I think... you'll be fine with that build.
Heh, I'll take that as a compliment, but I am still lost as to how to slot my pets.
Well yes. But I think you seem to be missing my point. I am sure there is some sort of established idea of the optimal spots for certain IO's, procs and the like, to get the most out of my Demons. That is the advice I seek.
Ah, you are aiming for Min/Maxing.
Then Im helping the wrong person. Good-bye!
Ok, I'm at work, so I can't look at your build, but can make some general recommendations. Both Demons and Nature buff Resistance, rather than Defence, so:
1) Slot the Call To Arms and Expedient Reinforcement procs in Hell On Earth. It's the only place you have for them, really. Grab 3 more of either set for the recharge bonus(I like CTA's other bonuses more, but that's just me), and probably a generic Recharge IO.
2) Demonlings get the Sovereign Right proc, so you have it at the lowest exemplar levels. 4 slots of Unquestioning Loyalty gives your pets good stats for cheap, then round out with a generic Damage IO.
3) Demons: same as Demonlings, but with the Edict of the Master proc and Resistance IO instead of Damage. As a Nature Affinity toon, you're less dependent on the Ember Demon's heals than other Masterminds.
4) Demon Prince. Pick a set you like, but remember he's an End hog. Give him a generic Endurance Reduction IO. He also has a couple AOE Slows, so the Impeded Swiftness proc should do well, or just run with a generic Damage IO, and let the big guy go to town.
5) And of course, these days Enchant Demon and Abyssal Empowerment only really need a single slot of end reduction, freeing up slots for elsewhere.
I was thinking about doing Demons/Nature soon myself, glad its working for someone so far

Character List
I really think I will enjoy leveling my Demon/Nature, but for the final build I am not sure how to slot the pets. I have virtually no experience with Masterminds that I have enjoyed, but I am optimistic these 2 "newer" sets will play better than the sets I tried in years past.
Here is my build. I accomplished most of my goals, but I would like to get closer to perma-hasten to perma my NA powers. I would prefer to keep sm/lethal soft-cap as I plan to be up-close and personal most of the time. Most of what I need is how to slow my pets, however.
