Respect was a big difference between the two beowulf had lots of respect from his warriors as he began dieing in his last battle the warriors stepped in and defended beowulf but achillies didn't have much respect he was more of the kind of guy that thought he was big and bad and could fight/kill anyone in the area. They were both similar because they were both hero's beowulf fought grendel and grendel's mother and won both he also fought the dragon but lost, achillies killed hector thats why he was a hero. The last point is that beowulf fought to protect his warriors and to make places more peaceful not just to injure/hurt someone, on the other hand achilles mainly fought for revenge, social position, and power.
