(on a side note, is it even possible to get R4 weapon drops through the Gold Weapon Medals? I've had a few R4 Characters, never a weapon). I'm convinced that the R4 weapon drop rate is horribly worse than that of R4 characters. Of the thousands of gold weapon medals I've cashed in over my playing career, I've got a grand total of three R4 weapons - and one of them was a duplicate! Should I sell every R1,R2,R3 card I have or use them to upgrade others? Sell every R1; they don't provide enough EXP to be useful. Very early in the game, use some trans-scanned R2s in your deck; once you move on to a full deck of R3s, then you can start selling R2s and/or using them as upgrade fodder. I've got an all-R4 deck and I tend to sell 60%-75% of my R2s these days, using the rest as upgrade fodder.
