Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
answer: 2

Achilles lets his friend Patroclus use his armor during a battle, where his is mistaken for Achilles. After killing Patroclus, the Trojan hero, Hector, takes Achilles' armor and wears it. Finally, the god Hephaestus makes a new set of armor for Achilles, which the hero wears to fight and kill Hector.
