I have nothing substantial to base this on, but it seems like prior to this event it was VERY hard to get weapons unless you farmed a location that had a weapon-possible battle. However, I do think that if this was an intentional "make good", they overdid it.

So, I'm gonna hold on to quite a few medals so that I can redeem them later for upgrade fodder on future good weapons.
