Powergy would have the most feel of the 3, and possibly the least durability. It's an excellent touch string if you find the right tension. Very easy on the arm as well. It's in my list of top 5 strings. I don't play with it much though because it's a bit pricey if you break it quickly. Conquest is a syn gut pretty much like most of the others out there. Decent string, but nothing special.
 
Nice name, "Conquest," and nice packages, but this is merely another generic solid core with a multi wrap, no better and no worse than a dozen others. Look, in the 21st century there are no "bad" synthetics. I find this twine moves around too much to suit my taste and is not special in any way. Unlike new soft polys, which I like a lot at lower tension, synths all move a lot if you hit topspin. Likewise, at over 60 lbs they lose resiliency, unlike pricey gut. l also find Powergy, a solid core with two wraps, to be a bit stiff/crisp and not special; and it too moves around. Wontonly overpriced is Powergy as well. These may be good strung tigher as crosses with a poly mains!

But if you historically have no problem with most generic synthetics, you will have no problem with these. I've used both and do not any longer.

I believe Powergy was previously called FiberFeel. I thought it pocketed the ball well for a solid core string and is sublime in my VT98 Pro. Average durability. Agree it is overpriced though.

I think that powergy are the best strings of babolat, they've comfort and power.About conquest I tink that they're not good, for me is best that you use the xcel premium and not the conquest.
