So, here's a thought. They have advanced, military grade prosthetics designed for combat used by huntsman.

Mercury walks as naturally with his robot legs as anyone who has never had to have such a procedure performed.

Even after years of practice people with ordinary prosthetics still have some trouble with fluid movement and cannot replicate fine motion like twisting an ankle.

Is it at all possible the prosthetic is controlled via artificial nerves grafted to his own system a la automail? If so, then it is possible the pain he showed wasn't entirely fake, his timing was way too damned good for that, pretty much perfect in fact. Not to mention his comment about being "way too tight" in reference to a screw somewhat below the apparent point of connection. Something that would not be obvious at a glance, and he did seem to express physical discomfort as a result of it.
