History

Which outcome occurs because of the use of 'coutes' on late Medieval plate iron armor?

A)Increased maneuverability of elbow joints
B)Reduced susceptibility to rust corrosion
C)Enhanced structural integrity of polearms
D)Improved dispersal pattern for gunpowder.

💡 Explanation

Coutes are elbow defenses; having articulated plates enables rotational movement, a mechanism improving joint mobility against a weapon; therefore, maneuverability increases rather than structural enhancement, because of focused articulation rather than blunt coverage.
