Using this reference

Read Eldritch Blast with its action cost, range and area in view. Range tells you how far the reference allows a target or placement; area describes the space affected. They answer different questions and should not be added together as a single reach value.

If damage dice are listed, remember that the notation describes a roll rather than a guaranteed result. Compare saving-throw and damage-type fields before deciding how the spell fits a turn. The page does not resolve resistance, a successful save or interactions with other active effects.

One useful comparison

For Recorded range (m), Eldritch Blast is listed at 18, compared with 1.5 for Cure Wounds: a difference of 16.5. This compares that field in the recorded variants only. Read the other fields before deciding whether the trade-off matters to your use.
