A high Dex is crucial to both, while Str isn't as important as it is for straight melee fighters. Be aware, though, that since the fighter is now a Wererat, the character is effectively an 8th-level character (5 fighter levels, +1 rat hit die, +2 afflicted lycanthrope level adjustment). So you won't actually gain your 6th regular class level until you gain enough experience to reach 9th character level. Unless your DM uses different rules for lycanthropes :)
