For really hard metals (like stainless) you would want cobalt bits, but be aware that they are more prone to breakage due to their extreme hardness.
For brick/masonry drilling use bits specifically made for masonry which have a different design and are "softer" to resist breakage. Diamond coated bits also excel for this use and should also be used when drilling ceramics.
Finally, impact rated bits, for both drilling and driving, have a softer section on their barrel that is made to absorb the "shock" of an impact driver which hits hard and then backs off to hit hard again over and over. By absorbing the heavy shocks the bit itself is less likely to break in half.

Wood/metal?
I have a hard time figuring and distinguishing between metal, wood, plastic, and brick.
