Develop your pro in FIFA

In FIFA there are two ways to develop your Pro to a max level of 25. You can create or join a team and play in league and cup games, or play drop in matches. Drop in matches in FIFA are ok but can be chaos. Being able to invite friends or club members with now up to 5 pro players on each team. Without impacting your club record. Also you can now gain skill points to unlock traits same as in league and cup games playing for a team. You need to achieve a rating of 7 or above to level up quicker. So stay in position and try be a team player.

Every Pro player starts at an 80 rating and depending what position you choose will develop XP in different areas. XP stands for experience and as it grows so does your overall rating. Likewise you will unlock more and more skill points. Use these to unlock traits such as strength, pace, passing, tackling etc. There are lots of traits under the attributes menus to develop your pro player in different ways. Same as previous years, stamina, reactions, strength, interceptions, tackling, ball control, vision, shot power, weak foot etc etc.

What are Perks and Archetypes in Pro Clubs?

fifa 22 perks

New in FIFA 22 are Archetypes which give extra boost to particular areas. If you unlock Bull Archetype under Physical your pro will be boosted heavily in areas of strength. The Archetypes are very similar to Ultimate team chemistry styles. Artist, Maestro, Finisher, Sniper etc are the same, others are new such as Cheetah Archetype for pace. Each Pro can also have 3 perks from a choice of 26. 1 at the start and then another 2 unlocked at level 9 and 19. Some perks have boosts lasting for 15 mins in game such as Hot streak after you score a goal. Boosts all shooting attributes for the following 15 minutes. Also gives you Finesse Shot and Power Heading. Threaded pass gives swerve passing and 5 star weak foot etc. So pro players can be more unique. Everything unlocks from playing more games getting higher ratings.

Quickest way to level up your pro

More XP allows you to level up and unlock skill points for traits, archetypes and perks. We recommend playing dropins as a CM and doing lots of passes being available in spaces. Or create or join a club who are looking to level up and do well. Strikers who score lots or assist will level up quicker but that is easier in a team than drop ins. Use the skill points to add traits and be a better pro in games. Check out our FIFA traits explained page to see every trait. Remember in FIFA you earn XP and unlock skill points from teams and drop ins. Pro Clubs player @SamTapTap explains how levelling up works.
