Even if you change the appearance, the stats of the gear will remain the same as the originally equipped ones. This system only changes the character's appearance, so enjoy it as a cosmetic feature rather than a character enhancement.

When you change the gear that you have performed appearance changes on, the appearance will also be reset to the newly equipped one. If you want to have a fixed appearance, you will need to change the appearance every time you change the gear, which can be time-consuming.
