All three factions have a certain advantage/disadvantage, although most players with an offensive playstyle favor either Heralds or Legion.

Legion has some great perks for people who like to play as a tank, basically breaking through enemy's defense and dealing a lot damage, though slowly. There is bleeding, breacher, basher, berserk, lifesteal and many more great perks on this faction which often gets sidelined for new factions down the road. I have not played with Legion gear much but apparently dual swords and two handed-swords make for great weapons.

Heralds are good for quick reaction. Almost all Herald weapons have OP special abilities, from the Katana to the Claws. Critical mass, time bomb and Interference is one of the most toxic perk combinations in this game imo. Got me killed so many times while I couldn't even react - its just that OP. Vaporization and Deflection are good too. All in all, Heralds have a great balance of both offensive and defensive perks.

Dynasty is more of a defensive/sly class. Poisoning enemies, backstabbing them etc etc. Sabers and Guandou are very good. In terms of perks, I like poison skin, wolverine and flurry.

So who will I pick? Based solely on the perks, Legion. But keeping a balance of weapon ability and perks in mind, I'll go Heralds. Ofc, since I have the game on two different devices I luckily get to play both xD

This is a personal opinion. People are free to disagree. For a complete list of perks see here.
