Anytime you get an inspiration you already have, it should upgrade the inspiration you already have

If your inspiration inventory is full, instead of wasting inspirations it should upgrade one that already exists. If one doesn't exist, then it's wasted boohoo oh well. But if it does exist, it should increase in a tier.

If your inspiration tray is full, obvi

As an option, I don't particularly care. Not as a forced change, though.

 

Not without the ability to downgrade inspirations. It would be counterproductive if it upgraded something when I was actually saving it in case I needed to merge it into something else, or in case a bunch of inspirations dropped all at once before I could.

I do. It negates the primary benefit of the Inner Inspiration power and will lower the cost of high tier inspirations on the market.

Nah, inspiration management is just something to do.   I do wish you could upgrade an inspiration by combining, though not at 3:1, probably 6:1 and limited to Large at most.

 

You might want to look into the combine command: "inspcombine insight enrage" for an example

No thanks! I'll just keep smashing the F keys when I finally notice my tray is full!

No thanks to the suggestion.

 

Burning (non-rez) inspirations improves performance; I typically only 'need' a couple of types of Inspirations for emergencies, so I set up macros to combine other inspirations into those (depending on the character).

 

The improvement I'd like is the ability to combine dual inspirations into singles (personally: I don't care to combine into duals), or team insps into other team insps.

Given the existing 'rate of exchange' for inspirations, where you can take three identical inspirations and convert them to a different inspiration of the same tier, I think that allowing two of the same inspiration to merge and bump up a tier is too good. I would like to see an option in the 'combine inspirations' menu for you to be able to, instead of converting to a different inspiration of the same tier, to convert them to the same inspiration type of the next tier up.

Yes! I think this is a great idea. I'll make a separate post where we can discuss it.
