The Link Gun is an Advanced Plasma Rifle. While the primary firing mode of the Link remains the same as its plasma-firing predecessor, the secondary cutting torch has been replaced with a switchable energy matrix. Upon contacting a teammate, it converts to a harmless carrier stream, offloading energy from the onboard cells to boost the output of any targeted player also using the Link. It should be noted that while players are boosting a teammate, they are unable to defend themselves from attack.

The primary fire can shoot plasma projectiles on full-auto. One plasma projectile itself does not deal a high amount of damage but a lot of them can be devastating. The projectile speed is relatively slow though, making the link gun good for shooting at short range (unless the target is immobile). 

The secondary fire shoots a green plasma torch with a limited range. This torch can be used to damage short distance target or heal vehicle and turrets. But the most useful thing to do with the link gun secondary fire in Monster Mash is to link other players to increase damage and get easy experience.

Tips

In Monster Mash you can link your Link Gun up to a teammate’s by using secondary fire on them while they’re using the Link Gun as well. This will increase your attack damage and share the experience earned by the shooter among the other linkers. There is two way to link someone: The Link Chain or the Link Cluster. See the General Guide: Linking section for detail.
