Warning message on copied items
In regards to partial tagging, where an incomplete set of items is copied from the Main to a Tag character, if you later decide that you would like a full set or to tag with a different character, you will need to untag and have all copied gear deleted. We strongly advise caution when selecting which character you desire to tag and copy your gear onto, as once untagged you will need to pay for additional Marni's Unstable Fuels.
