+Companion builds initialize every resource pool required by their learned
+abilities, not only the class's primary pool. Secondary Energy and Focus
+regenerate, and any companion with a Rage pool gains Rage from landed weapon
+attacks; this is what makes druid Cat and Bear rotations executable while Mana
+remains the class's primary resource. A completed companion cast resolves the
+member's currently learned rank before applying its effects, so cast-time spell
+damage and healing cannot fall back to rank one.

+specialization's authored damage priority whenever that build knows a profile
+damage action. Reactive interrupts, taunts, control, and defenses still take
+precedence. Bear and Cat actions are isolated to their matching Feral specs;
+Overpower, Revenge, and Victory Rush require an explicitly modeled trigger;
+and Drain Soul, Hammer of Wrath, and Kill Shot obey their target-health gates.
