Well, of course he'd expect to take a hit in his stability if he goes goes reverse joint... that's not the high point of RJs after all. However, the Gazelle, Oryx2 and A2 might work. The premise lies in changing tactics and not playing it as a regular biped (i.e., skating, regular boosting). He'd have to hop like mad to effectively get something out of the frame. Which is good, since while he's in the air, not boosting, the generator is recharging. Many good energy platforms have been on RJ legs.

The focus of adding the ROE2, IIRC, was just for testing whether other laser rifles in conjunction with them were broken (for the tourney rules). I guess Rick liked it enough to make a topic out of it.
Still, you gotta see that with the extensions, the allowable margin of spamming and missing and ultimately psyching out your opponent with scary and very hot Hollow shots is something that isn't necessarily there when without them, yet is very valuable in a real match.
On a final note, wanzerfreak has an avatar and a signature pic now? WTF is the world coming to? XD
