Please change it so it has manifester levels instead.

?I have to say this isn't as powerful as the Arcane Archer, and really isn't as good. Hrm...
How about some way to Quicken a Fell Shot? Or +1 to manifester level, at the very least a PP progression.
And, I don't think Jump should be on the skill list. Even though it's your favorite, archers generally aren't... Jumping. They're usually standing still, firing.

That's steriotypical . . . last archer I played had +42 jump at 5th level, and could REALLY use it to their advantage. But whatever, here are the modifications:
Drop the class skill Jump, Tumble, Hide, Move Silently, Swim, decrease skills/level to 2.
Add +1 manifester level at levels 1, 4, 7, 10.
Make Psionic Arrow go up at every odd level.
And isn't using Fell Shot/Psionic Shot and stuff a free action anyway? Once per attack? correct me if I'm wrong . . .

On the jump topic, the last Psychic Warrior archer in our campaign also had boatloads of jump. That, combined with the Psychic Jump feat got him a commanding view of the field of battle. Since he could Metaphysical Weapon his arrows, it pretty well offset the to-hit penalties of being a couple of range increments away. Thus he stayed well away from harm, and supported the party very effectively.
I like the class, but I might actually drop the Move Silently/Hide skills in favor of other Psychic Warrior class skills being available to the Psychic Archer. Really I think it depends on if you're trying to develop a specialized Psychic Warrior class, or a totally new class path for characters to head down (as you can probably tell, I generally don't think of PsyWars as sneaky types). You might even break this PrC out to two similar but distinct classes, one sneaky and assassin-like sniper, the other more of a high-mobility battlefield howitzer.
