}}'''Plasma Monkey Fan Club''' is the [[Dart Monkey (BTD6)|Dart Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. Plasma Monkey Fan Club now has a more powerful [[Activated Ability]] that transforms up to 19 other Dart Monkeys and itself into fast-attacking [[Plasma Blasts (BTD6)|Plasma Monkeys]] for 15 seconds, with an ability cooldown of 50 seconds. Like [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Super Monkey Fan Club]], the ability can only transform Path 1 and Path 3 Dart Monkeys up to tier 2, and Path 2 Dart Monkeys up to tier 4.

Like [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Super Monkey Fan Club]], this upgrade can only transform up to (2-5-2) Dart Monkeys (can't transform [[Crossbow (BTD6)|Crossbows]] or [[Spike-o-pult (BTD6)|Spike-o-pults]]).

It prioritizes transforming non-transformed Monkeys closest to the one that activates the ability. If fewer than 19 eligible non-transformed Dart Monkeys exist on the map, the ability re-applies the transformation to some transformed Dart Monkeys, if any are present. This resets the transformation time of that Dart Monkey to 15 seconds.

{{BTD6 last updated|49.2|section=y}}Plasma Monkey Fan Club has very good synergy with [[Primary Expertise (BTD6)|Primary Expertise]] (or just [[Primary Mentoring (BTD6)|Primary Mentoring]]), since it gives cooldown reduction for the ability, stats increases (mainly [[pierce]] and [[attack speed]]), and free tier 1 and tier 2 (the latter only with Primary Expertise) upgrades to primary monkeys, making the upgrading of transformed Monkeys much cheaper.
{{BTD6 last updated|52.2|section=y}}
Plasma Monkey Fan Club has very good synergy with [[Primary Expertise (BTD6)|Primary Expertise]], as it gives ability cooldown reduction, a pierce and attack speed increase, and free T1 and T2 upgrades. {{BTD6|Primary Mentoring}} works as well but mainly loses free T2s. Like the previous upgrade, this tower is focused on high burst damage, and is thus nearly useless without its ability. It is recommended to either use another DPS tower or some form of stalling (e.g. [[Horned Owl]]) to alleviate downtime.


Like the previous upgrade, this tower is focused on burst damage, and not consistent DPS. To further increase its strengths it is recommended to get debuffers like [[Embrittlement (BTD6)|Embrittlement]] and [[Glue Strike (BTD6)|Glue Strike]].
PMFC is very powerful in Timed [[Boss Events]], being one of the fastest ways to defeat most Tier 1 and 2 Bosses when paired with debuffs such as [[Embrittlement (BTD6)|Embrittlement]] and [[Glue Strike (BTD6)|Glue Strike]]. It is also strong in [[Boss Rush]] for farming pops and saving up to the [[Apex Plasma Master]]. Note that debuffs are largely only necessary against Bosses rather than normal gameplay.


Its biggest weakness is being useless without the ability and a long ability cooldown. It is recommended to use another DPS tower or some form of stalling, such as [[Horned Owl]].
The transformed Dart Monkeys are best upgraded to 2-2-0 to maximize pierce and attack speed, but 0-2-2 can be bought if the extra track coverage and/or Camo detection is more useful than the pierce. After the upgrades have been bought, [[Triple Shot (BTD6)|Triple Shot]] can be considered to grant another speed boost for a low cost.
 
This upgrade is very powerful in timed boss challenges, since it is one of the fastest ways to kill most Tier 1 and Tier 2 bosses when paired with debuffs. It is also strong in [[Boss Rush]] for farming pops and saving up to [[Apex Plasma Master]].
