@Bigwolfonbase: 100% spot-on! Derek merely achieved "enlightment". Talia and Laura both possesed the same evolved state so other tban the idea of it being rare and special for a werewolf to achieve, I don't understand why ppl subscribe more to it than that. Sure, it seems to have given him a power boost but that's all it is; a special and rare evolutionary form due to achieving some sort of spiritual balance with his nature. oh never thought of it like that... but so far we know few things about this "evolutionary form of werewolf":

1. Super rare, perhaps even as rare as True Alpha.

2. Achieving this state makes you "kind of a leader in larger werewolf community".

3. Allows werewolf to take full wolf form, possibly due to an extra spark (sort of like alpha spark but instead of being an extra for evolved wolf, it is normal for it and thus doesn't change eye color)

4. Boosts at least strength to an "normal Alpha werewolf" (or perhaps more) level, as witnessed by Derek killing berserker with his bare hands, impressive feat as Scott as an alpha was weaker than Peter and he was afraid of Berserkers, though i think now scott could do it since he mastered his alpha strength...

5 (possibly). When Derek was still teenager because of Kate, Deaton tested his healing and he said it was "unusually fast", and we saw the cut heal itself and close before the scalpel as he went and cut his skin, demonstrating level of healing never seen before. As his eyes were still blue (his normal eyes), it could be that he had some form of evolved power then, and reached full potential after his loss of power and death. (this is speculation but it seems likely) 1. While it is rare its no where near as rare as a true alpha. So far we have 1 true alpha and 3 (4 if you want to count malia) wolves that have reached that state.

2. Talia was an Alpha also. So we dont if she still would have had the same kind of pull if she had just been an evolved beta.

3. This really depends on malia doesnt it. Cause shes either evolved which allows her to take that state or the 2 have not a lot to do with each other.

4. The only thing were going off of for streangth so far is that one scene with the berzerker. I for 1 dont trust this scene. It reminds me too much of Scott breaking the mountain ash barrier. Which turned out to be a huge let down as he get hes ass kicked the entire next season. So as far as we know that scene could have nothing to do with dereks final streangth level and he could be no stronger than any other beta with his build.

5. I personally believe his healing came from the magic that was performed from turning him younger. Just a random side effect of what would have been his cells in a hyper form of regeneration caused by turning back the clock on him.
