Day of Battle Stole my HoP Income and Earnings - Necromancer orb horror stories - and tales of other Fortunes

So this one ends nicely - I'll warn you from the start "> For almost eternity some of us have been dreaming to complete our Vigilant Guard collections - striving day and night to obtain the illusive collection item by all types of means and superstitions - slaving over our battles and cringing before turning in a kill and anticipating one in the making, and crossing ourselves hoping that it worked - waiting patiently for the fight to end and see if the gods had willed our favors - and to gather enough gold to buy our drug of life the necromancer orb.... ">
It turns out that the last DOS I had with me 2/5 of the items beforehand having paid something like 15 orbs to get them - and one coming on the midweek DOT - (rumor has it that the easiest way to get an item is in DOT - I also think its easier when u summon in combat to improve the odds - which is what i noted when I got the drop) - my next too surprising enough came from it on DOS! Before that I had already had a spurt of orb fever back in the AOH. "> "> But alas tragedy struck in the Boss Fight when Deathknight cursed me using a red BC orb - rendering me dysfunctional for the next 20 hours with a red curse! ">
Of course I was under the impression that he was going to heal me after the fight - but he couldn't heal red curses! "> Instead an offer to pay me gold to remove it from the buff menu had come forth but I declined stating that I could do it myself later on being already on PVP for some few hours - then I logged off. "> "> ">

Then orb fever took hold of me and I started finding the smallest odds intriguing and started getting in line for the kill
So now that this tale has had a fairytale end - I must make haste and use up my remaining 2k in the Light of the Vigilant Guard range 7k+ to be blessed by the Power! And 43+ Skeletars!!
So final lesson: Try your best don't give up - but also here's a few tips:
If you keep getting it you're on a streak of losing (death essences)
Quit. Try again a few hours later. I only got mine after a few more logins and that right at the very two final fights which I logged off about 1 hour before that and back in with 20 minutes left of DOS!
Fight valiantly and with your mind! More damage and skill has a gr8er chance.
Summon in combat in DOT!!!
