Curiosity about open world PVP - High risk High reward

So, during alpha 2 there will be a couple zones that are completely open for PVP and, to my understanding, there will be rare resources and valuable stuff in those areas.
I also understand that these areas will be populated throughout alpha 2 and get turned into nodes as the map expands for the test.
My question is, does anyone know if, by launch, there will be grindeable/harvestable zones that are made for open pvp where there's really valuable stuff making the high risk/high reward thing viable?

Edit: I am asking specifically about places inland, not in the open seas.

Thanks!

    Sorry, I should have been clearer in the original post: I meant inland, in the main continent.

    So far there's been no plans to add forced pvp zones outside of the seas (and temporary stuff like node ruins).

    The lawless stuff in alpha is just there to represent/test the seas' gameplay.

    Interesting, thank you for the reply.

    Do you reckon the open seas will have like islands for grinding and stuff like that?

    Yes.

    Was mentioned in the PvP Livestream a couple years ago.

    certain events will auto flag anyone who goes into that area.
    also, just because there isn't an auto flagged area, it doesn't mean risk/reward isn't viable
