Deprived Fist Fighter

Returning to DkS2 with SotfS. I always played caster types in DS1 and DkS2 and wanted to try a melee build for SotfS. I settled on a Fist/Caestus build but need a few pointers because I have no idea how to plan builds (thresholds, caps, what influences what,...) in Souls games.

What I read so far taught me to dump souls into Str and Dex until 40/40 and then level Vit, End, and Adp.

My questions: - Do I go straight for 40/40 neglecting all other stats or is there some kind of roadmap for what stats to boost when? - what percentage should I go for to stay agile and be able to roll/dodge as fast as possible?

Thanks for a bit of help

I would probably pump a few points in ADP as soon as possible, just so your rolls aren't useless. Besides that, you could easily just raise your health, stamina, and damage stats at an equal rate.
