Guild Wars 2

Tired of being a small fish in a big pond? Tired of playing second fiddle to the blob guilds on your server? Looking for an opportunity to play and fight your way with other guilds who are willing to work together?

Devona’s Rest is the place for you!

We are a growing and friendly server and what we currently lack in numbers, we make up for in skill. DR groups consistently take down groups that outnumber us and we have fun doing it! So come be a part of something unique, something that isn’t the meta, something that you can help create. All we ask from any guild, or individual is that you come with an attitude of cooperation and willingness to help us rise as a family. It has to be fun!

The DR community loves working together and having fun with weekly events, activities, and raids, but our guilds are the heart of our community. Get to know our community and find the right fit for you!

Great community on DR except this guy ^^ lol but who doesn’t have people like that. Otherwise DR is a great place to be. Why not help the server make it make up into the higher tiers friendly people who care about eachother. Its a nice family/friendly environment to be in.

Help Loosmaster change his forum signature! Recruit him someone!

This is a great server. We don’t always win, but we are obviously trying to change that by recruiting here. We have fun always tho. Server events, class zergs, Mafia games on the forums, inter guild missions, and a generally strong sense of community for those that want to be a part of it Don’t just take our word for it, visit us at www.devonasrest.net and see the community activity there. It’s bustling, so you can imagine what it’s like in game!

Hope to hear from you soon!

We did not transfer bc the community was bad we transferred bc we are a fight guild and unfortunately there weren’t enough fights. The community is great and I still join them in teamspeak nonetheless

No where in my post did I question the community. Your statement is just as lame as every other guild on different servers that transfer to them, bleed it of players and leave under the guise of “We are a fight guild”. My complaint is with the PVF’ers ".

“We have fun always tho. Server events, class zergs, Mafia games on the forums, inter guild missions, and a generally strong sense of community for those that want to be a part of it Don’t just take our word for it, visit us at www.devonasrest.net and see the community activity there. "

There are two sides to every story, I’m just reporting the reality of not looking through the Rose colored glasses they all seem to be wearing.

Dear Loosmaster, while I can’t personally fund your transfer off this server, I will offer some advice. If you’re not happy somewhere – the door is always open. You didn’t sign a contract commitment to this server when you joined and you’re free to leave whenever you’re dissatisfied (which, for you, is often).

The majority of the loyal people who are here – are happy with the community, enjoy the fights that we have, as well as the roaming opportunities that present themselves, and are dedicated to making our server atmosphere fun and our events inclusive.

Sadly, you fall within the 0.5% of people who would rather kitten and moan on the forums than change their situation.

With all due respect, I simply do not understand your point of view here.
As to your screenshot, we’re T8. This is the world we live in. We have so little NA morning and night coverage, its not even funny. Well, it kinda is. But at 8:00 am my time, I would -not- be surprised to see this. BP is T7 at this point, lets face it. They have better coverage obviously, and more people.

We’re trying to work on that. I mean, cmon, why else would we have a giant recruitment thread if we didn’t want more people to come hang out with us?
This isn’t PvF; PvF is the drama you’ll get on the WvW forums.

As for[Boop], [Boop] is not an average “gash & dash” guild. You realize, they are tiny, exclusive, and let only their closest friends and the ‘best of the best’ in with them, because they’re roamers. They’re not the “get your sentinels and lets go” hammer train heroes. These are the guys that spend all day hanging out, and having a good time. They’ve been with us for so long. I honestly don’t blame em for going!

But that’s beside the point. You say there’s two sides of the story, but your complaint seems to be directed solely at the fact that… we have a forum thread dedicated towards advertising our server and community. And that our community isn’t always WvWing during irregular NA hours (though, might I point to our weekly, Sunday “Breakfast with a side of Zerg” event? not to be a shameless plug).

What is your side of the story?

Just wanted to make sure you knew nobody in my guild wasn’t originally from DR even the ones that transferred I personally transferred almost everybody in Boop to DR by myself. Therefore bleeding the server dry that wasn’t on my part Hope you have a wonderful day though. And I still stand behind my statement that DR is a great family-friendly oriented server for anyone looking for that. I can still join in on their website, Teamspeak, and even server events if i choose.

DR confirmed for best community NA, 10/10 would make great friends there again. The greatest lovers always draw the saltiest haters

I love DR. It’s been my home for a few years and this is a great server. Yes, we’re T8 at the moment but we keep it in perspective. This is a game, and it’s supposed to be enjoyable. We love competition and we wish to go higher, but if we’re having a bad week we make the most of it. Heck, I’ve seen server events where we had another rival server join in on the fun! But when we’re able to fight, we battle hard, and battle clean.
The pugs, the guilds, the commanders, the roamers…some of the best people I’ve ever played with. If you want a great community, come here.

As an outsider (For the Pass!), can confirm that DR has a great community. Their server website has really been growing over the past couple months, and they have a great core group of players invested in guaranteeing people can have fun without pretense

Plus the DR community has more of mom’s spaghetti than any other community. I guarantee it.

