How to Spend 4600 FC Points Efficiently: A Guide
When it comes to spending your 4600 FC Points in FC 25, efficiency is key especially if you are a busy person. In this guide, I’ll walk you through how to maximize your points to get the most coins and value, whether you're a trader, a draft player, or someone aiming to build a top-tier team early in the game.
Understanding Pack Value
The first option is to spend your FC points on the standard 7.5k packs. By purchasing these packs, you’ll typically get around 1.5 to 2k coins per pack in quick-sell value WORST CASE SCENARIO, depending on the items you receive you could receive more.
This means that by spending all 4600 points on these packs, you should expect to make at least 50k coins MINIMUM, although ideally, it could be closer to 75k to 100k or beyond if you have the pack luck on your side. One thing to remember is that contracts and player positions, which used to boost value, are no longer present, we do not know what EA will fill the packs with, but assume tifos/balls etc.
Benefits of Draft Mode
Another option is to spend your points on Draft Mode, but this depends on your skill level. If you regularly reach the finals or semi-finals, Draft Mode can be highly rewarding with access to better packs, such as for winning to obtain a 100k Pack. However, the draft will be filled with top-tier players, so if you're not consistently winning, it may not be worth it.
Draft mode also has an advantage beyond the rewards—it gives you the chance to test out high-level players like Mbappe before committing to buying them, which can help you plan your future squad. A good balance between playing and earning, especially if you are a good player. I would suggest this really for Rank 3+ players and above.
Maximizing Coin Value
When it comes to timing, it’s important to spend your points as soon as the game launches. Player prices are highest during the first few days. For instance, players like Kessié or Danjuma, who may not seem like top-tier cards, often start at high prices and quickly plummet. By opening packs early and selling players right away, you can maximize your coin return and reinvest in a stronger team for better rewards/progress in Rivals.
See below Kessié’s price last year:
The Ideal Strategy
If you're a top-tier player, the best strategy is likely a split. Spend half of your points on packs to get quick coins, and then use the remaining points that you have remaining on Draft Mode. This allows you to test players, improve your team, and get solid pack rewards. If you're not confident in Draft Mode, it’s better to stick to opening packs and selling players quickly.
Avoid holding onto your points for future promotions like Team of the Year/Black Friday—by then, the same players will be worth far less, and you’ll have missed out on using a stronger team early in the game cycle, and having more coins to improve your performance, which ultimately accumulates and multiplies.
If you are going to purchase additional FC points, it would be probably worth just to open packs in its entirety as the window of value for some of these lower rated gold players will decline as time goes on.
Conclusion
The key takeaway is to spend your FC points early. By selling players right when the game launches, you can maximize your coin return and invest in a stronger team. Whether you choose to focus on packs or Draft Mode depends on your skill level, but a balance between the two is often the best approach for most players. This will help you build a powerful team, get better rewards, and set yourself up for success in FC 25.
Will the value go uo again when the early access is over and the game is launched officially? 27th this year? Will that be the high?
