Here's what has been released for 4.2 so far.....
Tier 12
2-Piece - Your periodic damage has a chance to summon a Fiery Imp to assist you in battle for 15 sec.
4-Piece - Your Shadow Bolt and Incinerate spells have a 5% chance to increase all Shadow and Fire damage you deal by 20% for 8 sec.

Fiery imp sounds cool, boomkins get a fiery treant as well.
4set is pretty boring really, but at least better than the T11 one :D And you might even pop a cd when it's up for some more BOOM. However, since the pet doesn't get the buff, I have a feeling demo will be grabbing the short end of the stick once more ...

Maybe not exciting or game-changing but this is a set bonus worth really going for and even if Demo gets slightly less benefit than other specs it will still be a very strong 4set for us which will be great after the terrible T11 set bonuses we got stuck with.

This 4 set bonus also gives asa some more work to calculate how much SB aff will gain compared to drain aff once all details are known. (please :)

I wonder if the 2 set proc scales with Demonology mastery...

My educated guess is that it will.
Current guardian pets (Doomguard, Infernal, Ebon Imps) do benefit from Mastery and I'm sure that the Fiery Imps will work on the same guardian mechanics.

Hopefully it'll look better than Tier 11 too, that would be pretty awesome.

Soul Harvest has a new spell effect.
This actually makes me happy. A small and purely aesthetic change but we were just borrowing evocation before so any step away from the Mages is a good one.

I concur. Although I do admit that that change got clouded (or w/e) by the druid changes and T12 pics :p

Ah! thanks for that link.
I heartily approve of the animation! Like using Drain Soul on the air around you, perfect.

what else is there to say? I expected a drain soul-esque effect. The only part I don't really get is the flow of the drain going outwards instead of inwards. But that's nitpicking ^_^

Very nice effect change, surely way better than the evocation one. I wonder if they would change it to those souls being absorbed rather than just flying around.

Another change that I missed when looking over MMO's front page. Luckily they covered it on Legendary.
Pets
The Aggressive pet stance has been removed and replaced with the Assist stance. This stance will cause the player's pet to attack the player's target. The pet will not change targets unless the master attacks a new target for a few seconds.
Wootza!

Very nice changes so far, and I'm hoping (praying to all known gods and deities) that the t12 2pc will bring demo back into the running again, mayhaps even a nice little fix for our felguards to be #1 demo pet again.
Don't expect the 2pc to be nearly that powerful. I think you can expect it to be a couple of tens of DPS better for Demo than other specs but that will likely be all.
As for the Felguard, I assume you're hoping for something separate to the tier set to fix that? Well, yes, one can certainly hope.

There isn't usually an internal cooldown on these tier procs. The 5% proc chance will see that it doesn't get too powerful even for someone with a decent amount of luck.

I wonder what the AfficDrain people are thinking of the 4pcT12 bonus, as their benefit is exactly 0 dps from it.
The other specs however, it'll be a nice lil' boost, depending on the CD. Here's to designers not liking any variation on their design.
With nightfall and GoCorr i cast enough SB's to maintain the S&F to some fair extend with my drain spec. SB spec will benefit more, yes, but 0 is an understatement.
