All "instagib" attacks in Median XL are designed to bypass SA. That includes DP's beam, Crystal Ball's beam in CoV, Barrels in Duncraig, etc. SA is meant to protect you against non-instagib, non-poison damage.

It works against physical damage component of spells (like Quov Tsin's beam).

In general if the damage type of a stat is not mentioned you can assume it to be physical. So damage reduction (flat and percent) apply only to physical damage. But they're not just for attacks, both spells and attacks that do physical damage are affected. It's exactly analogous to how elemental resistances apply both to elemental spells and monster attacks that carry elemental damage.

another question i have since i have never done all the ubers yet so far. Is there a build in the game that exists that can get all the charms in the game with just tus, runewords and crafts or are su items pretty much mandatory to do the harder stuff?
