As far as the Type D, i'm not a big fan of DD guns in general as most DDs really only use meta type set ups (TCI,AACI) so amassing giant armory of guns that never get used is kind of meh. At this point, i'm fine with my 2 Type Ds, and have all PFD ships + 2 extra PFDs, so i'm going for medals.

Not necessarily.

At this point there are 3 quests that grant a catapult, and this newest quest is the first actual quest in quite some time (as per my understanding). Other times the protopult has been rewarded has been from Events, where someone is, at most, going to get 1 and only on Medium or Hard Difficulties. Quests/events that may offer a protopult are temporary/one-off things (such as the food event we just completed).

The way I see it, is that when Hyuuga gets her K2, it will be set up kind of like the Winter Event rewards; by completing the event, a player will have the materials needed to get her to K2.

To be a bit more blunt on the topic, I say go for the protopult. Why? Because you don't know when another one will be offered as a reward (food event, seasonal event), and as it stands, there are a total of 5 ships that need a protopult to upgrade.

Medals are a bit harder to come by, but a lot of their instances are repeatable.

While nice, the D K2 guns are limited in value/use. As Sebby7 mentioned, they are only optimal on certain DDs...which are likely going to be equipped with something other than guns. this means that they will most likley spend more time taking up space/collecting dust than being of any real use.
