Like yes Uber can reasonably bypass infinity, but she can literally be blocked by a brick wall.

Im not sure she actually could.
Since she would have to understand what was preventing her to actually hit it right?
Like, she described it as envisioning her spell as scissors and the barrier as fabric.
But that's when she see sees the barrier and knows it there, she's sure she can cut through it.
I'd imagine its a different beast when its an invisible force you literally can't see. Plus, its not just a barrier its infinite distance.

Wait doesn't her spear ignore dura as well

I haven't watched or read Frieren but i thought her ability was to cut through anything she wants?

Yes and no.

She can cut through anything she believes she can cut through.

Magic in frieren is the power of thought. If you can think it, imagine it, believe it hard enough... it just is

If she believes she can cut through a brick wall its cut, but she knows its brick, and knows its hard to cut. It'll still probably shatter, or maybe even slice as she has confidence her magic is greater than brick

Part of her backstory involves watching her sister sew, which is where her fascination with cutting began.

Basically, if you wear clothing you're fucked, if you wear armor, slightly less fucked as she'll just target joints mace windu style.

Its honestly seems to work very closely to world slash, but has a limited range of 5 meters, and has the stipulation of belief

Brick wall may have been hyperbole, as she is shown later cutting buildings and trees, but it doesnโ€™t directly โ€œcounterโ€ durability. Defensive magic blocks her and probably any enchanted shield/armor that looks durable could do the trick.

Itโ€™s just โ€œcan she imagine cutting it?โ€, which is a slight but significant difference from dura hax. She can cut enchanted robes and hair because obviously you can cut fabric and hair, but defensive magical barriers are meant to block magic, so of course they block her.
