Best Answer

Odysseus first kills unsuspecting Antinous with an arrow to the throat. He then kills pleading Eurymachus, with an arrow to the nipple once the negotiation breaks down. Odysseus kills many suitors with his arrows, before he runs out of them. He then kills Demoptolemus with a thrown spear, and then Eurydamas with his second throw. He kills Agelaus, son of Damastor with a spear in close combat. His party kills many cowering suitors. He kills Leoides, the pleading priest, before going on to finish the rest of the suitors.

It is assumed he kills many men, although most remain unnamed.
