Should I use Privacy Badger in addition to Brave Shields?

I know that in a lot of privacy communities they recommend to use uBlock in addition to Privacy Badger. The reason for this, I believe, is the uBlock functions off of block lists while Privacy Badger functions by recognizing the behavior of trackers. Does Brave Shields only function off of block lists or should I also install privacy badger? Please correct me if I got any of those details wrong.

AFAIK no, privacy badger doesnt really offer more than what you can get from brave settings and likely makes your fingerprint more unique.
