It does indeed look like conflag is no longer tied to immolate, due to the fact that you get conflag at 10, then immo at 12. Really, destro looks like it can actually be destructive again!!

No sign of 'Demonic Slash' they talked about on the Q&A, and with Shadowflame having a knockback in Meta I guess the 'melee Meta' is gone outside of AoE, which is good. On the other hand far, far too many of the Demo abilities are 'Passive', and literally have no interaction - and where the hell is Molten Core? D:
Also, Malefic Grasp looks more like a replacement for Haunt than it does Shadow Bolt with it's effect lasting 9s. Interesting that Nightfall procs for MG rather than SB if that's the case.

This has got to be the best thing I have woken up to in a LONG time! I can't stop drooling right now. Yes, I know some of it will probably change. But damn I'm excited for MoP right now!
I believe they said at Blizzcon, or some panel or something afterwards, that the duration depends on how many charges you have of Demonic Fury.
Your Shadow Bolt changes into Demonic Slash when in Meta, so it wouldn't show up as a seperate spell. It just appears when you go Demon Form.

You can't since it changes into Demonic Slash when you go Meta.
Hopefully the shadowflame knockback is something closer to thunderstorm than whiplash.
Looking through my spell lists now, it's looking like my rotation is going to be BoD, Corruption, Shadow Bolt, HoG every 15s (although questionable damage) then Soul Fire during the execute. Fuck that bullshit for dumbing down a spec.
all right, need more information then... without propper tooltips this is all speculation
will wild imps generate demonic fury even while meta is up? i don´t get that, then why the tanking part on meta, taking less dmg would be good enough if we aoe-aggro everything as usual
More buttons=/=complex spec.
We don't know what the optimal process for meta uptime will be. I see this as 'cleaning' up the spec, more than dumbing it down. All in all, demo isn't hard to play atm, it just has a lot of buttons. I doubt that it will be dumber, it might even be more complex.
So basically, you're trading a couple of your keybinds, for a cleaner rotation, and a solid compliance to the spec theme.
If I can't be the sex symbol, then I can definitely be the BITCH
They (blizzard) said that demo warlocks would be getting a new mechanic via a demonic fury bar, or something like that. The more you cast spells, the more it fills up, when it's full you go into Metamorphosis. I believe the bar just slowly depletes and when it's empty you leave metamorphosis again.
