Rin maximun output is 1000 and base prana is 500. Saber has 1200-1300 prana units so its easy to see why she cant use it more than once at full power, then we can say that one Excaliblast is around 1k prana cost wise.

Shirou has 20-30 prana units but we dont know his maximum output, and we can be certain that UBW deployment + sustain if far more expensive than 30 prana. When Shirou was using it Rin was complaining that Shirou was draining her prana reserves HARD, and thats coming from a 500 prana magus

Also Archer CANT trace Excalibur but he can trace a similar weapon with a similar active effect. Tracing it is not the problem (its quite cheap in fact thats why he can use swordspam) but using it as NP since it will probably drain tons of prana to get close to Excalibur's output. Only on Moon Cell, he is able to trace Excalibur Image since tracing got a boost there.
Well well well I need to dive back to the VN when I have the time!

Also, Archer is known to be a big fat liar(he's been lying since day one to Rin about his identity) so there's no knowing if he can trace Excalibur or not. He did say he can, but he might be lying...damn Archception.
