So you're basically saying that you don't think any of those feats were possible because Scott is a True Alpha? So you think normal Alphas could go through mountain ash as well? I thought that was significant because it signified Scott was a True Alpha. well Derek did heal Cora once, but it caused him his alpha spark. Scott's spark comes from within, so his certain talents may be more advanced than of a regular alpha, but at the end of the day he too is just another alpha. At least that's what I get from Jeff's answer and what I've seen on the show. That seems like another way of saying that it is a power unique to a True Alpha. :P I think that a True Alpha MUST have extra powers, or else Deucalion wouldn't be threatened by the thought of it, and people would stop blabbing about it. I mean, we have seen farrrrr more experienced and talented Alphas than Scott, but only he broke through the mountain ash barrier by pure will. I remember Paul.rea saying that anything mentioned about Scott's powers should be thought of as in reference to a True Alpha, not just a normal one. We already know that only a beta of Scott's own making should be able to take Scott's powers, but we've seen Peter's powers get stolen by Derek -- clearly not a beta of his own making -- so we can be sure that this is just for a True Alpha.

I know Jeff is the creator and it word holds the most value, but I really think he should re-evaluate what he just said, cause multiple instances of the show suggest that a True Alpha is more than just an original Alpha with great character.
