How are you slotting Time Crawl and Temporal Selection?
I'm slotting both with 3 slots. Frankenslotting Crawl with Acc/Slows if I can (currently 1 Acc/Slow, 1 Acc, 1 Slow), and Selection with Heal/Recharge IO's for maximawesome regen and recharge.
My guides:Dark Melee/Dark Armor/Soul Mastery, Illusion Control/Kinetics/Primal Forces Mastery, Electric Armor
"Dark Armor is a complete waste as a tanking set."
Hmm, if we want to 3-slot like you mentioned, we might want to consider Hami-Os. Pity that I don't think there's Acc/Rech or Heal/Rech hamis. Still, I like the ideas and that there's only 3-slots each.

time crawl i would slot prolly with an IO slow set for a rech bonus, for the other i might put as much rech and +regen as possible slotted into the power lol (heal/end hami IOs would help the end casting cost out some)
Time Crawl with Slow Set IOs, the one for S/L Def. Can't remember the name.
Temporal Selection...not sure yet.
Does the ACC/Mez HO increase the slow effect?
With the recharge bonuses I do have, I have it two slotted with lvl 50 ACC/END IOs.
I'm wondering if I should take away one of those, keep it one slotted with an ACC/END IO, relying on that ACC, Tactics and the +34% ACC I have in set bonuses, as I could make use of that slot elsewhere.

1 ACC IO for Time Crawl here on my Beam/Time. I have a ridiculous amount of global recharge and it's up whenever I want to use it (and I don't use it on every mob, things just die fast. /shrug) with about a 5 second recharge.
Two Heal/Recharge IOs (I think Doctored Wounds and Numina's, but I may have the level 40 common one in there instead of Numina's) in Temporal Selection. I can reliably keep it up on 2-3 people with a 35s recharge.
Going to redo my build after the new Mids comes out, I will likely move stuff around a lot once I get the official stuff rollin'... working with my "basics only" stuff where I overwrote Electrical Blast for Beam Gun & Storm Summoning for Time Manipulation.
Chrono Shift is not perma, but it's only seconds away from it. No biggie there.
Now that my beam/time corruptor is in his mid 20s, I'm still confounded by these two Time Manipulation powers.
For now, I re-specialized to only have the base slot for both Time Crawl and Temporal Selection. I'm slot-starved right now, but I'd like to expand these later - while remaining conservative with the slots.
I'm not certain if I should slot these for improved recharge (as Time Manipulations offers that, plus global IOs might later fill in this gap). I might slot up TC's debuffs (as they're useful), while slotting TS's heal minimally (I have other ways to heal allies). I'd love to slot TS's buffs, but from what I can tell I can't. I might slot these so that I'd best take advantage of set global IOs.
Right now, I can't decide. So I thought I'd crowd-source the boards for opinions:
So, how are you slotting Time Crawl and Temporal Selection?
