Please revert to old item tier list from PoE1 (lower tier = better gear)
So one of the change that was made to gear was this weird decision to reverse the tier list for mods.
This not only confuses veterans at times, but creates more confusion when people start with PoE2 then decide to play PoE1 and go "why is this backwards?" The traditional tier system where the lower the number meant better gear is FAR superior. It results in players always knowing that "Tier 1 items are the best" and regardless of what tier gear started at, we always knew the closer to tier 1, the better the item. The reversal of this now leaves me confused when looking at items as I can no longer tell AT A GLANCE if an item is good or not by tier. I don't know what the max tier for each item category is, but in PoE1, I did not NEED to know because it was self intuitive, lower tier = better gear. Less knowledge was required. Everytime I look at an item with a high tier in PoE2 I always end up asking the question "how many tiers are there for this stat???" Even hovering the tier info on the mods just repeats basic info instead of listing how many "tiers" there are for that particular stat. Please go back to the more intuitive solution from PoE1. This is honestly a "fix" to a non-issue design.

The lowest number being the "highest" tier never made sense to me. Playing close to 2000 hours of PoE made me used to it, but I still prefer the change. And PoE2 is the perfect moment to adjust little things like that.

Or at least it could be listed not TX, but TX/Y - this way it does not matter which way you sort it.
