Just the ones we see from their movies.

Legolas' skills with a sword were impressive if not numerous. If it was from his feats only from the LotR movies I'd give Achilles a chance but Legolas' agility in Desolation of Smaug was just ridiculous and that combined with his limited sword skill he'd probably cut Achilles to ribbons.

Uh, okay, and what feats does he have in that regard?

His best feat, for me, and one that is overlooked is his almost superhuman awareness in battle. Several times he blocks arrows without even focusing all that much on who is firing them. One he blocks coming behind him without even looking at all. He just 'knows'.
Not that it would do him much good against Legolas given some of his outrageous feats in the barrel chase scene.

Someone clearly hasn't seen LotR 1-3 or Desolation of Smaug.

When does Legolas block arrows? I just rewatched most of his battles in DoS and didn't see him do so.
Ironically, Achilles does block an arrow coming from his back without looking when he flips his shield on his back. Rewatching the scene where he single handily takes down the temple guard makes me give him the win.

I was talking about Achilles. The thread's only a few posts long. Try and keep up.
Even still. You lose. Achilles wouldn't land a blow. Legolas' feats of agility means he'd dominate Achilles.

Nope. Leoglas isn't untouchable. Bolg managed to get a few good hits it.
Jumping on heads is all well and good, but it doesn't net him the win against Achilles' far more impressive swordsmanship.

Achilles may have a better chance in the terrain he fought Hector in. Flat and featureless. Anything in which agility can be exploited then Achilles gets dominated. Legolas is superhuman in that regard.

Your talking about orcs and goblins vs a demi god.

Achilles is faster, stronger and better with a sword and shield then Lagolas.

Wrong. Achilles stormed a beach against a grounded force with minimal men and easily conquered it. Achilles wasn't some specialized fighter he excelled in any given situation.
Achilles wins. He crushed his competition whereas Legolas hasn't even killed that minor Orc yet despite a lengthy battle.

Legolas due to ridiculously superior speed and agility.
Also pretty sure this thread already exist, but it was definitely made before Hobbit: DoS.

Minor Orc? Bolg is Azog The Defiler's son, Azog who is pretty much the most famous and powerful Orc in history. And Bolg went on to have a few pretty serious victories under his belt.
