5★ Stratagem Recommendations

It is difficult to research 5★ Stratagems to 100%, but they are usually very powerful. If you have relatively few Heroes on hand, we suggest you only dismantle them to obtain Lv.1 Stratagems.

When dismantling Stratagems, you should give priority to those that can increase the research progress of the Stratagems your main Heroes are using.
