Use Weapons in Combat

To raise Proficiency for any weapon quickly, the best way to do so is to use it in combat. While all weapons gain some Proficiency at the end of a mission, the actively equipped weapon type will gain the most.

Enter Skirmishes For Quick Gains

If you want to boost your weapon Proficiency before a major battle, consider taking on Skirmishes. These small-scale battles appear frequently on the World Map and are quick and straightforward, making them an efficient way to earn weapon EXP and gain a Proficiency Point.

Prioritize New Weapons

Prioritize the enhancement of Proficiency on newly acquired weapon types, as they unlock Proficiency Points quicker compared to weapons with higher Proficiency, which relatively require more EXP to upgrade.

In the example above, raising the proficiency of a lower-level Gauntlet is more efficient than a higher-level Sword, as unlocking another Proficiency Point on the Gauntlet requires only 500 EXP compared to the Sword's 7,679 EXP requirement.

Use Arborgreen To Increase Proficiency Gain

Arborgreen is an item that increases proficiency gain by 200% until you defeat 100 enemies. Use this item to get more proficiency as a reward!
