I think those are 3.0, given the auto scaling involved in that Darkness Cloak power. They could probably be upgraded if need be, I guess?

Those powers are all from 3rd edition, not 3.5. You can't use them with the Expanded Psionics Handbook.

It's kind of small text, so I can understand if you didn't notice it, but it says right on The Mind's Eye front page -
All Mind's Eye material released 4/2/2004 or later
is compatible with the Expanded Psionics Handbook.

Anything made before then is completely incompatible with the Expanded Psionics Handbook.

Does anyone use this? If it's not for Expanded psionics, what changes would you make to them so that it would fit in?
