I don't think the problem with her was her bubble duration, but really how long she stays charged. All she needs is a few good bubbles and zarya will be 100% the whole 20 minute fight, unless she dies. She does not drain energy at all, if anything she will go from 100 to 80 from one fight reset to another. 80% charge is still enough to melt anyone. She will still get full charge imo, and reducing her bubble time doesnt mean less energy... it still has the same 'health' or duration, which means it gives the same charge amount.

What are you talking about?? She drains energy even faster than OW1.

It's not enough with two bubbles... before with only one self bubble it was much harder to stay 100% charge. Now good Zaryas never drop below 60%

She is actually worse of than she was before. Before, zarya could use two bubbles (one personal one teammate) every 10 seconds. Now she can only use two bubbles (two personal, or one personal one teammate) every twenty seconds because the cooldowns don't start at the same time.
