    Achilles knew he was going to win the fight against Hector but he also knew he was fated to die only after Hector. So he was immortal as long as Hector lived. He had one more epic duel with a Trojan ally. He knew he could lose but he won. The fates always win. He was killed in battle but never bested in single combat. After the war Aeneas escaped and eventually founded the city of USC.

      Achilles, if we see this through a more distant eye, is practically a spoiled brat: granted, he had every right to be angry at Agamemnon for his disrespectful behaviour, but he could have just left. Instead, he asked for a ton of calamities for his comrades, just so he can salvage his wounded pride

    How come this doesn't touch on the most important aspect of this fight? Hector was using Achilles's armor, the armor he took from Patroclus. He was "the old Achilles". The one that put pride above all. And Achilles, in this fight, was using a new armor. He was a newer Achilles. He was at his prime fury.
    It was Achilles vs Achilles. Achilles fighting his old self, his old burdens and mistakes.
    Really weird that it ignores the significance of this fight by missing out VERY important details.

    Hector was always my favorite and Eric Bana's portrayal of him in Troy sealed it. That scene was hard to watch when I was younger and honestly still is but that fight was epic. Achilles was Achilles though and was the best for a reason. I liked that in the end, he did the honorable thing for Hector's body.

    Although i want to empathize with Hector, he did helped in breaking the pact between Paris and Menelaus by intervening. Achilles did not trust Hector with the pact he offered to begin with (even though he was confident about his victory). Whether Hector would have kept his word or not, he had it coming from the moment he decided to protect Paris from Greeks. Achilles went overboard with his brutal vengeance but i can see why he did not take Hector's offer. Despite Hector being considered the noblest of Troy, he was a not very honorable on a universal scale.
    love the series btw.

Actually, the god had made exceptional fighting tools purposefully for the greatest warrior.

    Yes, the death of Patroclus cuts Achilles to the quick....and in part he blames himself for allowing Patroclus to wear his armor in the first place...yet the plan of doing so came not from Patroclus but from an idea that old Nestor gave him....notice that when told of his friend's death and the grief Achilles undergoes, we don't hear anything from old Nestor about HIS role in this debacle! I guess with age, does come wisdom.

    Good, we are used to cinematic fight scenes, the duel between the two epic heroes: Achilles & Hector, is a brief affair.
    Hector ought to be depicted wearing the old armour of Achilles though.
    Incidentally, it is amusing to imagine the spectacle of the two warriors running around in circles, with crowds of archaeans trailing behind them, attempting to slay Hector with unfocused projectiles. Like a wacky rat race.

    Maaan I can't accept the outcome of this fight, it was cool for sure, but Achilles had such amazing support, having armor crafted by Hephaestus himself as one of them, Hector had nothing to match that level of support. Not saying Achilles shouldn't have won the fight, but this fight just seemed pretty one-sided to me.

      ​@@alecvillavilla9978I mean, you have to admit that an armor made by Hephaestus isn't just a minecraft skin,but a very powerful support. Also, if you do the math, by the time of this fight Achilles was between 20 and 30,while Hector was 40 at least (if we presume that when Paris came back to Troy, Hector was just 20 and then 20 years passed),and considering that there isn't much skill difference between the two, Achilles is obviously in a better position than Hector. Also it didn't help the fact that Achilles had a spear (since athena took it and threw it back to him), while Hector didn't (since athena made him think to have his brother ready to gave it back to him). A spear is 2-3 metres long, while Hector had to be much closer to attack Achilles directly. If you see it this way, Achilles had a real big advantage over Hector.
