Good morning my friends, how are you?
Could you explain to me how Physical RES works?
Cheers. 
It works like other resistances, reducing the incoming physical/internal trauma damage.
But there’s one thing to mention, armor. Physical damage have to go through armor first and then to through physical resistance.
So armor is good to soak small hits like trauma and minor hits, while physical resistance helps with big heavy hits.
Also worth noting most of the attacks that can kill you deal split physical/magical damage, so protection against physical harm is very important. For example with low physical resistance Alex’s meteor can really hurt you.

Nery as always keen on the issues of the game.
Thanks for the explanation, my doubt arose because i did a Battlemage of Blade Arc / Devastation with elemental damage converted to Physical and i noticed that i do not facetank with any right boss, and i noticed that my phy res was at 18% (very slow). In spite of all this, the build is very solid and makes the maps very smooth, the only problem is the one i mentioned.

Worth noting that Internal Trauma is not actually effected by armour, only by Physical Resistance which is why it’s so potent both against all varieties of enemies and against your character when it is dealt back (especially when reflected back on Trauma builds 
).
Everything else Nery said is on point though
