Message: <blockquote data-quote="ECMO3" data-source="post: 8808554" data-attributes="member: 7030563">In our playtest we have played 5 levels (1-5) using the new (1) inspiration rules, we played a different campaign for 15 levels using the first ONE (20) inspiration rules.Each character is averaging more than 1 inspiration every two combats and several per day.  The long rest thing is not a big deal, it is almost irrelevant.  Sure we have been left with an unused inspiration here and there but they are so common we are usually using them on the very next failed check.The halfling has only played for 2 of those levels (4-5) but she has not gained a single inspiration yet.  Other players have had I guess 20 or so in that time.The Halfling problem aside we have found both of the new versions (20 and 1) of inspiration to be awful.  The new 1 is worse IME because it is a reroll mechanic, so you use it when you fail.  At least with the first playtest there was some strategy involved in using it because you used it to give advantage before you rolled and knew you failed (or at least that is how we played it).It is important to note that we used legacy 5E races, classes and subclasses in both of these campaigns.To be honest I wish they would just get rid of inspiration all together.</blockquote>
