Okay- This is ultimately the affliciton builds I would be comfortable with, not neccesarily the best out there... What I'm looking for is what demon I should go with (And likewise what build with that demon)
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#IfxMbzRAoVA0IktZE0MV:MTIzM0 Succubus <Destro> (There is one talent point in Grim Reach I have for free to move as I please)
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#IfxMbzMAoVA0uktbG0hkA:MTIzM0 Succubus <Demo> (The points from Death's Embrace have moved to Unholy Power)
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#IfxMbzMAoiA0IktbG0hku:MTIzM0 Fel-Hunter <Demo> (Is the fel-hunter really that good of a non-PVP pet? And is it annoying for the Mage/Priest to have to handle having their buffs wiped by the Hunter's Fel-Intelligence?)
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#IfxMbzMAoiAoIktZE00V:MTIzM0 Fel-Hunter <Destro> (The free point this time has taken it's place in dark-pact as a holder until I see something better.)
I was cruising around, and I saw that the first build seems to be pretty close to the suggested build, but I just don't know about it, I'm a hard-core Demonology player, and all that, so the second succubi build looks better to me (But obviously may not be). What I'm not understanding is how the Fel-Hunter does in a PVE situation.
Any helps, suggestions (as to which spec is more viable and a possible place to shove that 1 free point <a$$ is not acceptable. lol>) I'd be very appreciative.

your best build is actually the 56/0/15 one but don't take that as a suggestion you use it.
use the
suggested build and use the pet that the group needs. there's actually a whole minion guide that kangi has been good enough to write out so you should look there but the choice essentially boils down to what i said in the FAQ:
-Affliction uses doomguard (when available) or whichever pet brings the buffs that the group needs (Imp or Felhunter). If no buffs are needed then the Succubus is used.
or, to put that into a decision tree format:
DG if off CD ► FH if no mage or priest ► imp if no warrior ► succubus
a few misconceptions you have:
-glyph of corruption is not good for PvE.
-destro is manditory as the secondary tree for affliction.
-improved felhunter is not good enough, even if you use the FH a lot.
-dark pact is not good.
-there's no point in taking any points in either range talent without the other.
