The recent errata has removed Ability Focus: Constrict as a pre-requisite for Final Embrace Horror.
However, it still leaves Ability Focus: Constrict as a pre-requisite for Final Embrace Master.
Was this intentional or accidental?
Final Embrace Horror: Should this have Ability Focus (constrict) as a prerequisite feat?
Ability Focus increases an ability's saving throw DC, but constrict doesn't require a grapple check rather than a saving throw, so Ability Focus (constrict) has no effect.
The game shouldn't require spending resources on game elements that do absolutely nothing. The design team hasn't decided whether to replace that feat prerequisite or remove it entirely; for now, disregard that feat prerequisite.
(This also applies to the Final Embrace Master feat.)
If this was intentional, wouldn't Weapon Focus: Grapple (or the like) be a better feat tax for a PC than a monster feat?
