Demonology is the Ranged DPS specialization of the Warlock in WoW: Forever. This page summarizes its talent tree as it appears in the beta client (build 1.60.1.69913); the role is the one stated by the Icy Veins guide for the specialization.
The class's three trees, with the talents the Icy Veins guide recommends at level 20 in colour and all the others in grey. The small number on the left of each row is the points you must have spent in the tree to reach it. Point counts are shown when the guide states them; otherwise only the talents are named. This section is fixed: it does not move and does not depend on the calculator.
Icy Veins: increases all damage dealt by your demons by 10%.
Icy Veins: +15% max Health and Mana of your demon, and of your max Mana.
Icy Veins: your pet heals for 15% of your spell damage and Life Tap restores its Mana too.
Icy Veins (optional): summon another demon faster.
Icy Veins: instead of the final point for defensive play.
In order of importance, according to Icy Veins.
What the Icy Veins guide lists for this specialization.
No source publishes a best-in-slot list or enchants for this specialization yet: the Icy Veins Forever guides only cover level 20 for now and do not detail them. The dungeon items below are ranked by rule from the stat priority and are not a best-in-slot list. This section will be filled when a source publishes them, with nothing invented on our side.

These are the deepest talents in the tree: they require 30 points already spent in the specialization. Official game text, at maximum rank.
Your Demonic Sacrifice effect is no longer cancelled by summoning a different Demon pet. Resummoning the sacrificed pet will still cancel the effect.
Talents you take only once, with their tier (official text at maximum rank).
When activated, sacrifices your summoned Demon to enhance the opposing aspect of your power, granting you an effect that lasts 120 min. The effect is canceled if any Demon is summoned. Imp: Increases your Shadow damage by 15%. Voidwalker: Restores 2% of your total Mana every 4 sec. Succubus/Incubus: Increases your Fire damage by 15%. Felhunter: Restores 3% of your total Health every 4 sec.
Your next Imp, Voidwalker, Succubus, Incubus, or Felhunter Summon spell has its casting time reduced by 5.5 sec and its Mana cost reduced by 50%.
When active, 30% of all damage taken by the caster is taken by your Imp, Voidwalker, Succubus, Incubus, or Felhunter Demon instead. In addition, both the Demon and the master will inflict 3% more damage. Lasts as long as the Demon is active.
Each line is a tier of the tree; in brackets, the talent's maximum rank.

|---|---|
| 1 | Improved Health Funnel (2) · Improved Imp (3) · Demonic Embrace (5) · Unholy Power (5) |
