How to turn if, else if logic into a ternary operator?

Question

I was just wondering if this was possible because i started using ternary operators to reduce lines of code and i am loving it.

if (x==y)
{
    z += x;
} els

You can use

z += x == y ? x : x == z ? y : 1;

But honestly, that's not really more readable than what you had before. You can make it slightly clearer by adding parentheses:

z += x == y ? x : (x == z ? y : 1);

But generally I'd stay away from nested conditional operators unless when golfing.
