TL;DR Please copy Character Karma from Timepiece.
Story behind:
I know it minor thing, but having PvP ready character at lvl 62ish with 0 karma sometimes is very dangerous situation. Just now after using Time piece to a Maegu. I luckily tag her instead immediately reroll to her.
Long story short, I just started grinding( Forgot to apply crystal preset). Then 2 people come and start griefing, I forgot I was using 0 Karma character and I alt-c them. Just by "hitting" them I lose all of my karma and went negative.
They easily killed me and ALL OF MY TAGGED GEAR IS GONE. I AM SO LUCKY, BECAUSE HAVE I REROLLED TO HER, WITHOUT A CRYSTAL I WOULD'VE / MIGHT'VE DOWNGRADED MY GEAR.
