Hero Companion 0.12.13 — the slotting promises, completed

The remaining commitments from the community slotting review, delivered in one model
update (v27):

  • −Resistance procs for every role that can carry them. Achilles' Heel,
    Annihilation, and Fury of the Gladiator multiply the whole spawn's incoming damage —
    and a damage role owns the biggest share of that damage. The optimizer now hunts a
    home for each −res proc in every build (debuff toggles first, then the biggest
    eligible power, premium and pet homes protected), not just on debuffers.

  • Force Feedback: Chance for +Recharge finally counts. Seated in your spammiest
    knockback attack and honestly valued: the average recharge it sustains flows into
    everything recharge touches — attack chains, Hasten uptime, debuff cycling, pet
    resummons — and the build totals show exactly how much of your recharge it carries.

  • Hamidon Origin enhancements modeled. All 62 special enhancements now price
    correctly when slotted, and the optimizer uses the master pattern: a proc-hybrid
    attack's filler core trades up to two Nucleolus Exposures (about 66% accuracy and
    66% damage in two recharge-free slots). Premium set cores stay intact.

  • Proc math verified against the game itself. Every proc rate now matches the
    game client exactly (Annihilation corrected), and the area-factor formula is the
    original developers' Issue-24 math — additionally cross-checked against 27,000+
    real proc events mined from live gameplay logs, which confirmed every rate.

  • Champion builds re-converged under the final model — all five gold-standard
    builds ship in this update:

    Champion Score (v27, converged)
    Plant/Poison Controller 2206.8
    Poison/Sonic Defender 2626.8
    Radiation/Sonic Defender 2290.2
    Radiation/Radiation Defender 1947.9
    Demon/Radiation Mastermind 2101.2

Verified on the frozen build before publish: release smoke, gold-champion smoke (all
five served at 100% pick overlap), pet reality check, zero proc-rate drift against the
client, and the full audit battery across all 15 archetypes.
