Best is stoic, but it benefits more from higher difficulties. Other good perks include kingpin (also works better on higher difficulties and is worse on lower ones), hacker, anarchist, armourer and sicario. Contrary to what new players think, crew chief is also a very strong deck.

Most fun I’d say would be anarchist and grinder generally. Anarchists armour regen means you can be aggressive and have your health untouched if you use your 2s invincibility and armour gating well. Grinders health regen just feels satisfying, you become god on lower difficulties, it definitely works on higher difficulties still, even death sentence, it just requires more passivity.

If you want a good deck that is beginner friendly and works on all difficulties, I recommend armourer, then hacker.

I had a lot of fun with Yakuza, Anarchist, Armorer, Crew Chief, and Muscle.

Best: Anarchist, Stoic, armorer can be okay though I personally prefer anarchist, and hacker is sometimes used pretty effectively. On death sentence, which you shouldn't be doing outside of stealth for a very long time, anarchist and stoic are some of the meta perk decks, though for anarchist you aren't using the extra armor so much as a mechanic called armor gating, whereas on lower difficulties the armor serves fine. For most fun, I like anarchist, sociopath, occasionally hacker, though niche builds using miscellaneous perk decks can also be pretty enjoyable.

In stealth I'm mostly using Yakuza cuz the speed is so satisfying. In loud missions I prefer Stoic.

People forget about Kingpin - once you figure out how to utilize it it becomes REALLY fun and powerful.

It depends on your playstyle, if you like tanking stuff and destroying enemies, maybe stoic, but if you like sneaking around and killing people in the dark of night, rouge is useful.

Personally. I am a Crew Chief kind of guy. I think it is a fun deck to play with because, to use it to it's full potential, you need some discipline.

From someone who sits quite a while in this game :
Try to learn what all of them do and try each and every, you'll see for yourself which one suits you the most :)

If you look for a build inspiration
Guide where couple of my friends and I put together all builds for highest difficulty, but they'll work on any tbh
