The way she man handled scott and the sheriff and spoke about the sacrifices and the fact that between when you how kali left her compared to what she does to Kali at the end makes me think that she gained a lot of power from the sacrifices. True, but it always got the sense that the Nemeton was only able to provide her with just enough energy to not die and than the birds flying into the hospital is what saved her along with the emergency room medical attention. It seems to suggest that the animal thing is at least something she had prior knowledge of and she probably had to practice those illusion abilities a lot if she didn't already know how to do them. And I don't think the sacfrifices made 'her' stronger, but it suggests it was giving a lot of power back to the Nemeton and that strengthened the Telluric currents which she was able to tap into and thus where she probably got most of her power. It seems like any Emissary (Deaton, Morell, even Stiles potentially) could tap into it as well with the right knowledge which they all probably have. And its only conjecture, but think about what it would be like if a group of Emissaries congregated around a Nematon that wasn't a stump and a bunch of roots, but in fact a giant, healthy, living oak tree? They could potentially be a very powerful bunch without the human sacrifices which only seemed necessary for bringing the tree back to life.
