Red Angel Drops

I waited months to get my first Red Angel and got one a few months ago and then quickly FF her with gold cites Since she was introduced, that was the only Gauntlet only character drop I have received. In the last 3 days, I have received 3 of them making me consider carrying my first duplicate character. Has anyone else seen an increase of Red Angel drops recently? 3 in 3 days seems insane.

I have two Red Angels, one immo, one 4/5,
Two Armus’ one immo, one 3/5
Two Guinan’s, one immo, one 1/5
One Locutus, 4/5 (one of those came from gauntlet rounds achievement)
One Caretaker 2/5
All drops, no cites. Keep in mind, I have been playing for 4+ years, but still, that’s just my personal story

With Red Angel, Armus and the Caretaker, I got one or two really soon after they were introduced. But then it always took a lot of time to get the next one. I finished Caretaker and Armus only a short time before they were replaced and I only habe RA at 3/5. Haven't seen a drop in quite a while.
As for duplicates, I suppose it depends on the state of your crew. If you’re really hurting for crew with the Angel’s skill combo, it might help to have a second one on hand.
Also, I’ve only got one dup Gauntlet card, and that was one of Armus; I airlocked him. But Red Angel is not the single use specialist that Armus is, so you may find a second one useful for voyages and the like.
Gauntlet crew are profiency driven, but, at FFFE, they can great for shuttles or voyages. Red Angel and the Guinan both have event potential for their character. With those two especially, I can see the use of duplicate crew. They are relatively easy fused Golds.
I did the same thing on Guinan, it was the final star anyway.
As it happens, she didn't drop again until years later...
All from gauntlet drops + 1 caretaker airlocked, figured 2 cards ff'd of same crew is enough. haven't received gauntlet drop in last 2 months.
Same as both of you...all the other gauntlet special crew are immortal for me but Guinan has sat at 2/5* for years. Both stars dropped during her run as the featured crew (one from a nine-win streak and the other from a reward box for finishing in 40somethingth place) and I haven’t seen her since.
4/5 Caretaker
3/5 Armus
No Guinan, no Locutus, no Angel - so I don't see any icrease in drops.
I have never had gauntlet crew drop.
