Remember, the Karma Pool does not refresh every node, or even every
Initiative phase, rather when the Game Master feels it should...
What is generally suggested is that it occur between a change of
"scenes" which permits the characters to "catch their breath". If
your
technomancer thinks his Karma Pool refreshed every time he changes a
node, he is sorely mistaken.
It is unlikely the Pool shall refresh during a Matrix run, except should
he be afforded the opportunity to "take 5" whilst within the system (by
downloading a large file, et cetera). Otherwise, say it simply does not
happen.
Once you enact this simple, nevertheless important, modification it is
unlikely he shall be roaring through clusters with impunity.
