Correct me if I'm wrong, but I heard the plan actually was to change the Doomguard and Infernal to what you are talking about. They would be changed from "minion" to "guardian" so summoning them does not cause the regular demon to go away, making them more DPS cooldowns like Summon Gargoyle or Dancing Rune Weapon are over in Death Knight country.

I know I posed this question as BlizzCon '08, but forgot to follow-up with it at '09, especially in light of all the other Lock changes being discussed. Do you remember where it was brought up?

The idea of popping Inferno as a DPS cooldown (maybe similar to Moonkin Treants?) is really appealing to me, as it would then match with the visual concept of a warlock bringing down burning rocks to wail on his enemies. Out of all the conceptual "promises" of the Classic WoW and Burning Crusade cinematics, that's one that I always felt was a little lost. (Okay, the actual destruction caused by the Blood Elf Priest's Holy Nova at the end of the BC cinematic was awesome too.)

I can't correct you but would be interested to see a blue post or the like stating this. Not seen anything as yet.

You're right - we should have something like that!
