Why is discordance still better at tier 1?
Discordance tier 1 is literally better than discordance tier 3 and it's still not swapped.

The devs are terrible at balancing this game, see hillbilly changes, and refuse to admit they're wrong when their playerbase calls out their stupidity.

Yes, Discordance 1 gives you the notification more often, but thats not necessarily a good thing. For me, tier 1 is spamming the notifications to offten, it's annoying. If it activates, you either chase someone else, then having noise every eight seconds is more distracting than every 12 seconds. And if you don't chase someone, you will likely head to the gen, when you don't need more of the notifications as well. It's not that every notification gives you a speed boost or something.
The only thing were teier 1 is better than tier 3, is knowing the survivor left the gen 4 seconds earlier. But there could still be one survivor continueing the repair. Esp. when they worked longer on the gen, you should check the gen regardless to prevent its completion, so the four seconds do not really mean anything. Furthermore, usually the survs will only leave the gen when they hear your TR (or spine chill procs), so when you get near. Then you will likely be near enough to see them, or at least their scratchmarks. So again the four second less shouldn't have much of an impact.
On the other hand, it can happen that you see the discordance icon lightening up, but you are distracted and can not imidiately look which gen it was. The shorter duration in tier 1 can then actually prevent you from seeing the yellow aura, where you would have seen it with tier 3. Sure that's an edge case, but it happens from time to time.

Not everyone thinks that. I for example prefer it at rank 3, and CaulDrohn explained very well the reasons to prefer it this way.
