Ok, so I'm on a cell right now, so bear with me...
As for defense tiers, those are the actual in-game tiers. A total of 3200 defense (1600 each) begins the "D" tier (the tiers themselves I think are useless). So yes, additional defense over 2000 does do something.
As for weapon attack, three shots from a 105 atk weapon is less damaging than one shot from a 315 atk weapon. Now keep in mind this is only always true with EN weapons, as they have no damage variation. As for shell weapons, say a rifle might have variation of +1.401percent, -1.010percent, a grenade's variations will be different, like +1.255, -1.300. All I can say definitively, is that for shell weapons, lower atk weapons (rifles, snipers, missiles) tend to give better bang for your buck than hi atk one like the 'nades...unless that low atk weapon is a MG
