approximately
HQ1, 2, 3 use same effect. HQ is graphically different from NQ. It gives you little diagonal flashes at the end.
2b - no.
About HQ, I don't think there's any hard proven facts. Just theories. Anyway, the 2 theories that really stand out for me are
1. New moon being related to dark element, and Full moon light element. So, you're more likely to HQ Light base crystals during new moon (thunder, wind, fire) and the rest during full moon.
2. Moon phase and the day its contain. It's a little more complex and I can't find the link... but here's briefly what it says... each moon phase covering 6 vanadiel days. There are always 1 day left out in each state. That day the moon phase doesn't cover, is the weakest element of the phase and is the highest HQ chance.  There are painters who transform the sun into a yellow spot,
but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence
transform a yellow spot into the sun.
