I mean you won;t be top DPS as a HuSu or a Hu/anything right now (though HuFi can do impressive DPS if played well, it can't compare to Gu, Ra, Fi, Br or even Bo). That said, might as well get the most you can out of it!
As said before, Hunter's tree is pretty hard to take all that many skills due to how much SP their core stuff eats up and it's worse for Fury than it is for Guard. The upside of Fury is you don't need to land Just-Guards every 40s so its much more MPA friendly (though you probably shouldn't ever be bringing a HuSu to an MPA). If you're soloing mostly, then Guard Stance is better honestly, especially if you're using Sword most of the time.
I mean... here's at least a pair of base trees for Hunter for each stance:
Guard Stance:

Fury Stance:

Guard leaves you with 30 SP to spend while Fury leaves you with a measly 15. You can gain a couple more if you want to just specialize in Sword. Obviously up to you how you wanna spend em either way you go, just seein as it costs money to change your mind its good to know what you're gettin yourself into.
Personally I don't recommend Flash Guard for Hu main, nor Massive Hunter (charge parry and Sword gives plenty of super-armor already) or Iron Will. Automate is up to you. I'd recommend maxing S-atk ups (if Guard Stance) as it'll boost your Shifta and other attack buffs. Only max out Warcry if you want to try tanking I guess, though fair warning aggro is sort of broken in PSO2 atm. Tech Guard is a maybe, as Guard Stance offers little defence against Techs but otherwise too expensive for Fury tree imo and I feel like attack is more important.
And yeah as the above said, part of the attraction to HuSu (and HuBr outside of DragonSlayer) was not being penalized for being out of position, which happens a lot in group content. The changes to Fi stances mean its no longer a selling point to the combo, so now the only major thing /Su grants you is ridiculous survivability and access to techs.
