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]]).

Compared to Monkeys transformed by Super Monkey Fan Club, Monkeys transformed by Plasma Monkey Fan Club gains +1 damage, +3 pierce, and +100% attack speed. In total, transformed Monkeys have a base attack cooldown of 0.03 seconds, 2 damage, and 5 pierce. Additionally, they inherit any pierce, attack speed, range, and camo detection upgrades, and be given a minimum range of 40. They do not inherit the increased projectile count from [[Triple Shot (BTD6)|Triple Shot]].

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.

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]].

Line 36:

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]].

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]].

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]].

For crosspaths, they matter more for each transformed Dart Monkey, with pierce being preferred in general cases, but range for coverage and if Camo detection is required.
