How does Achilles differ from Gilgamesh as an epic hero?
I don’t know much but I’m pretty sure that Gilgamesh all brawn and very reckless. Gilgamesh was a king but stayed there because I think people feared him (I could be wrong). Gilgamesh also a man he bested in combat became his best friend (forget his name). Also the only way to calm Gilgamesh down was sex which some girl gave him anytime he needed it, out of the goodness of her heart. So you could say; Gilgamesh was all brawn and very reckless, Gilgamesh remained king through fear, He had a Aid and Best Friend in combat, and needed Sex to keep him from destroying everything in a rampage.
