Silly shit. They were outgunned 7:1 artillery wise. You will never kill more than the other side if you are outgunned to such an extent. Propaganda death numbers are just that, propaganda.
Most likely 15-20k dead wagners, 20-25k dead ukranians in bakhmut. There are interviews from bakhmut were frontline ukr soldiers talk about artillery discrepancy..

Wagner is said to have recruited 40k from the prisons, whereas Bakhmut casualties are said to approach 100k.
Artillery on well-entrenched defenders is probably the only way they are inflicting casualties at all. If Ukraine thought it was on the losing end of that calculus, I doubt they would try so hard to keep doing it.
Brain damage. Also only some VDV and artillery groups were used in bakhmut, 95%+ of fighting was done by wagner. How would 5% of fighing account for 60% of deaths? Donkey shit.
3 trillion wagners were killed yesterday in belgorod also
