Transmogrification
Choosing what you see
Josh Greenfield clarified that opting out of transmogrification changes how you see other players; you can still configure your own appearance.[1]
When comparing settings with a friend, check each person's screen separately. A useful screenshot pair shows the equipped item, selected appearance, and viewing preference; that makes an appearance mismatch easier to explain.
Collection and equipment rules
Dungeon bind-on-pickup Uncommon and Rare appearances go to eligible looters; epic raid appearances go only to the recipient who binds the item. Appearance types must match equipped items. Level 60 removes level restrictions on otherwise valid appearances.[2]
Keep an appearance entry separate from its equipment record. For example, a successful collection observation should identify the exact item and the eligible characters; it should not become an unsupported claim about its drop rate. Start with Items for equipment references.
Questions for a settings guide
The most useful next additions are a screenshot of the Forever appearance controls and one reproducible collection example for each loot case above. Record rejection text when an appearance cannot be applied, including the character level and equipped item.
Evidence still needed

Record the Forever build, observation date, and a source or screenshot. Update the article and remove only the tasks your evidence resolves.
