Yep. Stamina is key. I remember my valks doing more damage than everyone else. Once I was wedged in a corner facing about a dozen scorchers. After getting spells up, I had everyone except the bard and bishop breathing on the scorchers. We were able to out-breathe the scorchers (talk about halitosis)! The damage difference was very noticeable between high and low current stamina.

I didn't really test, but if you're not a Dracon, the power of your breath might also be tied to the duration left on your breath enchantment. Could be bad memory on my part, but I seemed to notice slightly less damage near the spell's end even with full stamina.
