Conduit additions

there are 2 main things from conduit that disappointed me, while i love it for the most part i think their passive should be switched to something small but nice. and her looks are pretty bad, i want some skins that just completely cover her face with some cool type of mask.

ideas for new conduit passives (obviously not all of them at once)

1. give her a passive shield regen just like Wattson

2. for only herself, her tactical shield doesn't wear off. meaning she gets to keep it forever. (could also instead increase the duration of it on yourself)

3. using a shield cell could give you 25 (or less) extra temporary shield

4. after reviving a team mate they instantly gain 50 temporary shield 

any of these passives would be very nice, while i don't think any of them are going to particularly make conduit that much better, i do think that if they were instead of her current passive it would suit more and actually feel a lot nicer.

    @enogelb Some of the issue I had with Conduit is there just isn't enough there to want to use her. The shield for instance is only temporary and doesn't offer enough protection to keep someone alive, and the ultimate is too weak to do any substantial damage.

    The ability to sprint to your allies is nice, but I think she either needs a buff or some kind of additional skill to put her in the same class of usefulness as Valkarie, Wraith, Revenant, or Pathfinder, units that have more than one reason to choose them. Right now Conduit basically only does one thing, and it isn't that game changing.

    @enogelb I do agree her passive is quite situational and seems to reward not playing as a close knit team.

    1 is another characters so it's not her own.
    2 is OP tho. That's basically a free battery.
    3 is revs ult and OP
    4 is too much although I could see 25 being ok.

    @AymCTLConduits tactical is game changing and really good in a good players hands. That tactical means you can get cracked and have shield again before the other team pushes. Or you can push the other team if you cracked them as now you are healthier.

    I love getting good aggressive conduits on my team.

    @hayhor to be fair things like octanes fast passive heal, newcastles passive is insane. or maggies passive. a passive can be amazing. and i do think that my ideas are mostly a step below these, and could be tweaked. but i would just like something more for her

    @enogelb Octanes heal is handy but not OP at all. Newcastles is situational and can be countered pretty easily. Maggie's depends on a type of gun, which is currently off meta. Conduits is as good as all of those.

    The OP passives are Horizon, Bangs, catalysts. You know, the characters that are meta in algs. Conduit is going to get used in algs because her tactical and ultimate are quite useful. She won't be on every team but she will be on 25% of them I bet.

    @hayhor This is a good point. I think a lot of the randoms I've played with probably didn't know the best ways to use her.
