The thing is, although some scenes in the show might push us to draw some conclusions on werewolf powers skills etc... we shouldn't read to much into it as long as those "rules" or characteristics aren't actually said in the show (for example when Derek explains something to Scott). The show, unfortunately has a bad habit of being inconsistant. They often play with the (what I like to call) the emotional boost. A character gets an extra power boost because he's angry or his loved ones are in danger...

There aren't fixed rules on power and hierarchy as in other supernatural tv shows and movies. For example in underworld (where werewolves are immortal), the older you are as a werewolf the more powerful you get: clear rules. You don't have that in TW, at least that's how I see it
