Half-Dragon Breath Weapons

[Greatfrito]

Okay, so I love the fact that half-dragons have a flat value for damage with their breath weapons now (in 3.0 each had a different number for damage dice, didn't they?), but it seems like the save DC is gonna be really low. Do you get to use class HD for the DC determination? (I know it's a no, but still... it just sucks so bad... I have to hope...) If no, would you consider levels in the Half-Dragon Paragon class as racial HD for the purpose of breath weapons? And what ways (feats and such) can you increase the save DC? I know there's the heighten Breath feat from the Draconomicon and I think there was a feat in Savage Species...

Nope, class hit dice don't count. Te half-dragon breath weapon works much better on monsters than humans.

Ability focus from the MM would boost the DC by 2.
