If a foe is defeated, the game asks itself, should there be drops and of what kind? It then 'rolls' on a 'table' to see if each of those possible drops happen. With a few exceptions, all drops are separate rolls from each other.|

So, if you defeat some minion and it cons green or better to you there will be a roll for an inspiration, a roll for salvage, a roll for a recipe, etc.... If one of those rewards isn't granted because the inventory slots for that kind of reward is full, then that does *not* affect the other rolls.
Exceptions to the rule are 'bonus drops' such as what happens when defeating giant-sized Devouring Earth (they're actually AVs with the hp of Giant Monsters). When you get an inspiration drop from a DE, you have a chance to get an additional Essence of Earth inspiration (used in Hamidon Raids). If you only have one slot open in inspirations, you'll never get the EoE, because that's in addition to the regular inspiration. But the pairing of two rewards like this is rare in the game.
It is possible to get 5 drops at once, and maybe more.

That's the information I was looking for.

The current six-ways would be, I believe :
Devouring Earth with Ambrosia or Essence of Earth.
Rikti and Vanguard Merits.
Winter Horde with Candy Canes.
Orc&Pie No.53230 There is an orc, and somehow, he got a pie. And you are hungry.
