Honestly, I don't think putting that at the top of the editor bar is a good place for that.

I think leaving that at the bottom is the most logical place for those functions.
Like the Reply button has always been underneath the poster's post/message.
Putting that on top may confuse users.

Edit template postbit or postbit_classic and find something like this:

<div class="post_controls">
	<div class="postbit_buttons author_buttons float_left">
		{$post['button_email']}{$post['button_pm']}{$post['button_www']}{$post['button_find']}{$post['button_rep']}
	</div>
	<div class="postbit_buttons post_management_buttons float_right">
		{$post['button_edit']}{$post['button_quickdelete']}{$post['button_quickrestore']}{$post['button_quote']}{$post['button_multiquote']}{$post['button_report']}{$post['button_warn']}{$post['button_purgespammer']}{$post['button_reply_pm']}{$post['button_replyall_pm']}{$post['button_forward_pm']}{$post['button_delete_pm']}
	</div>
</div>

Move it before:

<div class="post_content">

Have you tried what chack suggested? If so, what's happening? Does the div show up? Are the buttons responsive? Please elaborate.

In the default MyBB theme? I don't see one. 
In fact, I don't see one in my custom theme. The Reply button is at the bottom as usual.

Not sure what you were looking at, but here at MyBB.com, I don't see a reply button at the top in the default MyBB theme.

Paste this..

<div class="post_controls">
	<div class="postbit_buttons author_buttons float_left">
		{$post['button_email']}{$post['button_pm']}{$post['button_www']}{$post['button_find']}{$post['button_rep']}
	</div>
	<div class="postbit_buttons post_management_buttons float_right">
		{$post['button_edit']}{$post['button_quickdelete']}{$post['button_quickrestore']}{$post['button_quote']}{$post['button_multiquote']}{$post['button_report']}{$post['button_warn']}{$post['button_purgespammer']}{$post['button_reply_pm']}{$post['button_replyall_pm']}{$post['button_forward_pm']}{$post['button_delete_pm']}
	</div>
</div>

After

<div class="author_statistics">
		{$post['user_details']}
	</div>

If you have a custom theme may require some css, If you need help shoot me a PM with test account.
Should look like this https://i.imgur.com/1aZcyW6.png
