You should also try 25 endurance and 25 vitality.

Pretend that Int is only there for weaponbuffs for 90% of the game. So when you reach the endgame, you are actually capable of doing damage. Then you suddenly realize "♥♥♥♥ every1 dodges my majic :cc" and reevaluate your choices in life. Recognizing that it was a mistake, you end yourself.
Jokes aside, the viable offensive PvP spells can be counted on one hand, regular homing soulmasses, crystal hail, farron hail, crystal soul spear, great farron dart. Maybe also great soul arrow. Snap freeze is a sweet cover and actually capable of inducing frostbite. Plus you can carry a weaponbuff.
Obviously you can't really use all the above spells at once. I'd go with a setup like homing soulmasses + crystal hail/farron hail + great soul arrow/great farron dart + crystal soul spear + crystal magic weapon + snap freeze. That means 6 slots, I'd go with 24 Atn & Darkmoon Ring.
As for Str, you want 12 for a nice variety of 1h light weapons and 2h heavier weapons. And you can actually use a pretty decent shield if needed, the sunset shield.
60 Int for dmg, otherwise sorc sucks.
40 Dex for softcapped scaling and no huge reliance on buffs.
39 vigor because otherwise you're toasted quickly.
Rest in End. Consider using green blossoms.

125 meta'd look like this: https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/325835
Don't start as assassin, start as sorc.
For the other 2 rings, I'd usually use ring of favor & bellowing dragoncrest ring.
Maybe Str to 18 and End down to 17 to open up more equipment possibilities, that's preference.
The end.

If You will be like THOSE mages that cast homing soul mass and keep turning around I'll throw poop at You.

If you also wanna stick to 120 I'd just settle for 52 Int. Or you get 59 Int and stick to the base End (becomes 16 with the ring). It isn't a lot but sufficient for duels, at least when you use light weapons. Stamina management is pretty easy in this game.
