Those legs seem like a blessing and a curse. They're electronic. And just like Yang, I think some well aimed electric or fire attack to them will end up making them explode or at least melt and burn his thighs. We can use that to launch assault. He'll likely double over in pain or limp. During that time, they strike and dogpile attacks on him. Sorry about continuing the Cinder topic this post didn't pop up. For Merc his legs give him a big advantage/disadvantage I think cause they allow him to have a little more umph behind his kicks but as you said are extremely vulnerable to electric and fire attacks. But I don't think RWBY knows about his legs yet.
