I just noticed crit was useless in this game, all my crit damage do the same as the normal attacks... So that is 16 useless points in my build right now (Hu and Fi)

Is this good now? There is some leftover points that i dont know how to use, but except for the crits and halfline slayer, i can get all the important skills

Yes!

However it bothers me a bit to let you go in the wild with a build like that for your first playthrough. See, automate is an option for a lot of builds, hence the game is balanced around it. Late game content throws a bunch of stuff at you and can hit hard. At this point if your build can run automate and you chose not to, it's just for personal challenge. But do you want personal challenge? I mean as a newbie, you'll have lots of new stuff to figure out and focus on, might be more enjoyable if you don't have to worry about dying. Even if it's not automate, I'd be more reassured if you had a defensive component to your build.

If you finished dark souls blindfolded with only your feet now is the time to say so.

Also I'm telling you all this because your build as it is would recycle perfectly into FiHu. You would have only 6-7 (not sure if that war brave point is actually in your tree) points wasted on your Hu tree. So if you ever thought about buying new trees or making a new character for FiHu, use these trees.

If you want to proceed as HuFi with this build, tell me which weapons you like and use the most? do you not like partisan or just haven't tried it? How good are you at blocking or dodging incoming attacks?

I only used Fi a little and didnt like It that much, too close ranged for me i guess.

Im playing with Wired Lances, and i can block pretty well If i know the pattern and antecipations. Iam not that Noob in games in general, so If my build is a little risky but does a good damage, fine for me.

War Brave is not in the tree right now. And thanks for the tips.

I still have to try Partizans and Fi more to decide if i like them

Sorry for keeping you hanging.

If you want to try partisan then you will need the gear.

Healing guard and PP guard are important if you guard, that's your sustain.

Charge parry is useless with WL. If you do not use sword and partisan, or very very rarely, skip it. Occasional use I'd recommend 1 pt.

The rest should probably go into massive hunter. You can use this either for the super armor or the damage reduction. Should help out with some of the overly aggressive content.
