I mean, why not?
I know we have the T1 gear-restricted NWs, but why couldn't we have Season NWs where all the Tiers would be unlocked and only categorized by max player count? This would be an awesome way for the more casual players to experience Node Wars. The ownership of the nodes on the Season servers would obviously have no effect on the normal servers, and the rewards for holding those nodes should also obviously be lower, and perhaps tailored to Season growth and the growth immediately after. Or it could be whole other kind of horizontal progress rewards, like skill point books, big EXP buffs, outfit pieces, fairy/horse/boat mats, etc.
After the Season ends, the nodes would then reset and the whole stuff starts again come next Season. Could maybe give 1-2 week grace period at the beginning of Season before the NWs start so enough players could get their characters leveled and geared.
theres t1 and t2 nws for new players
