Synapse's line:

Now I know why you villains are always so cranky; there isnt a decent place to eat within miles.

I responded right away with, "Eat me."
Now, as a MM, I was staying away from direct contact with Synapse (and all monster class foes). And so, after my riposte, I see Synapse start to move around through the crowd, and I get nervous that he's looking for me for that response.
Luckily, I have Super Speed, too, and I let all the melee-ers stay inbetween us.
Synapse also seemed eager to run away every time I Darkest Night-ed him (-ACC), but I kept up, mostly.

Here are a few screen shot I got from the Beta ending. How do you get the labels and everything else to capture?

The command is /screenshotui 1 to make the trays and names show up in screenshots. Use 0 instead of 1 to turn it off again.

What are Ms. Liberty's powers?
Did she use the sword?

Another person posted this screen showing Ms. Liberty's sets of powers...
Well I had my fun with Elistia, my lvl 12 Erg/Erg Brute.
Lets see ... I was the first to meet up with War Witch on the MI3 I was on. She came up and punched me in the face, so I punched her back. I kept knocking her temp powers off with my Brawl .. go me!
On MI4 I believe it was ...
Ravenstorm ... I loathe you .. little punk kept one shotting me form BEHIND! Hello ... you are a villain aren't you?
Back Alley Brawler ... ah .. soo many close ups of your fists ... and your foot ... fun fun! Until I shouted in Broadcast for everyone to beat up on you ... then Ravenstorm one shotted me again ... little twit.
But Synapse ... little Synapse .. you are now officially on my "I'm gonna slap you around like a b****" list. Why? Because you were there, turned around to look at me, smiled, then drained all my endurance and took me out with your lightning bolt. I WILL DESTROY YOU! And Manticore, you can tell him that too ... 
I missed States sadly, but ran into all the Agents more or less. Was around when Agent Grell<sp?> went down, and when one of the other Agents, forget the name, was picking villains off as they ran out of Kalindra's base .. that was funny.

B) they all had a power pool called resistance..prolly due to
global defense cut. They left those hero's back to patrol
kings row where it's safer. Notice theres no fire or ice
tanks in the freedom phalanx, too squishy 
[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, I think Resistance is something along the lines of the Giant Monster code. There was no way my level 8 Brute could consistently hit a level 50, but I managed to land a few blows nevertheless.
I could be wrong, of course.
[/ QUOTE ]
It was specifically stated by Positron that they were using Giant monster code for the Freedom Phalanx and the Longbow Agents.
[ QUOTE ]
This event was a response to Operation Destiny. Statesman does not take kindly to Lord Recluse breaking so many villains out of the Ziggurat. The Freedom Phalanx and Longbow were pushed back but i am sure even more heroes will soon take up the battle against the villains of the Rogue Isles.

Good. I can always use more zombies.

Or do what I do, do it both ways at once:
/bind F1 "screenshotui 1 $$ screenshot $$ screenshotui 0 $$ screenshot"
This binds my F1 key to take 2 screenshots rapidly, one with the UI and one without. Good for times when you're not sure if you wnt the UI on or not. Yeah, it takes up more space, but I prefer it this way.

Should have thought of that. Thank you for mentioning it. It is going into my bind file now.

I wouldn't count on that.

There is also a "Toggle Screenshot UI" key bind under the keymapping tab (down at the bottom with the other screenshot options). I have mine set to the number pad '+' for example. One key to toggle it on and off again. Just don't forget which you have it set at, as there's no way to tell otherwise.

You know...
That, right there, is all it would take to make a world of difference in the game. A little witty banter from your opponent. Or even some not so witty banter.

I was all sorts of upset....we didn't get Manticore in our area. Just War Witch and Positron. Though, Posi did give me a sever beatdown. I ALMOST got a screen shot of him standing over my corpse, too. *sigh* I did like the smack talk from Posi, though, until he bailed. Twice. Coward...
