If Achilles deems Legolas worthy of his sword there's nothing Legolas can do to survive.At best he can prolong his inevitable death.
Except defeat him with a combo of his superior Elven strength, speed, agility and accuracy you mean. Last I check, those mattered in a fight like this.

Achilles didn't have a shield in that scene, so the shot through his heel was mostly irrelevant.Remove that first arrow from his foot; Achilles still dies to the arrow wounds in his abdomen.
Canon.

Considering we've only seen Achilles block one arrow and nothing suggest that the archers in Troy come close to Legolas who has never missed, it's an unfounded statement, "he'll just block everything."
The director of Troy has specifically said he left out the mythical aspects of Troy; most importantly, Achilles did not show any divine powers/origins(unless you have some screen proof?), he was just a very highly skilled human.
Originally posted by RobtardHe just needs to block enough to get close to Legolas, which he will, with his shield that covers most of his body.

His mother can predict the future. Achilles has talked about meeting the gods. His brain explodes when he's shot through his heel.
Sorry, can't argue against canon, Rob. Achilles is invulnerable.

Legolas' 100% hit rate > your wishes. The shield does not cover his whole body and he certainly needs to leave his head exposed.
So you don't have proof that movie Achilles was invulnerable like his poetic counterpart. Thought so.
Ignoring the film won't make your claims correct. Sorry, MVF rules.

They were exaggerated and I did forget about Legolas failing to killing a Uruk Hai running in a straight line to blow up the wall in time. The guy was utterly exposed with no way to defend himself and with all that on the line Legolas utterly failed. /thread.
You realize that you're bringing up a moment of complete, obvious PIS?
Achilles's shield doesn't cover his entire body. Legolas aims for his enemies' weak spots. The Elf can fire an arrow every second. Based on Achilles' death scene, just a single arrow would be enough to slow him down.
Not to mention Legolas fires an arrow strong enough to pierce through a massive elephant's skull, I'm sure that the single arrow that hits Achilles packs more than enough punch to "Boromir" Achilles.

Originally posted by RobtardWe've seen Legolas fail to kill a Uruk Hai running in a straight line without even protecting himself. That scene kinda makes Legolas look really bad and when you throw him up against someone who have the presence of mind to easily deflect arrows while engage in multiple sword fights it's not even competitive.

He will hit his shield 100% of the time, cool.His head has a helmet.
I provided the proof, not that he needs invulnerability to kill one pointy eared puff.
Haha, nice try.
Helmets aren't necessarily arrow-proof, especially from a bow that and drill into an Oliphant's skull.
No, you said "his mother can predict the future" and some other nonsense.

LoL, we've gone over this multiple times, downplaying many great showings while focusing on one lesser showing doesn't fly here.
I understand why you continue to do it, as it's all you're capable of, so continue to dance for me like a good organ-grinder monkey.
