The damage is below the 10d6 of a regular Fireball or Lightining bolt. The number of breaths is also limited despite the spell duration being long. Depending on the type of breath your Arcane spell caster would have to position himself around the combat... not something Wizards are commonly doing. Getting out from behind the fighter "shield" is sometimes dangerous.   If you cast before combat... you might not pick the best energy type for what you're facing... and if you cast it during combat you don't breathe on the same round you cast it. Strong spellcasters can't afford to lose a round in combat.   The DC would be the same as the spell level it was cast... and I would say its not supernatural... spell like or just spell ? Remember to calculate the breath damage properly... its like 7d6 only in 14th lvl for example.    Well now to counter argue myself... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />   The other spell with the same name sucks badly IMHO. This spell is in fact a bit overpowered for 3rd lvl... but not much so I feel. In fact I think its uses out of combat are more interesting... like using acid breath to carve out an escape or exit.</blockquote>
