I would say, do what you gotta do to progress. But keep in mind that is in an accessory and isn't prioritized like the compound lifts, so you may find it hard to progress once your other lifts increase.
For now I would say go with a weight you can get some decent reps with. Once you can do 8-10 reps, bump up the weight for that set.
For example:
Week 1
pullups
bw-50lbs for 6 reps and 4 sets
Week 2
bw-50 8 reps 1 set (bump up the weight next week)
bw-50 6 reps 3 sets
Week 3
bw-55 6 reps (keep this weight, go for 7-8 next week)
bw-50 8 reps (probably keep this weight and go for 9-10 reps, rather than bumping up the weight)
bw-50 6 reps 2 sets
This is just something I pulled out of thin air, but its an easy way to keep progressing.
