Advice on slotting Dark Servant?
I suggest a nod to recharge and a heavy dose of tohit debuff.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
A full set of Cloud Sense works neatly as the set provides good bonuses and since Fluffy has -ToHit in all its powers except Petrifying Gaze, the proc have a chance to fire more often than other types of procs.

I took this route on my Dark/Elec Defender, but added a little twist too. Delated Ego's proc. But that's because I wanna be a sapping Tankfendtrollmind >.>

I went with three Dark Watcher's (to-hit debuff and two others with to-hit debuff in) and three Touch of the Nictus (heal, heal/rech, acc/heal). I've got Tactics and a *lot* of global accuracy, and checking the numbers, his to-hit rolls seemed good, so I wasn't worried about acc. For me, the point is maximum debuff and healing. Anything else he does is bonus, in my opinion. It's been working well for me, but might not be right for a more aggressive dark. Mine just concentrates on making sure the mobs don't win, and leaves making sure our side does win to the rest of the team (plus her sonic attack debuffs).
I could see Cloud Senses for the ranged defense if you were going that way, though I decided for me I wasn't close enough to the defense cap to lose all the healing.

I just hit level 32 and got Dark Servant (yay!). There are soooooo many options for slotting him... both for regular SO's and for IO sets. Can people share what has worked best for them in terms of how much to slot Dark Servant and what slotting is effective? Thanks!
