FC 27 Archetypes, Masteries and progression guide

Overview

Archetypes define a player's build in The Grounds and Clubs. All Archetypes are available from the start, and players earn Archetype XP to improve attributes and experiment with different builds.

How it works

Individual attribute points can be reassigned without paying Credits or consuming a reset item. Masteries provide permanent cross-build attribute rewards for reaching milestones with different Archetypes, while Mods can temporarily change performance.

Practical tips and limits

Create separate builds for different positions instead of forcing one setup everywhere. Reallocate points when your role changes and check Mod affinity before equipping temporary boosts.
