The Cleaner + Dulled range

This is more something I'm interested in.
So the cleaner adds more damage for the foes buffs, meanwhile dulled range is able to ignore the foes buffs.

I'm wondering if a unit with the cleaner equipped has dulled ranged, do they still get the bonus damage and ignore the foes stat buffs, or does dulled range cancel it out and prevent you getting bonus damage.

Mainly wondering because if you do ignore the foes buffs and still get bonus damage I feel it could be very useful for mage tank daggers or even milked bulk dagger units looking to counter ranged units in general.

I would test myself but alas 200 orbs on this banner 3 5 stars, none focus, 2 -atk WT Reinhardts and a fallen Celica who was probs the only good one I got as she's a merge project

Can't truly say (cause I don't have either skills) but from existing relationships like Hardy bearing and Desperation/vantage I think that Dull range cancel it out and the cleaner won't get the bonuses. cause the effects states "During Combat"
The cleaner
Adds total bonuses on foe to damage dealt during combat. After combat, if unit attacked, inflicts Def/Res-7 on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions.

Dull range
If foe uses bow, dagger, magic, or staff, neutralizes foe's bonuses (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during combat.

Kinda in response to everyone

Yeah that's what I'm thinking looking at them but part of me but it really depends on when the skills count their damage I guess

though hardy baring is made to cancel them out on purpose idk on these two, its more implied but not stated so still hoping if someone can try it out?

I think though part of me is hoping it is as it'd really give dagger units a solid niche in the Meta compared to how well inferior to bows they are right now.

Edit: somebody else said the exact same thing before I could. Interested to see somebody test this out though!

I think they might have made it so they don't work in synergy. But if it works I would like to use it in Arena Assault or in anything that has mages like Nino.
