That's because Dark Souls doesn't have any classes in it. Your build is based on what playstyle you want, and will be different depending on choices like:

- Do you dodge like a maniac or are you a damage sponge? - If you're not a sorcerer, how much magic will you lean into your character?

No one else can tell you what build to use. The game is themed on you gradually tailoring your character to your preferences.

The only real catch is that you don't always know from the get-go exactly what weapon you'll be using, nor is it always available. Ah well.
