A few things to make the Feast more active next season with rewards with least work

[TiaHariberux3]

Why not just give us a NPC with rewards that you can buy based on the tier you have currently. Lets say you are bronze you can buy some gear (not that cool ofc) etc. and for diamond you can exchange the currency you get for a mount, cool looking gear etc. That would make people aim for the specific tier like diamond but also keep new players in because they can get rewards for their tier. Sure it wouldnt be so exclusive like the rewards we have currently but I think making the rewards even more impossible to get for new people isnt a good way to keep the mode active.

not only for new players, i think this mode is a fight for the top 100, all the players not fighting for this don't have any reason to queue.
it include : new players, casuals players but also already well classed players,
so only players stucked between silver and gold have a good reason for queueing.
it's why your idea is not wrong,
why not let all the players get the same gear but the color change if you are ranked higher :
bronze gear
silver gear
gold gear
platinium gear
diamond gear
it can be the same gear with different color till you reach gold, and shining gear for platinium and diamond.

This is true and I agree, but when SE only releases 1-2 new armor sets per large patch I am skeptical they would actually devote time to add in a unique set for every tier just for PVP. We can be hopeful I suppose.

This is probably a more realistic idea than the previous one. You just have to prevent the gear from being dyeable as currently it seems as though the top 100 rewards are dyeable. This would be to prevent people being bronze looking like a gold player with gold dye, make people get better to look better.
