I started tracking all my synths/desynths in Excel to keep my facts straight, but I can't tell the various HQ animations apart yet. I can occasionally tell which level of HQ I get by the result, but most of the HQ animations I've seen were trivial synths that don't have a HQ result (eg, ingots or cloths). I'd still like to track the rate at which they occur.
Could anyone describe the various animations for each crystal?
