IIRC, Buffy at the begining of Season One was basically just starting. Just found out what she could do and learning to adjust to it, right? In LOTR analogy, that would make her on par with the hobbits in the fellowship (Merry & Pippin have 1 advancement each, Sam has 2, and Frodo has 6).
A PC with 100 episodes of experience will be equivalent to Season Five Buffy.
So continuing my comparison, maybe, after decades of experience fighting the forces of the shadow, the hobbits would be more on par with Aragorn's 68 advancements, no?
