Depends if you plan on taking Hasten.
Before IOs I had 3 -Recharge SOs, 1 +Acc SO, 1 +Dam and 1 +Hold SOs. But I don't have Hasten.
With Hasten I'd do the same as me but with 1 less -Recharge SO and add an extra +Hold SO. But if you want good damage add an extra +Dam SO not an +Hold SO....
...Hope thats clear enough. 
Frankenslotting? Not a clue what that means...

[/ QUOTE ]Mixing set IOs from different sets with enhancement values you need (and sometimes HOs) to maximize enhancement per amount of slots used for a power, without aiming for set bonuses. For example, slotting Siphon Life from Dark Melee with 2 Nucleous HOs, 2 Golgi HOs, a Hecatomb Dam/Rech and Doctored Wounds Heal/Rech maximizes damage and healing, nearly maximizes accuracy and endurance reduction, and gives 60% recharge.
Well I wasn't planning on taking hasten, I know its an awesome power to have, but just fed up with every character I make having flaming hands.
Do we know how much the 3rd recharge would reduce the cooldown by?
I had it 4 slotted in the 20s (due to lack of slots) with 1 acc and 3 recharge, his damage isn't great (that said I tend to just make them out of zombies since zombies die so often), I mostly used him as a 4th (and 5th) zombie BG.
Once I hit the 30s I stuck some more slots in there and boosted the damage.
That said I found once I hit 32 and the Lich became a fully fledged controller in my pocket I had to work at getting the zombies killed. But I do love it when I've got 2 Spirits out (with Hasten). I have a move aggressive bind for sending one luckless Zombie in to take the alpha (and die) just so I can rez him for Spirit goodness.
The Intensive Recharge Pet sets (or whatever they are called) are currently bugged so avoid them for the moment. Frankenslotting with 2 Acc/Dam and a Dam from Pet sets and 3 recharge would be the way I'd do it currently. With a damage and a recharge getting replaced with the Pet +Defense and +Resist uniques if I can get them (the Spirit doesn't need to be out or anything for these to work on all pets so he works nicely as a mule for them)
2 Recharge SOs will drop the recharge to 361 seconds (66% enhancement), 3 to 306 seconds (95% enhancement, 6 seconds from perma).

It actually works like that? That's pretty sweet...looks like I might have to start saving some Inf for those then.

And just to throw an onion in the ointment, if you slotted with ToHit Debuff/Recharge IOs not only will they boost the Recharge of the power but they'll also boost how quickly the Spirit fires off its powers with a ToHit debuff (Ghastly Blast and the Life Drain heal).

Just an FYI, with i14 this will no longer be the case, the Spirits attacks shouldn't be enhancable with Recharge.
Question says it really, just taken Soul Extraction and was wondering on the best way to slot it...SOs to start, then frankenslotting at a later date (PvE FYI)
