The highest I've taken a dracon is level 9, a rogue, and I've seen his breath to 10-12 damage to one and may 7-10 on 3 or 4 more enemies.

Thing is, I play ranged/magic parties who stand back and wait for the enemies to come and say hello. In that kind of party a character without a ranged attack of some sort is simply a tourist viewing the scenery. Sure you can give him or her a bow but unless you put points into it it isn't going to be that wonderful most of the time.

So yeah, the breath is somewhat window dressing but it can be useful to wipe off a few HPs until the dracon's in melee range.
