Auto-target still works for Eldritch Blast (like ranged weapons), or you have to keep reaiming if you are not shooting a static target (like cold shot runearms)?
It's similar in most ways to arrows. We're still working on the exact details. If you target an enemy it will aim at that enemy, within a certain arc in front of you.



You said there will be no save for the force damage. Will it require a hit roll? (I think no, like damage spells. Just to be sure) Can it miss because of Concealment or Incorporeal? Are they subject to Spell Resistance?
No, No, and... No.


Will Eldritch Blast benefits from ranged weapon feats (Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, Improved Precise Shot) or Metamagic feats (Empower, Maximize, Quicken...)?
Tentatively ignores ranged combat feats and benefits from some Metamagic feats (probably not Quicken, but Empower and Maximize make sense, and possibly Enlarge).


Will this means that Charm spells will no longer expire in a few seconds against mobs with epic ward, or will it be a unique charm that don't expire earlier (like Wild Empathy)? Please, be the former.
We may examine the 9-16 second trigger in Epic Hard and Elite that can dispel charms. (I think it's 9-16 seconds, off the top of my head. Something like that. I looked it up last week. I know it's not just 2-3 seconds, which some posts seem to imply.)
