I can confirm that Spectral is not required for the second arc - both arcs opened fine for me with just Pirate.

At 9 my boy and I invested in Pirate. Veluta said come back at 10.
We went back at 10 and she started us on the Phantom Phil arc. We just completed it (dinging to 12 at mission end), call her and not only do we NOT get the souvie but she's restarting us on the SAME arc.
Going to PM Cuppa about it, bug it and do a support ticket on it in game.

Hello Point of Balance,
Thank you for contacting the PlayNC Support Team. We have received other reports describing the issue you have reported. We are currently investigating this matter; please be sure to review any upcoming patch notes for further updates.
The current workaround for this issue is to complete all storyarcs assigned by Veluta Lunata. This does mean that your character will most likely be completing the mission twice. However, a successful completion of all mini-arcs associated to this contact will properly award the souvenir associated to this story.
We appreciate your patience as we work towards the permanent resolution of this matter.
Regards,
GM_Verbena

Already got that, but thanks.
Oh, Hermod...I don't know if you noticed this, but there's a mistake on Doc Buzzsaw's location...I think it should be -1326?
Just kidding. 
(You're very patient!)
Story Arcs:
"The Joy of States-mas", #533168
"A Mosaic of Shattered Dreams", #497506 (2011 Players Choice winner!)
"Television Presents: Attack of the Toons!", #373710
"Lightning in a Bottle", #376222
Small gripe: When you go to an unlocked contact for a higher level than you, his icon doesn't get set on your map and he doesn't get put in your contact list, so you have to go find him again later.

How about doing another update? Or better yet maybe taking the updated information and creating a new guide? The stuff in this one is kind of dated, and a bit hard to find since it's in the middle of the thread and all...
Two questions:
1) How do you UNLOCK these contacts?
2) What are those coordinates? Is that some kind of map mod?

[/ QUOTE ]
You unlock the contacts by gaining the appropriate badge listed. (Ex. To unlock Doc Buzzsaw at 25-30, you need the Bling badge.)

2) What are those coordinates? Is that some kind of map mod?
[/ QUOTE ]
No, just type /loc in game to see your current coordinates. It can be confusing sometimes, but it does give you a general idea of which way to go by moving and typing /loc again. Certainly not as good as a waypoint, but it does allow you to find the contacts.
I also suggest looking at Vidiotmaps for fairly updated maps with contact locations, etc listed. It isn't 100% right, but it usually is.

As my post says above...
We had pirate, went to her at 9, she refused to talk to us. Went back at 10, completed Phil arc and nothing. She restared us on that arc, had to re-do like 3 of the missions and voila we get the File's souvineer.
Now she won't talk to us at all for the other arc.
What's the deal? Maybe you need the second badge for the first arc and the first badge for the second arc?

It might be a bug. Bug it. But otherwise, from personal experience, I know you only need Pirate.
Any solution to the lack of souveniers from Lunata? I did it all, and nothing but the temp powers. I really want those souveniers.

Villain is no longer bugged. I dinged it a few nights ago, and several others have reported the same. Also, whatever Jaeger's level range is, it is lower than 30 just tried to get him a moment ago. I think that's actually been posted already, but since activity is fresh again I thought I would go ahead and bump it some more.
Great thread by the way I may have never found these otherwise :P
Slot machine doesn't give me its 2nd story arc (the one with the pet freak). Any idea on how to get it?

It appears to me that this contact is fixed on test. Here's what I did/know:
On live I had earned and used the 1st respec. I talked to Arbiter Leery and he told me to come back later. Still on live I earned and used the 2nd repec. I copied my toon over to the test server to test some things out and decided to see if he would give me missions, and he did!!! I then switched back over to the live servers and went to talk to him there and he was still saying to go do the 2 repec trials and talk to him later.
So my guess/hope is once the current patch that is on test hits live, Arbiter Leery will be working for everyone properly.

Hello Point of Balance,
Thank you for taking the time to write in to PlayNC Support. Regarding your Veluta issue, unfortunately both of her storyarcs are the set at the same threat level and it appears that you have already progressed beyond these tasks. So unfortunately you will not be offered this second group of missions. If you have any other questions or comments please feel free to contact us again.

I went to Veluta at 9 with PIRATE, said come back at 10. We did, did phil arc (had to do it twice), got souvie for that but she won't talk to us now for other arc for that souvie.
[/ QUOTE ]
So what this is saying is that if you level doing one story arc (which we got TWO levels off of it the FIRST time, not counting the second time we had to run it to actually get the souvie) then you bonk yourself right out of range for the other arc.
Arbiter Leery is fixed on Test. I used both respecs. He won't talk to me on Live, but he will give me missions on Test. This is not documented in the patch notes for Test.

Yes, this was about a week ago. In fact their response implies that she is NOT a level 10-15 contact. Since you can only get the missions at one level (in our case we were 10) then she can't possibly be 10-15.

Archmage Tarixus is not 25-30. At best he is 25-29 like regular contacts.
I talked to him at 29 but didn't have the Lorekeep badge yet, so he gave me the "learn the history" message. Almost immediately after that I hit 30th level, then went and got the badge when I had the chance, and went back and talked to him again. He was now unlocked but then gave me the "Your usefulness to me has ended..." message, and consequently wouldn't give me the missions.
I suspected the 25-30 thing might be an error since contacts typically end at 29, but I went on to 30 anyway without checking it. Oh well. Live and learn.

My guess is that all the unlockable contacts run in the x to x+4 level range, as I've read this a few times for the different unlockable contacts now, and I'm pretty sure I tried to talk to Henri Dumont at level 25 myself.
As for the normal contacts they still talk to my characters and offer missions when I am introduced to them at x+5.

And now someone has said that Leery won't talk to you if you haven't used a respec... <rolls eyes>
Can someone who has done the respec trial (or both) and has not used up a respec badge test this on the Test Server? Remember, you still have to be 35+.

I dont' know if it's been posted before as I've been away for a while, but - as of the patch that hit the European servers today (Jan 18th) - Veluta is a level 10 contact. Huzzah.
Pity I missed the memo saying this had changed as it would have been a lot easier to hunt ghosts after I'd hit level ten
