I would say Pyromancer. If you allot yourself say 30 vit, 25 end, 19 att (three slots), and 15 each of dex and str (which would allow you to use almost any weapon within reason i.e. not Smough's Hammer), you would be level 51. The warrior, bandit, and hunter classes would also be at 51 with one less free point of resistance (which is hardly worth investing in). If you continue to put say 40 points in either dex or str, the Pyromancer remains on top (followed again by warrior and bandit). Furthermore, you start out with fire which is basically awesome.

So basically, you can level up faster, choose either a dex or str, and throw fire at people. So, if you aren't looking for any int or faith this is your man.

Interestingly enough, if you add int into the mix, Pyromancer is still towards the top, except you won't start with a catalyst :(

For faith though, Pyromancer falls way down behind the Bandit, Cleric, and Warrior respectively. Of course the Bandit and Warrior don't start with any Talismans.

Finally, if you're looking to free build, Deprived probably isnt the way to go.

I hope that someone will find this rather lengthy explanation helpful in the future.
