achatina Fandom and ask to see the evidence from PrimalApex. I WILL SHOW IT TO YOU!! Please, I beg of anyone who can, please prove to me we had solid proof Tina died. Because I am afraid that all we have is the word of Peter, I think a terrible mistake happened. And it hurting me to think about it.
Please, somebody, anybody, if you don’t believe me come to Achatina, and use the website version to see the stories. I can prove this is genuine and I am the genuine PrimalApex. I just need someone to help me lay this rest. Please, anyone?
Until Next Time,

(Who is actually tearing up)
Hi, I have decided to try to write stories starting in silver dye. I am a new ark player so bear with me.
My start:
I woke up in an unfamiliar world. I look around, and all I can remember is my name, Blue. I feel a pinch on my arm and look down at it. I see a gem. I try to rub it off but I can’t. I walk over and start punching a tree. I get wood and thatch in my gem. Then, I punch a rock. That gives me flint, stone, and 1 metal. I tap the gem and look inside. It looks like a computer. I see different parts. I tap something called an eneagram and unlock a axe and fire. Then, I unlock a pickaxe. I use the axe to get more wood and thatch and the pickaxe to get stone and flint. I get no metal this time. I look in my crystal agian and see a crafting part. I craft a fire. I run in the forest and feel pain. I look down and see tiny dinosaurs. I start running away but they follow me. They kill me. I wake up agian, confused. I look around. I think “I must have somehow respawned.” I tap my crystal and see a message. I look at it and it says “you have been killed by a level 3 compy. I see a green beacon of light. I run to it. I find myself in the same place I was where I died last time! I look around apprehensively. I can’t see the compy.
More hopefully coming soon. -Joy
Feels like I’ve discovered an ancient landmark in Dododex.
A hidden community hidden away in a random place.
Arguing and chatting on the most random subjects.
I think they even made a discord.
Fascinating to know Dododex isn’t just a wiki for some, it’s a community.

okay, but, what the shuck is going on here, who is Tina (rip if it was real tho), who is dtg, I needa read allo’ this lore to get caught up, seriously tho, this silver coloring tips section is completely bizarre.
5 years ago this was me. Bruh I'm in college now...
