One innate power that every warlock knows is the eldritch blast. An eldritch blast is the warlock's most basic form of attack, a simple invocation that unleashes energy in the form of a ray. This ray has a range of 60 ft, and deals 1d6 untyped damage per 2 caster levels (rounded up) + your Charisma modifer as a ranged touch attack at a single target. Eldritch blast deals half damage to objects.

An eldritch blast counts as a 1st level spell-like ability, allowing you to apply feats such as Quicken Spell-Like Ability to it. In addition, an eldritch Blast counts as a spell of a level equal to half your caster level (rounded up) for the purposes of penetrating effects like Globe of Invulnerability. An eldritch Blast is subject to spell resistance, though the feat Spell Penetration and other effects that improve caster level and overcome spell resistance apply to eldritch blast. Metamagic feats that apply to invocations and feats that apply to abilities (like Ability Focus) or weapons (like Weapon Focus) can apply to eldritch blast.

An eldritch blast is an invocation, and does require a somatic component to perform. However, this somatic component is quite simple, such as just pointing at the target of the blast, leaving little openings for enemies to strike during the casting. Thus, using an eldritch blast does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
