Character Proficiency is a stat that measures the experience that you have gained with a specific character in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. There are over 180 characters that you will be able to unlock as you progress through the arena fighter and Character Proficiency is the measure of mastery that you have gained with each of them.
There are seven mastery levels per character, and every time you reach a new level, you will receive a notification that your character proficiency has increased. Character Proficiency is, however, not tied to Player Level, which is the measure of your collective EXP across the game.
Here is a guide that goes over everything you need to know about Character Proficiency in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero.
Does Character Proficiency impact gameplay in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero
As mentioned Character Proficiency just shows the mastery that you have achieved on a character in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. So the system does not affect gameplay much and once you reach Proficiency Levels 1,4, and 7, you will receive rewards from Zen-Oh which include icon titles as well as Zeni.
So if you are thinking that a higher proficiency level will increase the effectiveness of the character that you are using, that will sadly not be the case. Higher proficiency will only unlock cosmetic rewards.
