I've noticed that a lot of the psionic powers that would be general buffs as arcane spells only have a range of personal.

What are the best buffs that psionic characters can hand out to their allies?

Not exactly what you were looking for, but Psionics has the benefit that Tatoos can be made from personal powers, but used by anyone. This is not shared by potions and spells.

Well Damp Power (CPsi) has a range of personal, but if you augment it you can affect "affect all creatures you designate", so it can be technically be consider as a buff.

And there is also Spirit of War, which is a 40 ft spread emanation, that affects your allies, other than that I can't think of another one.

Psionics isn't really about buffing the team. The only discipline with a lot of buffs is Psychometabolism, and those are almost all self-buffs. It's one place Psionics is lacking at.

Mass Time Hop.

This is a buff because it allows your allies to survive as you nuke the section of the planet containing your enemies with a psionic nova.

Metaphysical Weapon
Psionic Mind Blank
Dispelling Buffer (if you're not a PsyWar)
Power Resistance
Skate
True Metabolism (if you get it from the Life Mantle and augment it)
Psionic Keen Edge

This doesn't count various utility powers that aren't "buffs" because they are instantaneous, such as healing or teleportation.
