I killed a boar today with 30 ua. lol
But YOU are talking about MC sooooo....
yup, and you can probably get by with a bit less in MC as long as you either have a good enough weapon or know the combat system well enough. I've never tried a boar at less than 50 UA myself and can kill a fox at around 20-25 UA if I have the right combat skills (probably less if I didn't want to die to lag).
Back to OP:
As far as Strength for MC, you really don't need more than 10. You're weapon will more than make up for it. Even a stone axe does more damage (100 base) than punch (50 base), even more so when used with cleave or chop (especially since punch now only does 3/4 damage). Almost any sword will more than kill a boar or fox even with 10 STR. I wouldn't use a B12 unless you have some good UA skills, too, as without a shield you'll be stuck needing maneuvers to build your defense back up. It is possible to swap out gear in the fight, though, so you could use a shield while breaking defense and swap to the B12 for the killing blow.
As far as agility, I'd suggest at least animal level * 5 for boars and foxes. Foxes have pretty good agility, boars don't.
Con isn't as important as you think. If the animal breaks through to actually deal damage, you're already in trouble. Extra con might give you a bit more of a run to get to safety. (You are fighting somewhere you can escape to, right? Nothing like making a wrong move or a bit of lag to ruin your day.)
