I've picked up WoW again after many months of no playing. I was wondering if there is an updated Necrosis and/or Shardtracker mod. The link in the FAQs is out of date and I haven't been able to find it.
I'm guessing that they probably haven't been updated for quite awhile. If so, are there any similar mods out there? Or do you have any mods you would suggest?
So far I have CT Mod, Titan Panel, and Atlas.

You can get an up-to-date Necrosis off wow.curse.com
If you're looking into alternatives, I can also recommend you have a look at ShardAce, found at wowinterface.com I expect.

there is a working necrosis out there found at http://media6.curse-gaming.com/dl/4dcaa42ae351a50898d087ed1868134f/471f11f4/files/48/2213/47/27161/necrosis-ldc-2-0-beta-2-6-3.zip
Some people do not like it since it lacks a monitor which shows how long the succubus seduce lasts, i never use the seduce so i am fine with just necrosis.
A really nice addon would be Natur EnemyCastbars found at http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/2786/
This i copied from the description:
Description:
Shows Debuffs (e.g. Sheep timers), Casts, Gains, Stuns, DoTs, BossTimers, Cooldowns, Diminishing Returns by lovely colored CastBars - Peace :D Supports 'target' and 'focus'. Recognizes unknown spell casts, stops and delays!
=> Use "/necb" or the minimap icon to call the menue.

Check out the Mazzle_UI at wowinterface.com. Best UI Compilation ever. Has working versions of the warlock mods and all other good class mods included.
No offense meant, but recommending a full custom UI package to someone just asking for necrosis is a bit like pointing someone asking for a glass of water to the nearest ocean.
Not really. If said person drank their glass of water from said ocean, they are likely to throw up rom the salt content. ;o)
My point exactly.
I recommend that UI to anyone who asks anything about mods as it has everything one could possibly need. If you tried it, you'd see why. The only thing it's missing is Auctioneer. It has literally everything else you could need and sets it all up for you, is visually appealing, increases system performance, and has an easy to use menu for adjusting the settings and turning on and off all of the add-ons included in it. It is probably the best thing that ever happened to WoW.

Which is all fine and dandy, except when you actually only need one specific point solution.

No, most definitely not. I've spent two years carefully selecting, configuring, tweaking, rejecting and replacing every single add-on I use to do exactly what I want them to do how I want it done. I'm most certainly not going to swap that out for a generic package, no matter how well done it is (and from the features, the screenshot and the feedback, Mazzle is as good as pre-packaged gets). I may read to much into your post but you do sound like a fanboy defending the object of his admiration.
There is no point doing that. I am not dissing Mazzle. I am merely pointing out that offering a complete collection of knives, 23 swords, 17 axes and 23 halberds to someone needing a scalpel is overkill.

increases system performance,
LOL. That's where fanboism leads you. You could just as well claim it's also making tea and taking out the thrash.
If you want to use this as an advertisement for Mazzle, make sure you qualify it properly. It may increase system performance when compared to a similarly-scoped assortment of various add-ons by leveraging shared libraries and the Ace2 framework. It certainly does decrease performance for someone previously running with the default Blizzard UI.
Again, don't take me wrongly. I'm not dissing Mazzle_UI, it's a great collection for people either starting out or for people who no longer want to spend time to maintain a large collection of add-ons. It may not be the appropriate response to someone looking merely for one single mod, Necrosis.

Funny how a friend of mine, who was previously using the default UI installed this and his FPS actually went up. I know, I was over at his house and saw the difference with my own eyes. The reason for this is that it changes how much of the screen is renedered. If you hide your UI while using this package, you will notice a large black bar across the bottom. Nothing is there, that means less work for you video card, which in turn means an increase in FPS and overall system performance. It also has efficiency modes, that change your video setting for you depending on how much is going on around you/where you are(Org for Example), therefore also increasing system performance.
I too used to be like you and resisted switching to Mazzle, had a ton of Add-On that I manually configured myself, and then every patch had to deal with fixing it all and that whole headache. After switching to Mazzle I have not looked back, it even makes configuring the addons a breeze with menus instead of text commands. Remembering/looking up all those text commands can be a pain.
Am I somewhat of a fanboy for this package, yes I would say I am, but then again, so is just about everyone that uses it.
Just so you know, in the Install instructions, it even tells you how to back-up and get back whatever custom add-ons you are currently using. I would assume since you probably already know how to do this since you say you use a bunch of add-ons, but it's there. So telling someone to try it is harmless, they can get back thier old setup if they do not like it.
I really hate it when someone tells me I don't know what I'm talking about without any proof to back it up. Generally, I don't open my mouth unless I have first hand experience and can prove what I say is true. There are times when I am mis-informed or overlook things, and ask around, people on this forum know me, I'll concede. In this case however, I will not.

So higher FPS at the cost of screen estate. Apples and Oranges.

Uh, you're making wild claims without backing them up (or explaining that you're comparing apples to oranges in this case), the burden of proof is on your side. Unless the context changes (which appears to be the case), you'd have to demonstrate how adding a lot of code to the default UI actually improves performance. Which isn't necessary since it's apple and oranges, BTW.

To spell it out more clearly, you're wasting your e-breath on me. I actually love toying with add-ons, it's part of the fun around the game for me.
To close this whole matter, I will stick to my point that suggesting Mazzle to someone who just needs one single add-on is like shooting an elephant in a corridor with a battle tank, I won't convince you that that's totally overkill and you won't convince me of the contrary (or to switch to Mazzle myself). So we'll have to agree to disagree at this stage, which will probably hugely benefit this thread, as our little back and forth doubtlessly looks more stupid at each iteration.

It's not really at the cost of screen estate, because that part is covered by bars and chat windows anyway, but that's beside the point. It probably is best to agree to disagree.
The main point I am trying to make is anytime anyone asks any mod related question, if the answer for the single mod they are looking for has already been answered, I will suggest looking at mazzle as if they do get it, it usually prevents further "what add-on does this" questions, and when people do try it they are generally very satisfied.
It's just another option, maybe people didn't know there was a pack like this out there, and I'm just trying to let people know, where else but in a thread about mods? If they are uninterested, they will look over it, maybe I'm wasting my time, maybe it's overkill, but it's my time and sometimes the overkill is appreciated.

Erm....an argument about AddOns....really???
Use what suits ya. The original overkill may, after all, prove a God-send for our dear original poster.
Personally, I'd go with Cosmos Patcher, but hey, that's just me.
(With Auctioneer, Enchantrix, FishingBuddy, Necrosis thrown in......)

DoTimer
DoTimer
That no longer works according to Sethy?
Or the Seduction timer doesn't. Or something.

My point exactly.
I'm using DoTimer and it works fine, although I haven't used Seduce in the last days.
I've just been farming a ton lately, haven't run in instance where I needed to seduce in well over a month. But I'm far from using the latest version of DoTimer and seduce worked fine AFAIK back then. The rest of it works fine, at least my version (I haven't updated it in a few months).
I know all my other timers are perfect like spell lock, dots, devour magic, I use the felhunter a ton. I even use it on my mage and rogue for the cooldown timers.
