Dragonborn Breath Weapons
Apparently brass dragonborn's is the only dragonborn breath weapon that isn't a cone, which feels really out of place. IMO it would make more sense to either:

1 - have all breath weapons be cones instead of 1 outlier.
2 - have half of the breath weapons be in a line instead of a cone (like it is in the Player's Handbook or Fizban's Treasury of Dragons)

(Also the range of the brass breath weapon is the same as the cone ones, whilst in PHB and FToB the line breath weapons have double the range of the cone ones.)

Even if brass being the sole breath weapon in a line is correct according to some source I don't know of I would still argue that either of these options (especially 2) would be better than just brass.

Red, Gold and Brass dragons are fire type. Red and Gold have a cone attack. Brass is a column. The game tooltip does says that correctly, even changes the image.

Black and Copper dragons are acid type. Both say they have a cone of acid in the tooltip but both are a column attack. Error here.

Blue and Bronze dragons are electric type. Both say they have a cone of lightning attack in the tooltip but both are a column attack. Error here.

Silver and White dragons are ice type. Both say they have a cone of ice and it's correct.

Green dragons are poison type. Tooltip says it's a cone attack and it's correct.

I don't know how it should be in the Player's Handbook but right now, the tooltip is incoherent with the skill in game and there's no balance, ex: I would like to have a cone of electric attack and there are only columns.
