Considering that the enemies in your first run don't hit that hard if your even halfway careful then it doesn't matter what class you choose. But I can recommend some stats. You don't need more than 20 vit in your first run, but I would put some points in that every so often to make sure you can survive hits when you get to a new zone. Dex is great for a first timer because of how many great weapon it lets you use. Bows, spears, halberds, katanas, ect ect. Just a great stat. get just enough str to be able to use your chosen gear. 16 is good because that covers all the shields you really need to make your life easier. try to keep your End pointed up too. Your stamina decides lots of things like how long you can attack, how long you can block, how much you can roll away and how long you can run away(hahaha, yes you will do this)! For most creatures in the game if you can parry and backstab then you are golden. The ones you can't you need to learn how to exploit both your surroundings and the enemies own attacks. Feel no shame for cheesing everything on your first playthrough. Its about surviving long enough to learn how to play it right and enjoy it.
