Probably not, you will out level most of them

But once you get to 25 you can Ouroboros and do any you have missed

It's easy to get all the contacts (I'm assuming you mean the 5, one of each origin per 5 level range). Doing all their missions and arcs, not without turning off XP.

Okay, this is a list of all contacts on the CoH side (looks to be missing Croatoa and the Midnight Squad contacts however). You unlock one contact per origin type for that level range. You can't get Juan and Linda for instance. It doesn't matter as they give you the same set of missions.

I believe that once you've been handed off by your starting contact, it's this next level that will introduce you.

I haven't done a lot of low level contacts in Kings Row myself anymore after I unlock and run the safeguards to get the jet and zero-g packs, I'm pretty close to level 10 and able to get Steel and Skyway contacts.

Well, as a content floor, I've found it's fairly easy, though anything but quick, to unlock all the contacts, and even run all the missions they offer you if you decide to hitch up the XP handbrake before moving on to the next batch.

Nope. When the time comes to give you a level 5-10 Mutation Contact, you'll be assigned one of those three randomly. But they all give the same exact set of missions.

This was probably done in the early days of CoH so that there weren't big crowds gathered around the same contact. But that concern never really panned out as an issue to be avoided. So, when they added the zone-arc zones (Hollows, Striga, Croatoa) and CoV, they abandoned the generic contact model and made the contact intimately tied into the missions they gave.

Also, you can't get all of the contacts in the first tier (lv1-5) on a single character. So you need at least 7 characters (1 of each origin + PB + WS) to experience ever mission in the game

Do one mission for Linda and she will introduce you to your next second tier contact. Do one mission him/her and he/she will introduce you to another. You can keep doing this until you have the max of 5 contacts in your level range. These in turn will introduce you to your third tier contacts, who will introduce you to your fourth tier contacts, and so on.

You can also get intros via the Detective but just doing the single mission for each second tier contact is faster.

Now completing these contacts and completing the story contacts for the Hollows, Faultline, Striga and Croatoa will definitely require turning off XP at some point.

It definitely is possible to do all of the contacts available to you now, but since there are two or three different possibilities for each Origin in most level ranges it is not possible to literally have every contact on heroside.

You already get access to every story arc with the 5 contacts per level range max solo. The alternate contacts you are referring to have the same arcs and missions as their associates.

Examples: Hugo Redding, Haley Philips and Dr. Trevor Seaborn all give the Fortune Teller mission for the Spelunker badge just as Athena Currie, Carla Brunelli and Everett Daniels all give the Clockwork Captive story arc.

[/ QUOTE ]That's... not what I said. You can only have one origin contact in the level 1-5 range. In all other ranges, you can get all 5 origins. Also, since the lv1-5 contacts don't have actual arcs, you can't get them in Ouroboros.

And you can't forget the Kheldian contacts, either. They have the same arcs in upper levels, but are different at the beginning.

Well, that is true. But other than beginning levels and Kheldian arcs, everything is available to everyone. Thanks for the clarification.

You probably meant to say Cimerora instead of Croatoa.
