like always want the scouts to survive. yes traps go off and losses vary but this is the cheapest formula i have come up with going off dxcalc. like all other formulas u can lower the number of archers u send depending on hero size but so far according to the calculator this is the cheapest resource losses ive come up with so far.im sure others may have posted this and im guessing others are using it already if it hasnt been posted well it is now but didnt feel like looking to see.
Don't use dxcalc for npc farming.

It isn't only about resource costs, but time of troops training and number of troop types used.

If you have to keep training works/wars which u probly wont make on a regular basis, your using pop that could be otherwise used on scouts or archers. Pop is the limiting factor, don't waste it.

1 sword and pike don't do anything.