DR is so awesome, even our sentries use rams!

Also, rams are pretty OP in surprise open field combat. Just sayin’. (There were more dead bodies than the one shown)

all these food flavors yet you still choose to be salty

We even hold cross-server parties in our Citadel! Yay! Party it up people! <3

Sorry my graphics are pretty bad. I have to keep it low so I can actually play and stuff.

Still, DR is so chill it’s amazing. Our guilds often work together and our website is super-fun.

Once you join DR (and by join, I mean actually get to know the people and participate), you never really leave. I should know. I tried once. Pretty sure I got homesick and had to transfer back to DR. Will never regret it. Will probably also never leave again. It’s like a beautiful psychiatric hospital. We’re all pretty mad, but we do well together and it’s a beautiful piece of happiness.

This would be the case, if 85% of our members that were in the guild werent from off-server. Maybe next time you group us in with all these other fight guilds check up on your sauces.

I prefer rose colored glasses to poo covered words I’m sorry that you haven’t been as involved in the community or if you’re not winning you’re unhappy, but this is what we are right now. You can try and help and encourage people to come here, or hurt yourself and the server by posting negative feedback in a place that is actually TRYING to improve your DR experience by growing our population. By trying to hurt the PVFers, you are shooting yourself in the foot.

I love all of my server mates showing their support and love and as our BP friend said, we aren’t just putting up a “carebear faccade”. We have silly events like you see above and hang out as a community (in our forums, on Facebook, via Twitter, as well as in game) and that interaction is stronger every day! Join us #DRstrong

I have been with DR since I started playing this game, which was a month after everybody else started. I didn’t pick DR as every other server was full (DR was the only one available) and my husband had to transfer over so we could play together. For one I am glad the other servers were full because I have had a chance to play with some great people. We truly are a great community. We have had some struggles as well as some triumphs but it is the people with in the server that make it enjoyable.
Yes, we have had some guilds leave us and that can hurt any WvW community. It means we don’t have the coverage like other servers but we try come together and work hard.
What I am trying to say is, If you are looking for some fun even when we are being rolled over by another server, then DR is the place. Remember you need a sense of humor in the gaming world. This is where we come to get away from reality.

5/5 would recommend to a friend.

An excellent community of people, Devona’s Rest hosts a friendly atmosphere that is welcoming to both new and old players alike. A great mad house of hilarious people, that are sure to make your time in game worth while.

OMG are you the one who sings about spaghetti in WvW map chat? I…I think I love you.

Just wanted to say Hey to everyone & give a shout out for our server. Devona’s Rest is one of the best communities I’ve seen. I started out there moved around a bit after 2 years of being on DR then moved back… DR maybe lacking in numbers but we make up for that with persistence and fun.

Brought to you by the dedicated WvW players not the PVF’ers… Good comeback DR.

bumps for #moistserver, check out our livestreams! located on the left side of www.devonasrest.net

BUMP! transfers to Devonas Rest is only 500 gems!
Check us out! move an alt? or even a main?

This is one of the servers my guild and I are looking into. We are wanting to expand our WvW-base to members in our guild, even the newer ones, to be on our server with us when we do WvW. The only problem with our server is that we are full right now, and because of the recent WvW changes, I see the server staying semi-permanently full, so it’s not worth the time/effort in getting people onto a full server versus one that has a lot of space.

I will definitely consider looking into this server, as what I read looks awesome!

Lanthum, I transfered to FA from DR but still maintain an alt there. I would be glad to meet you in the FA TS and discuss DR before you make any decision to move. Bottom line is DR is a great server with great people. Like all servers, it has some drama but from what I’ve seen in the last few months of “lurking” on my alt, the drama is waaaaaayyyyhhh less than in T2. What you read above accurately represents the current state of the server. Yes, the population is low BUT, it’s a great, very welcoming community. I can provide more details if you want but my recommenfation would be take [WISE] to DR. Full Disclosure…I’m leaning towards taking my main from FA back to DR also. Let me know if you want to chat. I go by Nomo in game.

bumpity bump bump look at Devona"s Rest go, bumpity bump bump over the hills of foes. lol but seriously come check us out. were a really nice laid back community who just enjoy having fun and fighting in wvw while bein #moiststreaming presented live to you by Shokunin.

BUMPPPPPPP!

Bump for the server !

I don’t normally bump things, but this needs a little love. My guild returned to DR after about a 5 month hiatus on another server. Our original thought was we were going to wait out the server changes on our ded server because this was where we started. We came back and were blown away by the progress DR made in our absence regarding communication and coverage. No longer do we only have people on EB and DRBL, we have a little bit everywhere and people aren’t afraid to map hop to come help if a larger zerg is bashing on a keep gate in one of the maps. It’s really impressive and I think this is one of the reasons DR managed to get to T7 and is going to solidify their spot there. If you’re looking for a new server I encourage you to check out DR, it’ll be worth it.
