Well it feels similar in my opinion

On testing, Skull-4 seems to have higher dps and better accuracy on bosses with a few exceptions

1: Fighting revenant, it appears that plasma has a higher DPS. Currently I'm not entirely sure whether to use B11 or Plasma in the fight.

2: Plasma may or may not be better against Dione and Angra. Skull-4 sucks at Dione I know, Skull-4 does decently well on Angra I guess. Angra is a (censored) anyway

3: I think Plasma breaks walls faster but I'm not sure. Roughly speaking generally speaking (yes this somehow makes sense) Plasma does about 2k to walls in 45 shots, which empties in about 8 seconds or so. B11 does about 1000 damage to walls in 4 seconds as well, but Plasma needs to reload...or not, but yeah.

4: Skull 4 is strong yes but it's not exactly meant to fight normal zombies, and you may find it hard to kill minibosses such as Deimos and Ganymede. Juggernauts are awkward. I didn't really test out too much on Juggernauts since usually most people use B11, except in Nightmare/Other Annihilation maps where Skull-4 just tears them to shreds

5: Plasma seems to do..acceptably well on Sidewinder, maybe maybe not (Dem titans..but uh...yeah). It seems to do about as well as AT4CS give or take some against XT300

6: Plasma appears to be better than Skull-4 on Gluttony, it's too difficult to aim precisely at long range ironically due to the Skull-4's higher recoil, lower accuracy and Gluttony having a rather small weak spot.

I think that's all for now though..yeah.

In short, Plasma and Skull-4 are similar but they have their own roles I guess.
