Aoe/Hitscan archetype dispatch in AbilityFireSystem (both-worlds cooldown;
server-only ecb.Instantiate — the client-never-instantiates invariant; ZoneEffect
vs DecoyTag chosen by prefab membership). Harpooner REEL as a homing state
(ReelState + ReelSystem re-aim the hit Husk's KnockbackState toward the caster's
live position each tick; EnemyAISystem stays sole Position writer), stamped by
ProjectileDamageSystem on a Reel-flag hit. ZonePulseSystem (enemy-only periodic
AoE, caster attribution, no friendly fire, Vortex pull, born-0 lazy-stamp).
Decoy aggro in EnemyAISystem + DecoySystem despawn. AbilityDefBlob gains
EffectFlags (Reel) + DurationTicks. +3 ZonePulseSystem EditMode tests (497 green).

Per Phase1_Combat_Gym_Build_Spec §6 (the Blink Spark = a second, socketed dash):
- AbilityArchetype += Movement (falls through AbilityFireSystem; a sibling system drives it).
- AbilityId += the 5 Phase-1 Sparks (DecoyWisp/HookPull/Vortex/Blink/LightZone).
- BlinkState: predicted, non-replicated blink window (DashState sibling).
- BlinkSystem: velocity blink (never a LocalTransform write), triggered by the Movement-
archetype socket, dash-wins precedence ([UpdateAfter(DashSystem)]), sole writer of its
socket's SocketCooldown row; reads socket loadout/cooldown by entity via lookups (query at 6
args, under the 7-cap). Baked BlinkState on the player.
L1 clean; L2 494/494. Dead until a Blink Spark def is socketed (ability-database SO = next).

byte Archetype on AbilityDefBlob (AbilityArchetype enum: Projectile/Hitscan/Cone/Aoe), authored on AbilityDefinition + baked in AbilityDatabaseAuthoring, read at dispatch in AbilityFireSystem -- NOT folded through EffectiveAbilityStats/StatRecomputeSystem (static identity, not a tunable stat; MC-4 review BURST-1). All current abilities are Projectile (0) -> zero behaviour change; the dispatch read-point is the de-risk spike for MC-6 hitscan/cone/aoe.
