I believe it is because they are not spells they are special abilities. Special abilities do not follow the same rules as spells. They can be used when based, they aren't subject to the beholder, etc.

Your title says "DR". Damage Reduction doesn't apply to spells, breath weapons, etc. If you mean spell resistance, then remember that special abilities aren't subject to SR. That's why it says the Fire Wand is subject to SR.

It's deja vu all over again.

I would assume without that, it doesn't, but then why would fire wand specify that SR applies? Confused. I know melf's acid arrow ignores SR, but does all acid ignore it? Edited title. Didn't remember that special abilities aren't subject to SR. Yes, the acid wand ignores SR and SR All.
